In accordance with the Constitution of the Club, the positions of Peggy Haines, Gary March, and John Matthies are to be filled by an election.

With the Club making a $1 million profit you wouldn't think there'd be any challengers.

No election this year.

From the club email:
Richmond also announced today that the board stability seen at the club in recent years will continue in 2008, as President Gary March and directors John Matthies and Peggy Haines will all be reelected unopposed at the forthcoming
AGM.

[one-eyed]

So who from OER is going tonight?

[mightytiges]

It'll be interesting how many people do turn up tonight. All the positivie  off-field annoucements probably mean not many if last year is anything to go by.

[one-eyed]

For those who went last night could you give us a summary of what was discussed on top of what's been said in the Herald-Sun. Any interesting snippets of news or questions from the floor?

I intend to run for the RFC board in late 2010 as part of a revolutionary ticket, we are gonna wait till RFC are seriously closer to premiership glory and then we will come in and claim the glory at the last minute.

I know Blaisee and his mates will be peeed off, they will not vote for us, but we dont care, the revolutionary multicultural vote will deliver us a landslide victory.

We will stand infront of the adoring crowds at our victory party outside of the traditional home of Richmond the Punt Rd Oval, Our election team waving in victory to the Richmond throng, We will promise them the world and a flag, they will cheer, they will sing the song, the revolution will have begun.

Blaisee and his mates will say we had nothing to do with it, but history will record that we were the big powerbrokers of our time and the centrepiece of the Richmond renaissance. We will be famous  . On Grand Final day we will parade around like key powerbrokers, drinking beers cheering our success acknowledging our hard work and efforts over all these years 

Our opponents will say we stole the limelight at the last minute but as I said we dont care.

According to my sources Me, HT, xXx, Jacko and anybody else who wants some glory - well they can be in it as well. We're not selfish, we will share the spoils of victory, the spoils of grandeur, fame and limelight ...with our fellow tiger supporters. Vote 1 the Revolution.
