Who,s Dean Peter ?
I'm joking Cretylus. Unfortunately - what happens at the club is no joke. There won't be a board spill and there probably won't be a challenge as everyone would be too worried about losing Mathieson money and/or Pratt money (read Jewish money). Can the two co-exist? I'm not sure. Someone may have to fall on their sword. But who? Who has the numbers? Can one strengthen their board position over the other and if so - how is this to the betterment or detriment to the club?
Let's see what we've got - this is getting a little like 'Survivor' now...who is in whose alliance?
In the red buffs, the Mathieson Tribe.
Mark LoGiudice
Ryan Trainor
Luke Sayers
Craig Mathieson
Marcus Clarke
In the blue buffs, the Pratt Tribe.
Ruffy Geminder
Zac Fried
Ahmed Fahour
Jeanne Pratt
Adrian Gleeson
Sticks is going - but if he's one of the greatest captains we've had - he's also one of the clubs' greatest fence-sitters. He will side with anyone who has the numbers. In Survivor parlance - you don't vote Sticks out, you just keep him in your alliance. He's not going to win the million dollars, but you don't want him on the jury either. Fortunately - he's out. He doesn't get a vote.
If Greg Lee, a 9-year board member, has the deciding vote - I think he sides with the Mathieson's. That'd make it a 6-5 split. Lots of questions still to be answered. Do Lee, Gleeson and Clarke go around again? Does new blood come onto the board? Will it be a 6-6 split. Hung club? Seems appropriate.
As I said the other day - almost worth buying a membership for the AGM itself.
