Analysis Is Leppa the Right Man for the Job?

[Last of the Roys]

The secret ballot may be an aspect of the constitution of our club. On many boards, if as few as 20% of board members request it then it must be performed in this way.

In the same way, there are probably specific rules around % votes in favour of the motion required in order for it to pass.

Regardless, the vote and outcome has probably occurred by now and I expect that they are discussing the implications of the decision and how to publicly/internally handle it one way or the other.

I don't really believe the secret ballot thing - it was a good line from Hammo though, he definitely knows how to drum up business. Our Constitution doesn't make any provisions for a secret ballot as far as I can tell.

And as has been mentioned, some Board members were most likely connected via phone hook up in any case.

Why no Leppa at the press conference though?

No Leigh either

They're streaming the press conference....that means no more leppa.

Live on fox news channel as well

I expect Leppa would be more than disappointed, probably closer to pissed or at least aggrieved. If it were me, I say "Your choice, you do the media". I would have nothing to say at an official presser, and I would believe I don't owe them one. Leigh may feel the same. Officially the Chairman and CEO should be adequate representation to make a statement.

When's the heat going to go onto the chairman, incidentally?

So 15 mins out and no inside word from the horses mouth's? Or no journos running with the scoop that it is definite?

SEN saying lethal has just left the gabba, will not be sticking around for the press conference.

When's the heat going to go onto the chairman, incidentally?

Hopefully in about 20min if any of the journos have some balls.
