Yeah, I think the truth is that Justin was good at some things but not others and that probably goes for all of us. Richo gave him a small and almost unnoticed nod when he complimented the state our finances.

Yet we all love Brooksy so. He completes me. Brooksywatch will be a well subscribed thread this year. My hope is that he brings the same amazing marquee talents to Manly as he provided to us for the last 4 years.

If anyone suggests that Pascoe had any conscious intent to do any bad things to the club, that’s psychotic. He just made bad decisions, listened to the wrong people and I think in the end, as an instrument of the derelict and poor board, lost all credibility. He took his final breaths like a...

He was answerable to the board, he reported to them first and foremost. They are empowered to direct him to do their bidding. He couldn’t just do anything he wants, it just doesn’t work like that. That does not fit a corporate governance model. He could recommend things to them, that they may...

I don’t think the review will be released because it will most likely contain remarks, assertions and representations that are likely to impugn Lees and other peoples character and could be construed as being defamatory. And Lee has the capacity to litigate easily. So it won’t be published...

Yes, that’s a really thoughtful position to take. I duff the fedora. He was obviously offering things the (then) board liked. We had good finances and the COE was being built. So there were reasons to have him. And once everyone in power finally realised that Tim was indeed useless, he was an...

Well technically, the club didn’t do it voluntarily. It was imposed upon us by HB who thought Pascoe wasn’t doing his job as they would have liked ( or else he would have been retained). Because the report is secret, we don’t know what his shortcomings were as far as they were concerned. I...

That’s got the office water cooler written all over it. Wd Cheers.

That recently? Sir Dennis these days isn’t it?!!

That’s silly bro, there isn’t enough room for 30 receptionists at the club unless they are welcoming insects. The white-ant lady has been extra busy last few years. Of course Tim’s wife got a job, if that wasn’t dodgy… I don’t know what is.

Yep, wtf doesn’t have enough room in the server to list his stupid decisions. The resurrection of Tim beats all other chokes.

We will see how passionate Lee is when his sponsorship runs out and whether or not he embraces the club without a seat on the board. If he doesn’t want to climb on in some way, we will know where his priorities are. Lee said he made one mistake in office, renewing Madge. Well he made another...

Lee: Led the club to its worst era in its history was most likely the most inept and useless Chairperson in the games history based on results. If he’s true to his passion, he will continue to sponsor us without a seat at the table, like many other sponsors. And he can cross his fingers the...

Well Richo doesn’t owe anyone anything which is a good start. All bets were off when Tim’s wife got a job at the club as well. Probably earning $100k a year for feather dusting his office once a month. Took out the 2 green bins once in round 9. Rest of the time spent drafting non offensive...

Yep, Benji and Fulton almost got into fisticuffs about salad v cogger and I must admit, i was definitely a coggersarian. But I think after Brooksy, Benji wanted a recognised half. A safer bet than a promising youngster. Allegations of conflict of interest haven’t really materialised. Terrible...

Yeah I’d like to know as well. Hopefully Lee pulls the plug asap. I didn’t notice too much of Lees company on my members gear. It was an ugly logo anyways.

So an old work mate, he used to work at the Casino behind the bar. And a frequent visitor was one Wilbur Mason, the big goose. And when he was a big star and all that, the Casino had a Willie tab which meant free drinks. But only for Willie. Thence he finished his forgettable career, and...

I’m hoping we get some kind of halves outcome by round 5. But I’ll take it to round 6, in deference to your footy knowledge.

Reminds me of when we smashed the smug at LO after they boasted their 3rd grade side could put us away. Next man up and all the pompous fanfare and hubris they fed to the media all week. Reports of panther players getting frightened and even hiding because a few of our gracious matriarchs...

There was a lot time put into it, but I think Richo closed the deal. I remember Richo coming out defending Jerome publicly before he signed, especially his personal attributes.. that had previously been under attack. While the dogs stayed quiet and Ivan acted like a spoilt brat. It’s not the...
