Where did I claim it was the worst examples?
Branch stacking may or may not result in worse candidates. It will however result in a less representative one

I'd say no.
For there to be a need to stack a branch, the branch (ie: the members) has to have the power to determine who is nominated/appointed. No, football club boards just seem to appoint replacements when there is a vacancy.
They don't need to stack branches. That pesky democracy which (theoretically) exists in political parties mean the factions have to do a modicum of work to ensure the right outcome. AFL club boards don't appear to have the same problem.

Of course sometimes branch stacking is irrelevant. The liberal party has on a few occasions just ignored the branches and the PM has done a Captains pick.
The ALP also just did it with Christina Keneally

This thread is all about the imminent demise of DAN
Old mate Dan b still alive n apparently blown the *smile* out of a budget or three. Obviously no idea how it's happened n someone musta been raiding the cookie jar while he was busy being the boss.
Well it has taken me a while to realise it, but you poor Vics really do have a moron in charge, ala Djokovic decision for COVID exemption
Who's the moron? That decision was made by a medical panel constituted by Tennis Australia following ATAGI guidelines. Andrews wasn't part of that decision.
If you want him to overrule TA, that's another story.
The decision is actually a two stage process as reported by a number of media outlets.
Yes the first stage is a panel of experts as per ATAGI guidelines.
But the decision then has to be endorsed/confirmed by the Victorian Government.
I believe it's an independent panel of doctors convened by VicHealth. That's the idea of an independent panel.
I hope it's overruled but blaming Andrews for this is a bit weird.
Yep, they are copping a heap of blowback about it now. I detest Morrison but this is probably nothing to do with him.
