What makes him an overlord and what's with bringing in stockbrokers and insurance salespeople?

We need more lawyers on the board :lol:

I think Howcroft was very entertaining at AGMs for a while and then things stopped being funny.

Not often you are wrong WJ but on this occasion you are way off the mark.

Clearly there a need for more Accountants on the board.

After all the Pen is mightier then the sword!

Plus it may stop the Club giving out all its money to incompetent people as our lawyers seem to be unable to prevent.

    Steve Morris is a very close family friend of mine, so naturally I'm ecstatic about his appointment. He's been involved with the club for years, and is just about as passionate as you can get. Might be a biased view, but he's a good acquisition - Very smart man.

    Can't even get both his kids to support the club...

    Just starve the kid, Steve! That'll learn him.

    Yes, young Sammy is a St Kilda supporter unfortunately. Might be the best time to try and convert him!

    Howcroft out, Morris in.

    As always, we thank him for his service, and welcome our new overlord.

    Forever, will they be tied to the critical mass of our shared failures.

    Huzzah!

    Good to see...

    A bit more regeneration to go and I would like to see someone representing our younger and future members on the board with the next appointment. We need people who are right on top of new media and in touch with young peoples viewpoints. With an older membership base we really need a different perspective to help us move forward.

    I'm reasonably young, rjay...

    I think we just need to start winning to entice younger supporters.

    That would be a start, but it would also be good to spread the age profile of the board.

    I just think I'm young 'rpfc', my birth certificate keeps adding years on though...it must be lying or else I might, just might be deceiving myself.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
