Ok I think you are using harsh adjectives to describe Pahoff.
Do I think he is helping the cause for a new coach? I personally dont think he is helping but in saying that I dont think he is harming either. I dont beleive that a petition regarding purely the board should play A MAJOR role in signing a new coach. You cant help but say that you dont agree with him in principle, because if you dont then it would mean you support Casey which requires no arguement because you lose hands down (use results tell all method to beat opponent in arguement).
Yes his method has been critisized and tahts fair enough. I dont beleive he wants to be involved in the new ticket, hence no need to reveal anything about himself and thats fair enough as well. I think he is just like me....FED UP with crap. After going to the AGM this year, I was furious....difference between us: He took the extra step of doing something about it.
I honestly beleive he wants a better Richmond....which is what we all do. To use 'slimy catalyst' is extremely harsh because Casey wont roll over so its going to require a push....he is doing that.
Note: Schwab resigning will do more harm to our coaching situation than any petition will do.
