There is a great series of scenes in the iconic Australian movie Muriel's Wedding whereby Bill Hunter's character "Ted Hislop" (the little Aussie battler) bumps repeatedly into the tartish Deidre Chambers. An affair being the subplot. Our President Mark Korda, the also self-proclaimed and son of a little Czech battler and Vice President Paul "it wasn't me" Licuria somehow have kept the Herald Sun's Michael Warner gainfully employed with a series of self-interested puff pieces aimed to retain their incumbency.

However, think back to February 1st this year when Michael Warner published the infamous "Do Better Report" to a tsunami of outrage from all the virtual signaling, woke, never made an error in my life social media commentariat. My question is this:

"Why would our President and Vice President seek out Michael Warner for such puff pieces given he was the journo that ultimately brought the club to their knees"?

Join the dots people.

Blaming journalists for writing about a report we commissioned and were supposed to release ourselves is barking up the wrong tree to say the least. The "Do Better" report didn’t cause us to mismanage our salary cap, make us disappoint the member base by trading out popular players with little return, lead us to a 2-9 start to the 2021 season or cause Buckley’s resignation. And that’s all putting to one side what led to the report, what made it necessary, and how badly we handled its release. So Warner’s article was the least of our problems.

You've missed the entire thread's point. KORDA AND CO. HAVE HAD WARNER IN THEIR POCKET #LEAKCENTRAL

There has been a rat at Collingwood for years leaking things to the press.
Please don't say that Licca is involved. I can't believe that..

The other question is if everything is above board in the circumstances what would motivate two senior Collingwood board members to be even be in contact with Warner? There are certainly other journalists with a better relationship with our club.

This is sadly a very good point member. The mind boggles.

It's logic that you'd think Korda (as VP) at the time should have been outraged that the club lost control of the narrative regarding the "Do Better Report" to Michael Warner. Not suddenly use him regularly as his mouthpiece to the members. Just my view.

I see ambulance chaser Barrett has also “ insinuated “ that Korda has found a way to make Hately and his signatures go away.
Might yet be something in it but how these journos get to make all these accusations without hard facts behind it, should be a crime in itself.

If the signatures are genuine then a spill can occur. The current board know that. Attempting to negotiate an outcome is the best move for them, but it doesnt mean that a spill wont occur. The legislation covering incorporated bodies is clear.

If Korda and Co were scheming and plotting from the get go, how do we explain Eddie's reaction to the Do Better report?

I think him and Bucks are in on the plot, only thing that makes sense, how else do you explain Bucks inexplicably telling Treloar that his team mates want him gone, despite evidence to the contrary and the fact that it was certainly almost going to be mentioned to the press by Treloar? Surely only an inside job explains it
