Breaking: Macquarie Bank wiz to join Eels Board

[Poupou Escobar]

Profits aren't important mate. Hanging onto underperforming assets is where it's at.

 

[Maroubra Eel]

Get over it Jake. Your mob got voted out, gone, never to come back. You and your family need to suck it up.

 

[Wizard Sleeve]

I just find it really weird as to why Sharp would be pushing for Moss in particular??!! Are they mates? What's the Connection between the two? Was there an agreement between Sharpe and Moss that we don't know about?

Sharp has really shot himself in the foot. He should have shut up, put forward a whole list of true independent board nominees and their qualifications and let the LC MEMBERS vote.

But if we leave it up to Sharp then we might as well go live In China and Russia where communism thrives...

Probably for the same reason he pushed for Brad Arthur in particular , he thinks he's the best man for the job . Think you'll find plenty that think that Sharpes on track with that decision .

Didn't Spags just appoint Grothe without consulting anyone even though he hadn't even been a member long enough or something along those lines ?

 

[Swiftstylez]

Way to get your point across , you should put that on a bumper sticker .

I'll help shorten it for one. "In life there are winners and losers, if it sounds too good to be true it probably is."

You're way to easy :lol: p.s I'm glad you're back to this forum and you've got over your cry baby tantrums .... So easy!!

I don't recall but if true that would not be right!! Members should always be able to vote in the LC board of directors.

Don't worry im sure there's a thread round here somewhere about it where you were just as opposed and suspicious of EGS's appointment :sarcasm:

 

[Poupou Escobar]

So wait, if we were opposed and suspicious of Grothe's appointment, shouldn't we feel the same way about this guy?

its just like australian politics mate - half are outraged and opposed - then switch sides every so often

Not sure how that fits into context with my point ? . There's one guy being suspicious here. Think you'll find that the majority who opposed EGS were opposed as he wasn't allowed to be appointed by the rules for starters . The fact he's got next to zero corporate relevance was probably a close second .

 

[Poupou Escobar]

What's corporate relevance got to do with it? It's a popularity contest.

Otherwise why not sell the club to this guy?

Six months ago I thought this was our best option . Just shows how quickly things seem to have improved .

 

[Poupou Escobar]

But have they improved? Moss isn't on the board yet, and I don't trust our members to vote smart.

The worst thing the board could have done is tell the members how rich this guy is. They will hate him for sure.

I was just talking about the general feel being a supporter . Surely you'd agree that whilst we ain't taking home any trophies just yet the general opinion is that we're on the way up .

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Just don't f**k this one up guys. If it takes a few more meeting to get it done properly, that's cool (and probably desirable from what I understand), but if we bugger this up we really are a bunch of muppets.

Agreed, but we are Parra so don't be surprised. We need people of this sort of quality on the board.

 

[Maroubra Eel]

Yep.

I'm outraged, we have to stop these board members treating us like crap. We can start with the plumber Sharp!!

 

[TheRam]

My personal view is that we will stuff it up. It's just the Parra way. Sorry but I just don't have any faith in Parra as an organization or on a bigger scale the ARLC.

Almost everything about League is just so amateurish. Perfect example is the scheduling of the footy this weekend. Fancy stopping the momentum of the great footy of the last few weeks to put on the nothing events of the rep weekend.

And to think this was put up against the soccer grand final. What a joke.
