TOPIC: Female Presidents

The recent success of clubs with female presidents (Richmond, Melbourne and Western Bulldogs) suggests that this is the way Freo should go to get to a GF and potentially win a flag sooner rather than later. Diversity is the catch cry these days and it seems to be working in the AFL. I am not pushing this thought to get rid of Dale Alcock as of now but there must be a number of good business women in Docker ranks that can hold this position surely? You might know some?

I think what has happened there is that they have put the best candidate into the position and they just happened to be women. We don't do that. We hire mates for football jobs and wealthy business owners for president.

i agree with your comment Shane. Merit should be first priority but I also think that there are women of merit out there who for some reason wont put their hand up for the job. It might take some time and encouragement for such women to give it shot. AFL admin is no longer a boys club as we know.

As it stands now because we don't have that merit system, woman who hold these senior roles have to be absolutely brilliant in order to prevail over the boys club.

Daisy Pearce has to be a hundred times better than Brian Taylor to get and keep the job. Fortunately for her she is.

Which reminds me of elite private schools...........



........shut up hypen you bore.

interesting times for women in leadership - like a changing of the guard I reckon. When I first started working around 30 years ago, women in power tended to have succeeded by behaving like a member of the boys’ club.

now, not so much - which is great as we need diversity for a healthier system.

also interesting to see John Elliott being hailed as a bit of a larrikin, when as one of the chief architect of the boys club mentality in the AFL his legacy is a curse on the Blues.

I had a smoke and a yack with him at the main break outside Docklands one night. I needed a light and he was just beside me and offered up a box of matches - took me a bit to recognise him. He had a good sense of humour and smoked faster than anyone I've ever met - not as tall as pictures would suggest, nor as gruff as many would lead you to believe.

Polly, I had a once had few beers with a couple of muso's that did gigs for him at his residence, their opinions of him were nowhere near as kind as yours.

My recollection was neither here nor there on Elliot beyond a 10 minute chat about nothing in particular. Just a friendly bloke in a three piece pin-striped suit on a cold Saturday night outside Docklands. The one odd thing I do remember was his lack of a lighter, he just pulled a box of Redheads out of his waistcoat and handed it to me. Old school - the burnt ones were returned back to front in the box too. My pop used to do that as well - does that make John Elliot a bit of an environmentalist? I doubt it, probably just a habit - but make of it what you will.

But he fell over at home then died in hospital a week later. That bugged me - really, can you just fall over and die like that? Apparently you can - so watch your footing everyone.

You particularly have to be careful when you're stepping outside to go for a smoke. Those door steps will kill you.

Regardless of his gruff nature and larger than life character, I think what I'll remember him for is that he was a crook, a cheat and a bankrupt.

Lucky he talked to you at all. Am I the only one who remembers we hurt the big guy's feelings with a pre-match spectacle of a John Elliot impersonator wandering out to the centre of Subi, mouthing loud elliotism's about Freo, footy and politics,
- and then was promptly bashed and throttled to death by Jonny Doc (or his henchmen). How could he have taken offence at that? Great entertainment.

Yes Shane, that was the guts of my conversation with a those blokes, and they said he had no respect for those who actually did the work, waiting on tables, cooking, and providing the entertainment. Fitted in well as a bigwig in the Liberal Party, did "Big Jack".
