Vale Graham Duff. Passed away at 80.

Never let the facts get in the way of a good story!

 

[The Brady Bunch]

"He was also chairman of North Melbourne between 2005-2007 and helped keep the Roos at Arden St as intense pressure built on the club to relocate to Gold Coast."

He did what now?

De mortuis nil nisi bonum

Indeed, he told us to take "relocation" out of our vocabulary, yet all the while he was planning to exire ad solis statum.

 

[sross]

Get the story right. He shafted us. You guys on here know better than anyone

Don't speak ill etc but... is this the alternate timeline a la Dark?

In this world was there non lobster consuming version of Graham Duff who was just a selfless freedom fighter?

There was a great photoshop of a True North mag that someone in here did, that featured a headline along the lines of “Duff’s Chairman report - Lobster BOG”. Can’t find it on google. Anyone have it lying around?

If you have an issue with the article then take it up with Mark Brayshaw.

True North Magazine is the link to the post. Although the pic isn't showing anymore, unfortunately. The poster doesn't post anymore, at least under that name.

My condolences to his family but he ‘helped keep the Roos at Arden Street’??? WTF?

My mum said if you have nothing nice to say ......

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Genuine rewriting of history going on in that article.

He was the king of the white ants.

Clearly your mum isn't on Bigfooty!

 

[Marstermind]

Whilst I feel for his family and friends, everyone - even the dead - are owed the truth.

To that end, that obituary is disappointing to say the least.

 

[Krakouer Bonar]

Whilst the passing of someone is always touched with sorrow, this guy was always the Invisible Chairman.

The worst chairman in the last 30 years.
He’s no friend of North’s.
Condolences and the less said the better.
