That's what the agm is for. Sheesh. I'd give the members nothing on investment strategy. Based on the questions at the agm there was pretty much none I would trust in decision making or even investment opinions. It's the process and risk management that's important for us Dee's. Let the Board and subcommittee do their job.

At the AGM in his interview on stage

Read the accounts and get back to me. For example Future Fund returned 13% last FY

Great point. I attended and first half covering the clubs business position was excellent insight. The audit report and summary of accounts worth watching just to see how strong the club is compared to most others despite not having 110k members. Parts summary of caulfield worked well. Poor Brad Green was nervous but showed passion which as great to see. Election results were overwhelming in Boards favour. Peter Ryan of the age struggled to get a headline and moved into hack status for mine. I left at the q and a with members asking questions who shouldn't have been allowed near a microphone. Shockers. Steven Smith was present in an understated way. Classy . As was printer believe it or not Good night

I'm not overly concerned about the mt scopus plan de-railing the MFC. It won't given ovals are crown land. mainly and there solid land tenure rights and obligations for lessee and lessor under the Crwon Land resreves ACt, unless the MRC Trust has its own Act. But what an interesting AGM it will be next week - maybe?

I like your style. Each season there are approx 3 drop outs from the 8 and 3 new finalists. (2.75 is the actual average) The Dees will be one making the 8 in 2025 for sure. The other two not so sure. My view is based on the revitalisation going on, maximum pre seasons for the list, injury position now, A Graders back on deck in excellent shape, MAx and Jack as our leaders, JT's recruitment performance in November, resolution of 2024 issues, the media will find another few patsies to hound for the year instead of Goody et al, ...........................

Saty can't have been serious. If so then that's scary.

Good call. EArlier in this thread someone discussed the poor pay at AFL for I.t. roles. Afl generally pays poorly unless your Gil and SMT. But their biggest current concern is lack of junior members and attendees and don't have a solution. Might explain a few things re this topic. Night games and midweek don't help but general young fan engagement is sliding due to lack of interest. Hawks might be onto something

Many thanks. I was just worried about another Marvel game but I guess it would still be at the G possibly.

Does that mean being a bomber home game we play them if again on the G as our home game? AND I still reckon the whole gather concept is a crock dreamt up by Virgin Airlines business development people. Dillon naturally fell for it When the outrageous price gouging stops I'll believe otherwise

Apologies to all well meaning Demonlanders. You know who you are (vast majority) I simply started this thread as a well deserved salute to Brad Green our new Chair. We all know why. But gee I and others have been trolled for who knows what by who knows. But my objective remains and looking forward greatly to the agm Go Dees Again. Sincere apologies.

And there it is. Nice!

Not sure what Board experience you have but can you re-write your response so its understandable. Can I suggest punctuation. Its works great. And stay away from preparing any meeting minutes and resolutions. Thanks

So you've never sat around a serious Board table or understand good governance? Some demonlanders drive me spare. Given the remaining Board is largely unchanged Brad can take credit as change agent for sure
