Be on the lookout for Crazy John at a Richmond match.
Just curious if he goes.
Pictures would be good if you can get them lol
If you can scan his membership to see how many games he's attended even better.
PS: I need a new mobile phone - put in a good word for me :thumbsup

He has been there , sits in N 48 ?
Attends the luncheons/dinners in the room behind

Richmond President Crazy John Ilham.
Bull - (and I hate posting these type of cryptic things on forums) but trust me when I say we don't want that man anywhere near our Club.
And for anyone interested there was a pic of Mr Craxy in this VFL footy record with the President of the Bullants. You see Mr (the tigers are my team) Crazy doesn't sponsors Richmonds VFL affiliate he sponsors their rival Preston

Jackstar dont you think it would be good if some people look at the bigger picture sometimes before making comments like that of Gordon Bennetts?
-
Everyone hates Eddie McGuire except Colllingwood people.
Need to look at the big picture I think.
And mjs, Telstra , what a superbly run business its been , lol
Employs nuffers!

Do you think he'd be good for the RFC? I don't, and I've never met him ;D

I think that's a pretty broad statement - don't forget that Telstra has been involved in some serious stuff with Mr Crazy over the past few years ;) ;) I'll tell you when you buy me (another) beer

Another beer, have to make it soon :cheers
If anyone is looking for a great deal, our next pres has some great deals going at present using Vodafone :thumbsup

If someone like Mark Cowan can take him on board at the South Dragons then i daresay his business cred is of significant value to be considered at Tigerland

I didnt know that MJS works for Telstra :whistle

is it true that one of our big sponsors is less than enamoured with our performance Jacko?

Are you talking about ??????? and or ????????? I have heard rumours on both, WP delete if i have crossed the line here
-

Err no I don't think so..
If you want the Club to be ripped apart then perhaps it's the way to go - personally I dont want that and I don't want him.

Jack - you should know better - shouldn't believe rumours ;D.
There are so many rumours floating around at the moment its not funny that it is "funny".
A bit like that movie "attack of the killer tomatoes" - it was so terrible it's was hysterical and is now consdiered a classic :thumbsup ;D :rollin

thanks for the answer. Im heading off now...im currently addicted to strepsils, vicks, green tea and a whole host of other stuff. Cyas tomorrow...

I dont think the club would be ripped apart....defnitely need some sort of restructuring to take place....and re invigorate a club fast running out of options

He aint the answer. IMHO it is about Mr Crazy first second and third with the RFC perhaps fitting somewhere in the 20-30 range. People who are commited to helping this club are those work their backsides off without wanting the glory and fame. For his past exploits and (broken) promises Mr Craxz doesnt seem to fall inot that category
Besides Gary March - who is a Richmond person and has been all his life (read he's always been a member) has done an excellent job as President so why should there be any talk of him being replaced by a person who has only been a member for the last 2 or so years ???

Great supporter there - NOT - If u love Richmond give us some money and then crawl under a rock.

Tigers supporters have seen so much rubbish, they grasp at anything they think will get us out of our woes. That's what these ppl are counting on to push their own agenda.
Don't get sucked in, please!

Agree WP why change the boardroom when we have it stable. The last thing that we would want is to be a rabble on the field and in the boardroom, now that could be the end of the club. Crazy John wants to involve himself in the club why did he not do this 3 years ago when the club was on its knees with the Dud Spud and Clinton " Aberfeldie Essendon"? 3 years ago he would have had to invest in the club and that would be money from his own pocket which he was not prepared to give. Instead he is a sly fox trying to wait till GM turns the finances around totally and then lay his claim to the fame that are the Richmond finances and the off field stability. Hence he would also have all the advertising he needs with out spending a cent. When it will all go awry where will he be. Calling extraordinary general meetings and off into the night. We don't need selfish people like that after all we have to endure Bowden on a week to week proposition and have been for the past 11 years. Right now the club needs off field stability in the boardroom while we sort out the collision on the runway that is our on field saga and Richmond people who love and hurt for the footy club and are prepared to do the right thing by it and have been long standing members and supporters not some one who is on the bandwagon to nurture and promote their self interests. If it aint broke do not fix it. Crazy John is not the man to take us forward plain and simple. If he had any substance why does he not donate money to the club to help us improve our player development in terms of young recruits or improve the facilities or provide money to the club to throw and pick up a ready made recruit from another club who is out of contract. We are past the quick fix it has failed time and time again. Any one here remember when Alan Bond was pres? Leave it as is please......................

