Remove the Board of Directors

[Beerfish]

You, me and Grizz.

Imagine the ratings the pod will get

All news broken via pod.

 

[citizen-erased]

Well you need someone on the board with football experience for the footy director role

Agree, but give me someone outside the essendon fold.

Id have had mahoney before he joined us. Carter perhaps?

I'll vote for you if you guarantee me the GM of the VFL job

That would go against my no jobs for mates approach.

We're mates?

 

[boncer34]

Who's been calling who?

 

[dank420_]

Very good Ethan.

My thoughts on XC are well known.

I will reluctantly and humbly accept the position of CEO (should have always been mine anyway).

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

If this happens i hope to not see any past essendon legends on the ticket.

A nice boring, conservative set of CVs of people who have run and transformed organisations please.

No sheeds, hird, lloyd, o'donnell, etc.
No one that comes in with an aura.
Clear messaging, accountability and sound decision making.

I'd love that to win a rival ticket for sure, but do you think it would win? I'd like to think it would but realistically don't see it happening.

Too many nuffs vote for ex-players because ex-player for it to happen, sadly.

You'd need a good voice as the alternative president

Would need to sell the team whilst the team can focus on the job at hand.

They would need to run a campaign along the lines of "The players you love and know have been great players, but them being elected to the board hasn't secured us a finals win in 18 years, hire the people most appropriate for board positions". In other words, something to distract the nuffies and make them think about it in terms of finals wins instead of "I love that player, vote him!".

i've been thinking for a while that the board should be replaced with bigfooty posters sitting in a circle smoking corncob pipes and thumping a table with their fists

How do you know that's not the current board?

I'm just here for the potential for The Battle of Donbas headlines.

It all sounds like fun til you remember that the alternative would just be something demanded and / or created by nuffy supporters and thus would probably be much worse than the current.

We're rebuilding and just have to stick with it, unfortunately. We've had a rough month or so but now isn't the time to throw the toys out of the cot imho.

 

[Howard Moon]

Revealed

Essendon will undergo significant change at the end of next year.

A new president.

Highly regarded current President Paul Brasher reaches his maximum director term under the Bombers constitution at the end of 2023. 12 years.

Tnx tom Browne

Problem is that while I agree with you there are many who do not actually see the end of 2020 as a start of another chapter .

No No No - i can only handle one election a month

Ron Gauci

Voted for him in 2017. Would vote for him again if he ran.

 

[MarkJohnson#1]

Why are people panicking so much..?

So did I.

Oh wow was he unpopular around here.

Why are people panicking so much..?

It’s pretty freakin embarrassing tbh.

 

[Mootsy]
