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.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?
