yeah, classic power vacuum. there's also a power struggle going on which tends to distract people from their real work.
Mark Korda was on AW and SEN yesterday saying everything’s great. Well, off field anyway...
hehe.. yeah sure Mark. Geoff Browne (who is close to Maguire) is the guy who is assembling a ticket now according to Caro.
Right, but the problem is Mark Korda was Eddie's vice pres, the board is all his appointees, and Geoff Browne is his best mate. Eddie really is everywhere
I know, isn't it great. Civil War within Collingwood will keep everyone amused. We might even win another 1 or 2 premierships without anyone noticing
Well that is very true! Amazing they went from arsing that prelim victory over us and losing the GF by a kick to this current state. How the mighty have fallen.
very good brodders
On Bridie O'Donnell, she's smart, young, and highly qualified having a strong background in elite sport administration. She's also a medical doctor with a specialisation in behavioural change. Whether she's a Collingwood supporter or not is irrelevant.
Of course all the anti-woke brigade there (and here) can focus on is that she's a token woman/lesbian/whatever. She's much more than that.
But still it's sad about the Collingwood board and everything.
I think being a Collingwood supporter is relevant. Why would you want to go on a clubs board that you don’t even barrack for?very good brodders

Because it's a business thing. If you are successful and good at what you do, you get invited onto boards, and you wouldn't knock it back. It's part of the general corporatisation of football clubs which is in some ways a bad thing, but that's how it's going these days.
Great exposure, access to all the business networks that the club has, etc etc. Boards are becoming increasingly important and increasingly professional.
Afl.com just called Taylor adams a gun
it’s become a very cheap and easy term

It was worse last week. Headline was Melbourne drop gun. I was intrigued, have they dropped Oliver, Gawn, May, Lever, Petracca. Nope they'd dropped Jake bloody Melksham. Talk about clickbait. A bit like the clickbait that was sent via notifications today, something like "Selwood quits Cats", only to find out it was Troy Selwood.
