Haha....Bev Knight has her good points, but IMO, she is a f****** leech. I still remember her protests while she was still at the club about the handling of Richard Cole (non selection in the team). That's right, the bloke who turned up to pre-season training with diabolical skin folds and who's attitude wreaked of "I don't give a shit". At that moment Beverley, you lost me completely.
My experience is that an indigenous player has to be absolutely sensational to get onto a list.
Richard Cole, Justin Murphy, Lachlan Ross, Shawn Lewfatt, Russell Williams, Nathan Lovett-Murray, Jarrod Atkinson, Willie Dick, Mark Williams were all "sensational" were they?
Knight said she tried for years at Essendon, where she stepped down as a director in 2010, to introduce a program to groom future indigenous board members.
''It's absolutely crucial … because that's where the decisions are made,'' she said yesterday.
''So until you have someone representing that group, you're not really serious.
Yes, and while we're at it, lets recruit an Irish board member to represent the Michael Quinn types, A Kiwi board member to represent the Daniel McAlister types, a Muslim board member to represent the Bachar Houli types, an Italian board member to represent the Mercuri, Misiti, Alessio types, a Greek board member for the David Zaharakis types, a Jewish board member to represent the Julian Kirzner and Ariel Steinberg types etc. Lets have a board with 25+ board members
You are full of shit. Piss off.
And the f****** idiot has probably set back women being on the board of any club simply because she refuses to keep her big trap SHUT.
