Did anyone decide which 2 of the nominees should be left off the voting? We all need to be on the same page here. This is very important.

Nads wants to roll Feltis and Lowe. Nigel wants to roll Robinson and Lowe. I'm with Nads.

You mean the Panthers team site. Were there last time I looked but people on PI were complaining about Nads and Nige not being up.

In fact just went back for another look. it is still profiles of sitting members only.

Until the Board approves new member applications they are only provisional members. This is law for all licensed clubs.

They are already on the computer but the members status has to change so they can vote.

I am surprised they would be approving members after voting had started. And I won't be surprised if these members don't get to vote.

Could be something to complain bitterly about if they don't.

Once again - lets explain it for the simple who don't know what google is.

Sanyo has pulled out of sponsorship for us, GWS and other ventures because a controlling share has been purchased by Panasonic

The people that need uppercuts are those that keep saying the club needs an uppercut for letting Sanyo go without looking into any facts.

But the club didn't find out Sanyo were leaving recently, in fact they've had nearly 12 months notice this was happening. And prior to that Panasonic's first share buy in of Sanyo happend some years ago.

Yes I know that was the given explanation but do we know if that was the real reason?

Exactly. Until mid last season there was no sleeve sponsor, Or NYC sponsor for that matter. 12 months we sit in the same place. Made worse by Sanyo going. Why not start looking last season?

Really? You are going to question it haha. The announcement came from Sanyo themselves.

They are no longer in control...yes it was the real reason.

Like it was the real reason they've pulled all their other sponsorships....GWS included.

Stop trying to make this something more than it is.

Because Mick Leary was a moron perhaps?

From what I've heard at least Gould is out there campaigning pretty hard and I think there will be movement made before the season.

End of the day we'll have sponsors for round 1...and that is all that matters.

The DT fluff crap today from Ritchie is nothing more than off-season filler. Ritchie is a known crap journalism who just makes shit up so I don't take much stock in what he says.

Manly didn't have a major sponsor for the majority of last year so companies come and go.

Lets not forget how long Sanyo has been with us and from my understanding there was apparantly a committment made over the last 12 months to maintain that relationship, but after operations basically lost control this year it was decided they'd pull all sponsorship so it was actually something that was put on them this year.

But as with everything forward planning hasn't been a priority in the past, I feel that will be changing going forward.

Yes he does.

Different agendas...yes...but all journos have different ones.

You've really got it in for Ritchie haven't you Mick?

And how do I have it out for Ritchie?...because I'm critical of two articles he has writen?

Its my fault he's written two BS articles in the space of a month? Hardly.... I'll call out crap journalism when I see it. Not my fault he's been on the receiving end twice in a month due to not basing his first article on facts and this second article just a space filler because he can't write anything positive about the game instead.
