. . . And tell me Nathan, when you refer to the loss of sponsors, are you aware of any particular reasons for those losses, because there must be reasons, and what are the connections any incoming Board members have which will deliver major and significant sponsors to the St Kilda FC, and address t...

Not sure that you can sue someone for defamation if he doesn't actually defame you... did Westaway actually say Butterss was on drugs? He said that there was rumour and innuendo... maybe that was more in regards to Butterss rumoured big nights of the grog during the South African tour??? This is ex...

I think you'll find that Burkie and Thomo will be the spokespeople on some matters regarding their board if they are successful. Gdanski wasn't too bad on radio the other day. My general view after meeting GW is that he has made his bucks in the trucking business and believes that he can move the cl...

Greg Westaway is a little like Rod Butterss was around the time of the GT sacking - no media experience and everyone came on here and rubbished him for the exact words he used - how he looked and when he stumbled. I thought that he really mucked up his image then and after making plenty more media b...

Oh, Greg Westaway did not say that the staff were incompetant in regards to function costs - but they are understaffed and don't have the resources available to them to cut costs. Apparently they can't even have raffles in the victory room because the dome charges for cleaning up tickets - things li...

No groups said outright that they will be supporting the ticket - but the feel was generally very positive - They had stories that I cannot post here though. There was at least couple that I reckon are undecided - they were good becuase they asked the tough questions.

For people that have decided on their vote

I attended a meeting today with Greg Westaway and Nathan Burke at Gregory’s Transport. There were plenty of things discussed and I will write up some key points as soon as I can. One thing that came up that I didn’t know: If one party receives enough proxy votes quickly, the other party will be ...

We live in an age of instant information worldwide, and we sit here sweating about what is happening down the road at Moorabbin. I guess the club needs to be made aware that many of the supporters are hungry for more information - when GT was around we got a lot of info from him through the press an...

Yes I would think that people are holding back I voted that I am unsure.

I am sure that the staff would be obliged to provide a challenging ticket with an address list of the members under the consitution, whether or not the club will pay for the mail-out I am not sure about - but it will be very much less than 50c per letter in a bulk mail of that size.

Just how does a Saint get a GF ticket if not a SC member?

I am asking this for a friend who is coming to Melbourne from interstate and booked the plane ticket just in case we were in the big one.

Actually, I wouldn't mind knowing myself also.

Thanks in advance
