sexist is a word created by women to further incite anger and hatred from the opposite sex.

Cunning little darlings, they are.

Hey Bev - STFU !

No. He wouldn't shoot his mouth off without checking the facts.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

If u think a female president of an afl team isn't going to be questioned in some way, when her team is playing amateur football on an embarrassingly consistent level, then your an imbecile.

Personally, i believe her silence on the clubs issues isn't good enough.
Perhaps she has NFI about the heart of a traditional football club nor how to have any moral input whatsoever.
Maybe she's merely a corporate queen whose sole duty is to oversee the corporate operations of the club.

At the moment it looks like she has NFI what the job truly requires.
The RFC Is such a, "new age" club, all politically correct.
A shame they're not selling football anymiore.

Very disappointed to see Lloyd painted as a sexist here. Had Richo said this about a woman president I dare say the response would be all :clapping
The difference is Richo would never say the things Lloyd said. Get real.

touche  :lol

Didnt Gary March used to cop criticism on this forum for commenting on football matters and told he should just STFU?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Lol, sure did.  But in true OER style, let's allow a touch of amnesia to justify a good hearty stabbing - spoils the impact and point otherwise.   :shh

Different things I reckon.

Presidents have no business discussing on-field matters like March did occasionally, but they certainly have a role in speaking to the members about the football structure, coaching tenure etc...

They shouldn't be commenting on football structures to the media mid season.  These are INTERNAL matters. She already said that Dan Richardson was asked to critically analyze the football department. That is the correct approach.

I don't agree with that, when a club is in a crisis it needs strong leadership, no matter what stage of the season.

The problem with Lloyd's question is the fact he has never asked the same question of other presidents

He never asked the same of Summers (Saints) when they were imploding last season as they sacked Watters. Didn't ask the same of Bartlett at Melb, Koch at Port, the new Pres up in Brisbane

And he was deafly silent when the President of his own Club Little made that deplorable statement regarding the Bombers making a mistake "self reporting" about the supplements debacle

The fact that these presidents weren't questioned but the RFC president was/is the reason why people have raised the sexism issue

As for Peggy's credentials they are on record, whether people chose to acknowledge them is another argument all together.

The one thing I do think has got lost in this is and Peggy said it and Beverley O'Connor mentions in her piece, to question Peggy being in the position is an insult to those who voted her into that position and that is her fellow directors. They obviously believe she is the right person. So why aren't we trusting their judgement?

Spot on.
