Feels like a foregone conclusion that Browne will be in, so I guess my only hope is that at least a couple of independent candidates will join him, as opposed to his ticket being elected straight down the line. No offence to Carp and Roberts, but they don’t seem to have been doing any media or member outreach, and I haven’t seen any particular reason they should be voted for other than because Browne says so. So I do think the results will be an interesting reflection on just how much appetite there is for a shake-up among the member base.

That’s a great idea. Don’t vote for the best candidate & then complain

Anyone going to the AGM, please give the board hell. If they think they’re off the hook after the coaching changes, give them a wake up call. It ain’t over.

Probably going to be a few new members in the board and a new president, so… yes there’s still plenty of work to be done but can hardly blame those people for what they inherited

I think history is only good to learn from and then move on from the lessons learned. Getting stuck in it achieves very little except repeating mistakes.
Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine!
