    News Lions AGM and Board Elections

    Howdy folks. I’m likely moving overseas next year so straight away it would not be appropriate for me to nominate for the board this time round. On top of that I’ve got to say that personally I agree with many here. While I believe regular board renewal is critically important to the long...

    2015 Brisbane Lions Board Elections - Democracy comes to town Dec 17th

    As expected it was going to be pretty tough for me this time around. Congratulations to Ross, he was a very worthwhile candidate. I really hope he can help build some bridges to the Fitzroy community. Huge thanks to everyone who voted for me this time around...and to those that didn't, you...

    2015 Brisbane Lions Board Elections - Democracy comes to town Dec 17th

    I think a great deal of what I'm arguing for is not very controversial. It's just that my expertise is in areas the board has not focused on previously. So I don't think much of it would actually meet a lot of opposition. I also have a bit of a knack for arguing about this sort of stuff and...

    2015 Brisbane Lions Board Elections - Democracy comes to town Dec 17th

    Governance reforms As I said in my last post I think members are still uneasy about the events of last year, I think it's important they have full confidence in the board and its processes restored. It's great that things are starting to turn the corner at the club, but none of the structural...

    Some fantastic discussion here guys, exactly the sort of things I was talking about. This is what I mean when I talk about engagement and putting the fans first. These are the sorts of conversations I think the club should be having with its members all the time. I do agree that there is a...

    2015 Brisbane Lions Board Elections - Democracy comes to town Dec 17th

    Accountability and transparency The one clear message that I took away from both the Springfield survey we ran and the Lions Members' Forum the club ran in September was that a great many members are still have serious trust issues in the club. The events of last year are obviously still fresh...

    2015 Brisbane Lions Board Elections - Democracy comes to town Dec 17th

    Hmmm...Looks like it was in interesting discussion. I've only actually worked in the public sector in the past eight or so years. Previous to that I worked for major record companies and was director of a management company that looked after major label bands and record producers. I have a...

    My apologies I meant Deed of Support not Deed of Agreement. A different document. http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/lions-push-for-games-in-melbourne-20130314-2g3jh.html As you say the Deed of Agreement had been around prior to this. There is no facility to edit my original post so I am...

    2015 Brisbane Lions Board Elections - Democracy comes to town Dec 17th

    Hello good people of BigFooty. I'm happy to answer questions you may have about my candidacy for the Lions Board. I can see the discussion has turned to the club's engagement with our Victorian members. So I may as well start there: The first Lion's Roar campaign we ever ran (back in 2012)...
