Oh come on. Half the board's leaking against the other half and vice versa.



What information are they leaking???...
And what is it that makes you so sure that they are???...

First question - all the internal politics that you'd have to be deaf, dumb and blind not to have noticed.
Second Question - who else do you think is leaking boardroom politics if it's not those in the room?

More importantly when are some our club identities, and ex-broad members, going to stop being drama queens?

Or is it just fans and hangers, on addicted to drama and loving the attention on social media?

Or perhaps the media getting a bit inventive with the truth..

Some one is try to stir up trouble, and that is an attempt to destroy the club or seize power which is probably the same thing.. 

If it is a disgruntled faction on the board, then vote them off, because they should settle disputes in house.

So I say,  show the Whinging Wendies the Door. they are not what our club is about...

So they don't have the numbers on the board ... or they would not be whinging... see my post below..

Why are the media pushing the Barrett thing so hard???... Is it true???... Is it more work from the Dibbies trying to destabilise the club???... Or just the old Bulldog$ click bait???... 

In all likelihood it’s not true... 

Ill say it again, these hack grub germoulists have had zero % strike rate with rumours about our club since the new board was elected... zero %...



If it is Barrett I can live  with it...

The idea that there are a host of top coaches banging the door down and desperate to get the Dogs coaching job is a fantasy, they know there (apparently) are factions in the club , no one wants to go to a club that is a rabble.

So if we are a rabble, we better stop being a rabble, unless we are happy to pick up the spoon every year....
 
I don't think we are a rabble, but there are some agitators we need to weed out, apparently...

If Zef's stuff is all from social media, then I doubt it is true, but if it is we are a rabble, destined to collect spoons

If by ‘noticed’ you mean reading in the media there’s a bunfight, then choosing not to believe it is not being blind... They craft stories for money... 

Is there an alternate source other than hotdog vending types that there are massive issues between the board members???...

Or does playing sh1t, and normal robust and sometimes heated debate amongst board members automatically = a political bun fight...

I probably should’ve started with that question...

What/who are the factions???... is it 3 vs 4, 2 vs 5... Lynne vs 6 other people  most dogs supporters couldn’t name???...

Well if factions have something to say give a press conference, or send members and fans an email...

Or if you have the numbers, roll the board..

We haven;t heard anything official, no one has said anything concrete in public, it is apparently whispers behind closed doors, or tips to journalists, the kind of tactics you use when you don't have the numbers or a strong argument.

If there were no splits on the board, no factions within or on the edges, if we had a United board.....

... then wouldn’t it be prudent, at a time when we’re trying to attract a major sponsor, at a time when we’re trying to attract players, at a time when we’re trying to attract a coach - for somebody, anybody, preferably a statement from the whole board, if not the chairman, or at least f***in’ somebody - to come out and deny the speculation? To come out and say we are united?

Again, at this critical time when we’re trying to attract a major sponsor, players and a coach?

And in the face of that we’ve heard.... what?.... from.... who?

You blokes are not very good at reading tea leaves are you.

If you are in a minority position on a board and you are not happy with the direction things are going  the normal practise is to resign and then state your case.

I don't see any resignations, any press conferences, or anything official...

In fact I haven;t even see anything official in the media even claiming the board is not united..

My guess the Whinging Wendies are irrelevant and will keep whinging while those in power will keep ignoring them.... if the Wendies have anything put up or shut up starting with a resignation.. if they are even on the board.

I'm immune to this hand wring over minor drama's at the club... there are more important issues in the world... this is a storm in yer tea cup if you take a close look before drinking next time.

Can’t ya just feel it???... the media throwing their toys outta the cot cos they got no good oil... Now we’re a club which according to them a war chest’  will  kill the next coaches career too... 

I’d fekking hate Barrett as our coach...

The big difference for Penrith this year is the impact of their pack, not an attacking coach... Cleary and co. have been able to play off the back of that... Their depth is enviable...

Results flow more from scouting and player development.

One area where the Storm copied our playbook, the Warriors stole some of our staff and we forgot the receipe.

Start out with the best squad in the comp, it isn't hard to win games.

And yes good forwards are essential, not a luxury item.

He’s virtually untried in NV’L... Did t make a fist of a decent Manly side, seems a blame shifter... Left his last club with little dignity (I hate talking out of schilling), and he’s the farthest person from a bulldog I can imagine... 

We need someone with a few years under their belt, someone with experience and a degree of success rebuilding, and that can play a part in attracting players like Ponga (3 years ago, and yes with $$$), while fostering and leveraging the juniors systems slowly being rebuilt over the past two years...

Anyway, we’ll talk more a the second AGM... I know I can rely on you to vote the right way... friend...

I don’t really care, just want someone to win and the rest to f*** off. I do think Lynn Anderson has a whimsical wish to return the club to something that doesn’t and can’t exist in the modern era. But the other side has Heaps.

Might be best if they all die on the battlefield.
