The "Worst" Form Of Governance - The Black And White Noise
Winston Churchill said that “democracy is the worst form of Government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.…’ And until 1997 when Port entered the AFL this “worst form of governance” had been the way the club had been run.

They get enough new members it won’t matter.
Kids of the day are trained to go with the flow and consume what they’re told, so weather the storm that’s all.
Surely some of our directors have been there that long, their ass indent is a permanent indentation of time on the seats.

Fortunately I'm not that desperate for a drink.id go for the open bar.
I wonder how many times the blog gets sent to the club and if anyone monitors it.More and more members need to wake up and press this ideology to the club. We pay our hard earn money and want greater say in the club. At the moment we are all just consumers with a board that has no accountability to its customers.
They say on field success is the highest priority in their power point presentations, but culturally it is not. Charlie Dixon was present at the CEO dinner on Wednesday night, and he still spoke to us like he has spoke to the media in the past. No heart, no burning desire just wishy, washy clubland talk that offers zero confidence going forward.
Exactly, membership numbers not that relevant these days with all the BS around them, membership revenue adjusted for inflation is, & I haven't seen any data tracking thatMaybe, but what's membership revenue? How is overall revenue from supporters tracking?
They hand out "memberships" for literally nothing these days.
I assume because the clubs KPIs dont include winning anything like, oh, say Premierships anymore.How the hell does this Turkey still have a ****ing job?
He invites the heat while giving a shit.How the hell does this Turkey still have a ****ing job?
Disagree with this. I think way more people engage than they ever have before in politics, but social media and the digital age has bred a level of absolute extremism in opinion that is just so different to anything we've seen before. Tolerance for others opinions is being eroded because disagreements online without face to face, escalate to new levels and make people back in their thoughts even more. The worst part is though that people on either side of any argument have media algorithms targeting articles and other internet info that just feeds their line, and so they only read and confirm their opinions. It also means the large chunk of society that might sit in the middle are completely drowned out by the extremist views rammed into everyone's faces.That's why democracy is also failing because fewer people are actively engaged with politics. However, minorities do win fights if they make enough noise, so I expect a larger BF presence at the next CEO dinner please.

This is part of why preferential voting is so important, and i'd argue vital to a well functioning democracy. It pulls the extreme ends of politics in.
No current season stats available
I would suggest it is rather compulsory voting as opposed to preferential voting which pulls the extremes in.
The extremes are so because they're minorities - strictly generalising but say 10% on either side of the spectrum - leaving you with 80% of the cohort where the vote is won or lost. In this 80% though there is also a reasonable amount of people who are somewhat apathetic about politics in general. If they don't have to vote, the proportion of extremists increases.
I think the political landscape in Australia is getting murkier by the day though given the rise of minor parties with a party able to put together a majority government on just 32.58% primary vote.
Back to Richo - just bumping this so this thread stays on the front page of this forum so he's at least getting the heat he deserves from somewhere.
