Our Next President?

[d_henderson1810]

Yeah, Daryl Somers as president. Who's his VP, Half Cat?

No. You should be vice-president. Then someone can comment "Who's that clown they've got as a vice-president" ? Loser.

 

[d_henderson1810]

no, steve bracks is his Vice President.

and that stupid puppet from hey hey its saturday is the junior vice president
while red symonds will now be the microphone bloke on matchdays

Hey, Hey, You're A Twit!!!!

 

[d_henderson1810]

Oh yes it is!

You commenting on this board was a bad option too, so go crawl back in your hole.

 

[crosby123]

Shouldn't get uppity just because noone agrees with your idea.

 

[d_henderson1810]

Yawn...... I contribute alot to the club each year and dont use that word "star" and "Daryl" in the same sentence.

I wouldn't use your callname "The Hoff" and "intelligence" in the same sentence.

Daryl's cooler than your mate David Hasselhoff. I suppouse you would put up Hasselhoff as the next president.

 

[d_henderson1810]

I'll give you the benfit of a serious answer.

Daryl is undoubtedly a fantastic supporter of the club, who puts both money and alot of his time into supporting and foing things for the cats and for that, he has my greatest respect and admiration. But being president isn't just a figurehead or a fanatical supporter. He or she has alot of responsibility in the direction that the club is heading, such as overseeing the appointment and structure of the clubs senior management. You mentioned both Kennet and Eddie, love them or loathe them, you can't deny they are movers and shakers in the business world. Costa is, and whoever replaces Costa should be as well. Daryl isn't.

See, this is more like it. While I don't agree, at least you have put some thought into why you disagree. Thought, however, is foreign to some others on this board.

Thanks for your thoughts , anyway.

Must admit I had a good chuckle at the first post, then felt sorry for the poor chap when I realised he was serious

 

[Cats!!]

VOTE 1 for Huddo!!

ahaha just joking!

You're not doing yourself any favours by being abusive 'Hendo'. Sommers is a minor television celebrity full stop. He and people like Ian Cover offer help to the club in the areas of their expertise. That's where they should remain.

Imagine a commercially astute CEO like Cookie taking riding instructions from Sommers. He'd be out the door in a flash.

Succesful clubs generally have succesful businessmen at the helm. We have with Costa and we should continue along that route. Though I'm not sure where Kennett fits in that scenario.

Yawn...... you still talking dopey?

 

[d_henderson1810]

Me Dopey? I may admire Daryl Somers, but at least I don't have such man-love for another man that I have his nickname as my callname.

When you watched "Baywatch" you probably got more excited about David Hasselhoff running along the beach than Pamela Anderson.

Sorry, what did you say? Missed it!

I read the title to this forum and was expecting some insightful thoughts and this is what I got Somers. My god will somebody please give me last 5 minutes back.

 

[Inferno]

I like when the thread started abuses people who don't agree with him, funny stuff ^_^

hahahaha - likewise. It's gold! He is very touchy on the Dazza Somers subject. I'm tipping we have a "celebrity" (i used the term loosely) poster.

Hey Dazza!

Perfectly said. I have nothing against Daryl, I just don't think he should be president.

Wait for Steve Bracks to retire from Politics and then make him Pres.

Steve Bracks? Steve Bracks? What are you on. You mean the man who lied about tolling the Eastern Freeway? The man who is enforcing crushing water restrictions while filling a false pool to give the swimmers something to do while waiting for the Olympics. Yeah, the city of Geelong would love him, having eight years straight of water restrictions, like they have.

You mean a man who has to consult on everything , even though he was voted in to make those decisions himself? You mean someone who stuffs up, and then blames John Howard for it, when it is not even a federal matter? You mean a man who was seperated at birth with Hymie the robot from "Get Smart" and matches him in charisma? You mean a man who hands the metro train system to Connex, who stuff it up completely, and then tries to restrict car-parking to force people to use Connex's crap service.Need I go on?

Put him in charge of things, and GFC will be stuffed. He will then blame John Howard for that too. He will call board meetings at Geelong to make even the slightest decision. He will close the carparks at Skilled Stadium, and force everyone to use public transport.No thanks. People may have made the point that Daryl is not up to the job, but Bracks definitely isn't.

Hey Dazza!

I just keep reading in TV guide letters and on this board how bad Daryl is. Bert Newton is put down too. It just seems that people these days that most of you people have no respect for TV legends and pioneers. You'd probably tell Don Lane to go back home to Yankland as well.Without these people, there would be no TV in Australia. NO, you bag these people but put on a pedestal attention-seeking losers who go on "Big Brother", s inging "never-will-bes" on Aust. Idol, and those talentless bums on "Home and Away". No wonder this country's going down the toilet, with the mentality of a lot of you. You couldn't run an ant-farm, you're that dumb.

Graham Kennedy would be turning in his grave.

 

[d_henderson1810]

No. Probably too busy kissing your autographed picture of David Hasselhoff.

Hey, the moment gay marriage is legal in Australia, ask the Hoff to fly down. I wish the two of you the best in the future.

You have no idea. Running a football club is a lot different to a celebrity dancing competition.

You would struggle to find a better candidate than Steve Bracks.

TV legend and pioneer? Bit strong, perhaps.

Get a grip!! Obviously your a big L Liberal who would want us all to be carrying guns and shot all those Labour polies. You sound like a Liberal election Advertisment.
The man loves the cats,and would bring a lot to the club.
