If you use Beams instead of AT as the example, the argument looks a lot worse.
Do you also tell people they shouldn't have bought losing lottery tickets?

Hatley wasn't working alone. Another bloke from the group has picked up the baton, Vic Nicholas

In a new twist apparently we're committed to 40% women on the board to receive $15m government funding. This was one of the reasons we elected the bulldogs supporter.

Could we dig a deeper hole for ourselves. Amateur hour at it's best again at this club.

Sack the lot of them.

Where are we at with the signatures
Are the original signatures being used to get the EGM happening?

What is a status?

I don't have any problem with adding 1 female board member to get $15m... it's a bit like those stupid "Would you run naked through a shopping mall for a large sum of money" memes. Why wouldn't you

Selection process could have been better but no problem with the concept

If Browne wants to make the clubs handling of Nathan Buckley's coaching tenure a rallying point for his push to become President then it's only fair that he's transparent on what he would have done differently.

While any genuine Collingwood fan would have felt a real sense of sadness that Buckley's journey at the club had ended I suspect that a majority still supported the outcome of Wrights review.

But how about Browne?

If a voting member is happy that Collingwood will enter season 2022 with a new senior coach but also intends on voting for Browne would that vote change if Browne declares he would have made the final decision on Buckley (and one potentially in opposition of the Wright recommendation)?

Alternatively if any voting member plans on voting for Browne in protest because they disagree with the Buckley termination would that vote change if Browne states he would have also ultimately followed the recommendation of Wright or personally believes it was the right call?

While McGuire on footy classified last Wednesday refused to provide his opinion on the clubs decision to terminate Buckley for mine he's given off the distinct impression over the last couple of weeks he disagrees with it and I suspect Buckley would still be coach of Collingwood in 2022 if he remained President.

For me the spectre of Ed still lingers over Browne presently and it's why I want him to clarify his position on this issue.

I dont know wtf is going on.

All's I know is if Browne gets in, he doesn't have the pressure of sacking Buckley before him.

Caro was reporting on Footy Classified that coterie groups backing Browne will be looking to obtain signatures from Collingwood members this week at the Fremantle game, in order to trigger an EGM which will be held around September if all goes to plan.

What this means for Nicholas and co, I have no idea.

The club legally has to share that information too, but they’re not doing it.

^ He met with club people and they did the spin thing and it worked.

But Hatley's work can still be used by those who helped him. Sounds like they still want an EGM.
