I asked a curly question LH.  I asked how members were supposed to make a decision on who to elect to the Board if candidates were only allowed to submit a 300 word description on their credentials.

When i logged on last night it kept freezing so I'll watch today.  I didn't expect an answer to my question but Roffey ducks anything hard.  I've lost a lot of respect for the Board.  Thank heavens the players have higher standards.

That was a good question, giving the limitations placed on candidates have been questioned elsewhere on this forum.  I had a sense a lot of 'curly' questions never saw the light of day. 

Not a curly question but I would like to have known what Nathan Jones is up to career wise.   I'm sure he is busy with his family but his adoring dee fans would like to know a bit more now that it s nearly 5 months since he retired.

It saddens me that you are losing respect for the Board.  I'm not at that point yet but am having doubts about their methods and direction.

If they stay unified it may not affect the players or the football department.  That may be a big 'if' given the leaking that is going on.

To me it was like a warm fireside chat, albeit seated at tables.  Are dee fans so satisfied that no 'curly' questions were raised?

Reading that yes there is inference to the question and on the question of the building I think you would find confidentiality agreement would be in play as there would be stakeholders to consider in the proposal.

I can answer a few of your questions! 
 

I went to dinner with the Dees last Friday night which was awesome. 

To answer your earlier question and speaking of leaks, I was at the urinal lol and all the boys came in at same time so there I was suddenly next to Trac! They were talking about Burgo and I asked Trac if we were going to miss him. He very quickly replied no we are in real good hands with Selwyn.

Jonesy was also there and whilst he has his feelers out for a few different gigs which he didn’t divulge in, he is preparing for a triathlon. This was not discussed at the urinal ☺️

I forgot, and being an hour behind in FNQ, usual debacle....watch it tomorrow...

Me to Jontee.!!

I was quite happy with the format, Benny Gibson has really stepped up in his role and managed the meeting admirably. Perty went over the review process again and also explained the difficulty and ramifications caused by cutting $3m out of the soft cap, etc.

Goody, Richo, Tim Lamb and Selwyn spoke eloquently on the FD and fitness regime and Tracc spoke confidently about our future and Stinesr spoke well on behalf of our AFLW team.

I wasn’t expecting any dirty Laundry to be aired or home ground announcements. The Club is holding the line and not being sucked into any slanging matches that cannot be won on social media.❤️💙💕

Did you sneak a peak? I’m betting it is magnificent 😝

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
