Just voted Simon
Good luck 👍
P.S. There are a few on here that aren't members supporters .😉

Not sure why that would even matter but nevertheless, EFA

Actually in this instance the difference between members & supporters is important

A Members can vote, a supporter cannot  ;D  :rollin

Voted last night
Many posters here won't be able to vote

I would think the majority are able to. Certainly the ones I've met personally can and I've met a fair few.

Is it odd that Richmond's 2015-18 strategy paper includes photos from the 2016 season?  🤔

It contains forward-looking statements, but was clearly not finalised in the form published until this year.

I think that's odd.

What I find odd is they want to win one or more premierships
Does anyone have half an idea on anything?

Delighted to be a part of Episode 176 of the excellent Richmond Tiger Talk podcast.

I come in around 26m, but the draft discussion before then shouldn't be missed/ is the highlight.

Good evening OER'ers

Well, Members should have received AGM & voting information by email this evening, so the starter's pistol has been fired.

FYI:

I spoke about the Tiges and my candidacy on EON Sports Radio today.  From 17:30:

http://eonsports.com.au/programs/the-lunch-box/

Also a piece went up today on the AFL site, which may be of interest:  http://m.afl.com.au/news/2016-11-21/sensible-business-practice-for-peggy-oneal-to-avoid-tiger-election?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

Cheers, Go Tiges and please do vote.

Simon, are you "pro" O'neal and if so, why ?

U said - if you get elected, you will do all it takes to make Tigers play MCG Saturday arvo games all year...

How do you figure you can do that ?

Do you acknowledge that our list management/strategies remain as deplorable as they've ever been and has been the major bane of our existence for decades now? If so, do you intend to raise the issue with a view to addressing it and finally holding those responsible for it to account, especially given the virtual admission by the club earlier this that they'd botched our rebuild from 2010 onwards?

In plain English: Will you be pushing for Richardson, Hartley & Jackson to all be sacked immediately?

Furthermore, do you think it would be better to terminate Damien Hardwick's contract now and take the short term financial hit in exchange for long term benefit, keeping in mind the savings from not paying him out will likely be more than offset by a significant decrease in membership, attendances, prime time television exposure & sponsorship anyway?

Well you missed the point yet again, surprising for an expert. Let them get in the bloody door first before you ask the million questions and do you really think they will come out and give you answers to those questions......oh dear!!!!

So we shouldn't be allowed to ask or want to know their views on these important issues until after they've already been elected to the board? Ok then...

Go and structure your questions better than you did, maybe you will get a response, albeit a diplomatic one.

Do you really think your answer would be; yes we will sack Richardson, Hartley and Jackson and yes it would better to terminate Hardwick now....I mean really.

Fair questions I reckon.

Mr Wallace need not give emphatic answers but as I'm sure he is aware, much can be gauged from
any response under the circumstances.
