[Fenway]

Rob Hazel from Ch 10 has just tweeted a pic of "the power base leading the coup against the current @brisbanelions board at next month's EGM."

Alastair Lynch is in there, and Tony Kelly as well.

Here is the pic:

Wow. Some big names in that room.

 

[Harry Haller]

Anyone able to give a who's who of the afore posted photo?

 

[adey115]

"The Lynch Mob".

Can anyone else name the rest in that shot.

 

[notting18]

Mac Tolliday is in there, I'm pretty sure.

With the people being up for election being seated - Thornton, Matthews, Williams, Power and I would assume Smith.

 

[Mr Ripper]

David Liddy and John Pearce are two I can make out. Is that Billy Stephen there as well?

 

[adey115]

Don't think its Billy...

 

[adey115]

I've got:

Seated - Thornton, Lethal, Williams, Power, Dr Smith (the Good Doctor, not that crap one we know)
Standing - ?, Lynchy, Tolliday, ?, Liddy, Poulter, Pearce, Kelly

(edited as we name the names)

 

[Fenway]

The four at the back on the right are, I think, David Liddy (former director and I believe still MD of BOQ, the Lions' old sponsor), Len Poulter (former director and founder of Lenard's chicken), John Pearce (Former no.1 ticket holder), and Tony Kelly (former Chairman). I think that's right. I'm not sure about the others, apart from Alastair Lynch. I assume two of them are Allan Smith and Ross Thornton.

Seated - Thornton, Lethal, Williams, Power, Dr Smith (the Good Doctor, not that crap one we know)
Standing - ?, Lynchy, ?, ?, Tolliday, ?, ?, Kelly

Standing - ?, Lynchy, ?, ?, Tolliday, ?, Liddy, ?, Pearce, Kelly - according to a bit of Googling

Okay so that photo is pretty much an election winner. Wow.

Looks like a fresh start to me!

 

[Lace Out]

Deal me in.

Lynch standing behind Lethal. Interesting.

 

[lukiuslion]

Absolutely love this photo - one thing I feel that is missing is a couple of Woman. This is an election and who knows what Linda whats her face being in support of the incumbent might have on our wonderful Female members. And of coarse - any good functioning board or team simply needs female representation, unless you are the federal government of Australia! other than that... BRING IT ON!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mr Ripper]

Not overly excited by TK's presence, to be quite frank. Otherwise all systems go!

Could be worse... Bowers ain't there!

 

[Lace Out]

Tony's just fetching the lattes anyway.

 

[Mavlions1961]

I heard on the radio that Downie is in there also, don't know what he looks like.

 

[Lace Out]

Will be interesting to see Henry's picture.

 

[Hollow Knight]

I heard on the radio that Downie is in there also, don't know what he looks like.

Maybe he took the photo because he isn't in it

 

[Angus72]

I was listening to 4BC and they crossed to Peter Psaltis at the press conference and he mentioned that Graham Downie was there also but looking at that picture it doesn't look like he is.

Yeh thats where I heard it, Greg Carey's comments ring true with us all, the current board should just step aside, it really is becoming a joke, maybe this gathering will show AJ and his mates that they have no chance.

What's everyones take on Alastair Lynch being present??

Is that the future CEO standing second from the left

Looks like a fresh start to me!

A fresh start needs fresh faces. Out with Williams/Power in with Alistair Lynch/Leigh Matthews for a Fresh Start.

 

[Elixuh]

Leigh has a lot of heart for coming back to help us out. I'm sure there are plenty of other things he could be doing to fill in his days.
