I met Loris, rogerwa and firthy at the pub, watching the game on the big-screen - I still clearly remember rogerwa 'spitting the dummy' and Loris telling me not to worry about him, 'he is always like that'. :lol: Anyway SS was discussed and I had previously recieved an email from Damien when he was ...

if we can't get someone like faulkner this could be a go. In fact stkilda with the clarke boys might be the best place for him. They have done some fantastic development work. I remember when young Ashley was in the draft and I was hoping we would pick him because he looked good. But it's just as w...

So do you think anyone who has reservations about the new messiahs will rejoice if the whole thing falls on it arse? Fair Dinkum. You think our egos are so big that to prove an internet point we would be happy if our fears are realised? Thats right i would be wrapt for the club to go down the s.hit...

I am probably not entirely sticking to the thread here but it saves starting a new one . . . and it echo's some relevance’s. It is my view there will already be enough votes in the mail for a change of board - so if I am right we the voters are going to be held responsible for every tiny little pi...

i dont want juddy! I know ur all thinking it, all the blokes on the forum want juddy to saints so they can perve on rebecca! :lol: :lol: Plus, i dont want goose leaving the club! How are we going to even know if Juddy will make a full recovery? Not all of us blokes want to perve on rebecca - just 9...

. . . SFF has John Gdanski and reportedly Ross Levine on the new ticket. Both incumbent Board members with total 12 years service between them. If this does not comprise intimate knowledge I’d love to know what does? Fair enough 'Joffa Burns' - but doesn't that just give credibility to the SFF ti...

Sorry for highjacking your thread Barkes

But I know of a 'St Kilda' member and a regular visitor and sometimes poster on this forum that also wants a ticket for the Grand Final - I believe that he booked his ticket(s) for a plane when still hoping the Saints would make it.

A very good sober post 'spert' but I would be interested to hear what you have to say regarding the following: • The disarray down at the club with the staff. • The marginal income revenue produced from minor and major functions. • The sponsors not being adequately serviced, and indeed one eve...

It was announced across all mediums days before - Collo and his senier staffers can't say they didn't notice it - we as the poorly informed public were all sitting on our hands waiting for it. Old Hutchie ya - running out of ideas was it?

stinger, i can promise you 100% that my name is not andrew either. i do not post here under any other name.

AT

. . . but have you posted here before under a very well known and largely respected name?

I didn't say that saintspremiers. The response to people offering to help has been overwhelming, no numbers were quoted. Perhaps they expected 2 & got 4, who knows. Anyway, it has been postponed at this stage. At the time of Thursdays meeting I was told that there was six offers from SS's at th...

Hey OWTS !! My experience at StKFC AGM's is that somewhere between 100-300 turn up. I'd expect the numbers at the EGM to be a bit more than that (500max) but many will have already put their proxys in (sticky nose factor). My guess would be that 3,000 - 3,500 votes could be enough to win this elect...

Telstra could runa Next G competion....based on who are next FF (The Next G) ends up being :wink: Yep . . . you never know who may be just around the corner re sponsorships. "When we did the deal, there was no mention of his (Ball's) contract with Telstra, which was kept from us until after we...

That could be true plugger66 - but the sitting board haven't devulged who it will be if there is one - so why must SFF?

I don't know this . . . but I doubt very much that SFF will produce even an outline of a financial plan. RB and remaining current board members would be able to pull it to pieces no matter what is was - supporters and therefore SFF don't have details of financials until the AGM. Even if they do know...

About a week - one year ago . . .

. . . come-on Grant . . . move on . . . you've had your go.

Are they the BEST person for the job??? That is what counts. They may be the BEST person for the particular role they are fulfilling. I assume there is more than 1 template for the structure of a board...business and or footy. Yes there is probably about 20 million templates for a boardroom structu...

In a way these positions are a plaything for the rich kids but that is the way of things - If the rich kids convince the members that they are competant and passionate enough to do the job well - so be it. RB was only a member for 1 year or less when he got the job - so I guess you could call his in...

Don't let this detract from the current conversation . . . but from the title of this thread it may be of use to some. PRESS RELEASE By the current board yesterday after their media conference: St Kilda board statement The board of St Kilda issued the following statement on Tuesday in response to co...

He didn't actually say whether he supports Archie Fraser specifically - just that the staff have been having problems as mentioned in my post above. But he did infer that AF was getting somewhere with the council through his 'bluff' and the whole thing was undermined by RB. I remember at the time th...

The SFF have put an update on their website that makes their stance on their issues clearer than I could from just one meeting with them but I will write the heading down and see if there is anything I can add: http://stkildafootyfirst.com/ Business developments and profits My understanding of what ...

The incident may or may not have happened exactly as explained in the hun but I for one have been wondering how difficult it must be for our staff through all this - Many of them are overworked and under-resourced and are watching first hand the memberships, functions and sponsors performing in a wa...

Hi there 'markinUSA' I strongly suggest that you send a message to SFF (from their website link) - be assured that it will be read and discussed. Now is the best time to speak out - they have processes in place for members feedback. GW spent some time outlining how the membership costs have been tri...

Peanut did Westaway say anything today about Burke being the choice for TFS appearance? time. No it wasn't mentioned - I have the feeling that with both Burkie's and Thomo's media experience, they will get all the media work that is relevent to footy. i.e. tv footy programs etc - just speculating b...
