Yeah, I wish they'd do something about it but I'm guessing it was put in the too hard basket (at least I hope that's all it was)
no, a question was asked about stream lining the organisation and allowing the Football club to run the NRL side, the person posing the question stated it was part of the Print material in the election campaign by the last successful ticket including the chairman.
The reply from the chairman was that he did not believe that to be the case (the details in the print material) and that the way the club runs now is the best way forward with the League club funding and running the NRL club.
I will say that remark raised a few eyebrows.
On the whole, I would score the AGM 10 - 1 to the floor. Most questions the board seemed completely unable to answer.
The biggest one of those came from Denis, who asked if Mr Eric Grothe Snr had been appointed to the leagues club board via the Special condition in the FC charter (at least two FC board member must sit on the board of the Leagues club). If that were true, when Mr Fitzgerald terminated his employment at the club in May 2009, Mr Grothe Snr was not a member of the Leagues club. To be a board member of either club you have to be a voting member (hence a member for 3 years or more). Even if Mr Grothe joined on the day Denis was booted, he still does not qualify.
On the desk, that was meet with Mr Spagnolo attempting to cover the mic while he said to Mr Bently, something along the lines of "Did we check that". before he actually got to covering up the mic. The point was taken under advisement for further investigation.
