The members didn't give us those people Raglan, that was the board.
The solution is not letting past players run in place of members. If they want to be a board member, then they should go through the WAFC and be appointed by them.
The member positions should be representative of the members and their interests. The board deciding on those people opens things up to even more bias decisions with less accountability than before. At best, the board will need to be very transparent with their selection criteria to eliminate evidence of bias. I don't see any chance of that happening though.