It was mentioned during the broadcast of Sunday's game on MMM that Richmond would lose one of it's major sponsors this year owing to its' lack of success leading to less friday night television exposure.

oops that didn't sound quite right... I tihnk you'd be surprise at what he's done behond the scenes without any fanfare :cheers

i have no idea how much march has put in but i have met him 3 times, nothing to brag about , but duiring thos e3 meetings and discussions, it was very clear that march is teh man to lead the tigers and be our president, no doubt
what the tigers need is not rocket science
we just need to make tough decisions
1/ get rid of miller
2/ get rid of aging dud players inc the cho
3/ somehow find money to get better assistants to aid terry
thats it
and recruit well

Maybe the club should consider approaching Russell Crowe. He's helped build up the Rabbitohs.

Jackstar dont you think it would be good if some people look at the bigger picture sometimes before making comments like that of Gordon Bennetts?
I certainly have looked at the big picture, and I don't know why you assume I haven't.In fact, I find it offensive that you think I would hold that opinion without thinking about the bigger picture. As for meeting him..no, I haven't.He is very much a public person, and I didn't realise that I wasn't entitled to make conclusions about him unless I've met him personally.
Over many years I have watched his media performances and his various statements,and read detailed articles about him. I believe I'm in a position to make an informed judgment about his personal qualities and motives. My position is the same that WP has outlined above and in the past.
I'm as certain as night follows day that John Ilhan as president would be a disaster for Richmond. People must not be taken in by "fool's gold".The key issue for me is to ask: Who would John Ilhan primarily be serving, himself or the Richmond football club?
It is crystal clear in my mind that the answer to that question is "himself". That, tigertailz, is a deal breaker.
-
Eddie McGuire is a self promoter, but no-one could ever accuse him of not loving the Pies and everything he does is for their benefit.
Crazy's got a lot of questions to answer in that regard, IMO.
-
Hey Gordon, you could nearly same the same about our coach.
Demanded $600,000 and left the rest of the footy dept dry.
Judged on performances win loss ratio ( and that all in business besides profitablity) you would have to say the wallace has failed.
As for John Ilham, i am willing to look at all options at the present.
As for Gary March, take your mind back to the Athens Olympics, now does that ring a bell. ::) Oh, how easy people forget and then want to bag people. EVERYONE is entitled to there opinion, but the facts of the matter is that John Ilham is a successful business person, like him or not.
Lets see whats happens, I might add on an not taking sides in this matter, just keeping an open point of view with the vision what is good for the RFC, long term
-
, but the facts of the matter is that John Ilham is a successful business person, like him or not.
Tony Mokbel has been a very successful business man as well. Made millions. I wouldn't want him at RFC, however, even if he wasn't "otherwise engaged".

Silly comment Gordon, you are a bit better than that my friend. have another try

I was just making the point that being a successful businessman doesn't necessarily make you qualified to be the president of a football club. Other things are needed as well.

Crazy John and vodaphone on board next year anyone heard this?
Is something up with Motorola, who were the commentators mentioning sponsors pulling the pin.
All ties in nicely.

Should check my posts for clarity sometimes :banghead I was actually reffering to Crazy Man :thumbsup

No way, he got rid of the Cheargirls for marching bands :banghead
Stormettes rule :thumbsup

On the Today show this morning, Crazy John promised $1 million to a player who kicks 10 goals in the AFL Grand Final or gets 5 tries in the NRL Grand Final.
How to get mass publicity without paying a cent :whistle

You can't knock the man for that MT, that's just being very clever.

perhaps he could start by paying his employees what they deserve.

It would take someone to have 5 or 6 goals at 3/4 time plus their team being up by 10 goals for this to get interesting. I think Ilhan's money is pretty safe in his pocket. Jonathan Brown was the only player to kick 10 goals this year and not against a top side.
