It will be a board of 8 if the change is approved at the AGM. Raphael Geminder and Ahmed Fahour are retiring and Greg Lee retired to provide a place for Kate Jenkins.
I don't know anything about Kate Jenkins but she has an impressive CV, as do our other board members. Does she bring any particular relevant experience or expertise? I am assuming that she is not aligned with the board factions, and that has to be a good thing.

Thanks DJC, I just got an email from The Judge outlining the changes. Sounds like we are changing as a club - hopefully it all works out well.
Reality always wins in the end.

Are you on his contact list too Cookie? We must both be special people
As long as it's change for the better . . .

great appointment!
as a human right commissioner, she would understand and sympathize the pain and suffering of tens of thousands of Victorians at the hands of the board.
Her job is to end that suffering and assist in bringing joy that only a long overdue 17th premiership can bring

Hope she does a good job. It isn't a bad thing having a woman on the board. Gives everyone a female perspective and a new opinion. As long as she can help the club move forward.
This digital world is too much for us insects to understand.

Cant be any worse than some of the numpties past, present and leaving ie Fahour....the latter was going to be Prez, this and that and didnt end up doing much apart from sacking a lot of postal workers....
Welcome Kate and hope you have a helmet and flak jacket because there are some tough years ahead and the navy blue natives can get very restless...

It appears that I am on it DJC- don't know what we did to earn that honour!
Joking aside though, I am starting to feel more positive about our club's future.
