Just curious. Is this a Carlton board rule or a Bigfooty rule?

Anyone know if this poster gets reliable mail?

Hi mods, my bad - did not realise that was a rule.
Why Ben King? He's not likely, he's very settled on the Gold Coast and by all accounts I've heard is very surprised at just how much he's enjoyed his time up here. Is it just because he plays for the Suns?They also get Reid off their books.
I expect Swans to throw the suitcase at Ben King. He seems the most likely to me.
They've got an amazing record of poaching key forwards from elsewhere though.
Charlie causes conniptions for defenders inside 25m resulting in frees like you wouldn't believe. Don't think I've ever seen a forward generate the kind of panic he does inside the hot spots, even Darcy Moore had no choice but to give away frees such is his threat.
We aren't actually 'owed' anything as members, let alone explanations. Enjoy the ride, and take the good with the bad when it comes.Will the club do a review in the off season? I find the reviews we have done in recent years that have resulted in new coaches have been focused on new starts but haven’t really given answers on how we will get better. Something clearly shifted mid season and I believe the club has a duty to review it so we don’t go backwards again and if we do we can rectify it sooner. As a member I feel we are owed an explanation and those responsible deserve the accolades.
They getting a special deal with TDK also.......errrrrrrr wait............Swans into Harry big time.
After news today, expect it to ramp up.
Yes, I know he has a 6 yr contract

I feel like Harry generates even more frees than Charlie.
Although Harry's are usually chopping the arms on the lead and Charlie's are more likely to be holding/grappling in a contested marking contest.
This is literally not true and a telling example of this sort of structure has become consumed by corporate culture.We aren't actually 'owed' anything as members, let alone explanations. Enjoy the ride, and take the good with the bad when it comes.
That's all very nice as far as having to state objectives goes but realistically, we aren't 'owed' explanations when the team which represents the club loses football games. What would anybody like them to tell us?This is literally not true and a telling example of this sort of structure has become consumed by corporate culture.

In extreme cases, yes. Usually, that would be as a result of serious governance issues, not over being dissatisfied with explanations furnished over a few losses in football games in a season. As members, we have no power in relation to the day-to-day running of the affairs of the club. Effectively, we are seasons tickets holders.As members we can vote the board out...
I never wanted them to tell me why they were loosing. I want to know why we are winning. There has been so much negativity around our football club for so long that now we have made a significant step forward I feel those responsible deserve the accolades. If it’s the coach and players great let us know. But if it’s a sector in mental health, or high performance, or something that came from the CEO or president then I’d love to be able to think to myself I’m glad to have her or him at our footy club.That's all very nice as far as having to state objectives goes but realistically, we aren't 'owed' explanations when the team which represents the club loses football games.

Nowhere does it says we deserve to be informed of the results of an internal review.This is literally not true and a telling example of this sort of structure has become consumed by corporate culture.

Charlie has 34 for the season and H 26 in 2 fewer games, so Chaz has more per game but not dramatic.I feel like Harry generates even more frees than Charlie.

Definitely worked in that ruck contest in our forward line against the praying mantis CoxCharlie has 34 for the season and H 26 in 2 fewer games, so Chaz has more per game but not dramatic.
The frees Charlie gets that I'm referring to are around the goal square, H doesn't get as many around the goal square as Charlie - if he did his goal kicking % would be much better. Charlie gets a lot of high and holding frees, the highs are interesting as that's probably where his lack of height works to his advantage against 200cm defenders
I suspect, as always, it's all of the above and to single someone or some group out would not be quite right. Would have to be like a bad Oscars speech where every single person involved in a movie is thanked down to the valetsI never wanted them to tell me why they were loosing. I want to know why we are winning.

What are we owed? I mean, what are we actually entitled to rather than what we just decide we are entitled to expect?Members are stakeholders in the club.
Correct.Nowhere does it says we deserve to be informed of the results of an internal review.
