Priestly's ex CEO of JP Morgan.
No worries.
I was hoping windows was going to tell us which one is going to cause him to get his pitchfork if they get nominated for President
In the Mathieson article it was alluded that it would be Kinnersly (thats how I took it) but its been suggested today it will be Priestly. Looking at their CVs Priestly probably makes more sense (not that Patt is any slouch).

Was thinking Craig Mathieson. Except he's been on CFC board since Oct '12. Only has another 18 months to go before his 12 yrs (max) as board member expire.

Maybe Sayers has been the problem all along....leaking tax info to multinationals, then leaking our game plan (handball at the feet, and bomb to a 3 on 1) to the opposition coaches

The quicker Mathieson's tenure is up the better.
Maybe then maybe his uncle will **** off for good!
The people that knowingly approve employment of this bunch, given their credentials, are the core of the issue at this club. Blindingly clear

Totally agree. Craig slyly feeding private CFC board business to his wealthy uncle, whose living the cushy retirement life on the GC.
Bruce then winds up and starts throwing grenades at the club. Mathieson's are toxic.
Sooner the stench of their stinking disloyalty and dodgy dollaroos leave our club forever, the better.

But did it?
Or did it suggest that his work was being interfered with or overruled?

Dept of Treasury referred PwC to the AFP tonight. Expect the Anti-Corruption Commission to open investigations where they start up on July 1 too. Bunch of new govt contracts awarded to Sayers' own firm since he departed PwC too.
In a couple of months, Sayers may be too busy to stay on...there's a question of ethics of him staying in the gig while under investigation as well.

Further to Sparky’s post above, and for those of you not yet playing at home on the PwC scandal, my view is that Sayers is a dead man walking. I am expecting a transition at Carlton sooner rather than later.

Contagion shows no one is safe from PwC scandal
Potential charges for current and former partners, and the loss of the Commonwealth as its largest customer, is a real possibility for PwC Australia.
Thought Pres did a good job earlier this week, coning out and saying we aim to play finals and backing Vossie for further 18 months
JP Morgan....
We really love the white collar crims don't we?
And Kinnersley, please
Wouldn't know
MLG made a point of ensuring there was zero transparency shared with the members on that report
I could do that with every clubs coaching panel and probably come up with similar results.

Needs to go. AFP and NACC will be all over him and rightfully so.Further to Sparky’s post above, and for those of you not yet playing at home on the PwC scandal, my view is that Sayers is a dead man walking. I am expecting a transition at Carlton sooner rather than later.

He has already stepped down from the board of his wife's charity. The same charity that received millions under the previous government and publicly endorsed Frydenberg during the election. Can't see how he can remain in the Carlton job at this point. Has zero credibility from a leadership perspective at the moment. The club needs clear air and he only has 18 months to run anyway. Time to go.
Cripes this isn't gonna be another big scandal for Carlton is it

Not really anything to do with the club that I'm aware of, but we'll get the "guilty by association" tag as long as he remains as our Pres. It's similar territory to Jack Elliott's legal troubles back in the day.
I think most folks in the footy community won't really understand the issue but there's a real credibility issue and I suspect some of our board members will be pressuring him to step down sooner rather than later. The fact that he's playing the Sgt Schultz routine thus far carries little weight as he was the CEO at the time of the alleged activities and there's basically no way he didn't know about a new revenue stream suddenly appearing on the books that was allegedly providing guidance to multinationals on how to dodge upcoming tax changes based on illegal disclosure and sharing of classified information.
The Senate Estimates committee are sitting this week and grilling every government agency about their dealings with PwC, so it's not going away any time soon. Dept of Treasury are gunning for them as far as I can tell.

At least Kinnersley's CV appears a lot more transparent, than Priestley's.
Three yrs ago, Robert received 'derivative' immunity by the ACCC, in a criminal cartel investigation.
Rob Priestley received immunity after cartel case help
Rob Priestley is the most senior JPMorgan figure to be named in the committal hearings where defence lawyers have hammered investigators and witnesses over how they reached immunity deals.
Here's the link for Blues current board. Good luck clicking on Priestley's bio. Or trying to research online, much, if any current info on him...

Geez....hadn't looked into Priestley's history. I know the top end of town is rife with dubious characters (I've worked for more than a few including NFL owners who are deplorable humans) but we sure do get our fair share at Carlton. I'd love a board spill right now.
