The chairperson or board don't even get a salary let alone $200k.
The club has operated under these by laws for decades and even if they buy 100 memberships they still have to go to a EGM.
What happened this past week is very much the exception rather then the norm so I wouldn't be changing too much.
Maybe change the percentage of signatures to force a EGM to 20%-25% but that would be about it.
I am more interested in fixing the fact that we only have 1100 voting members and of those 1100, and from that small pool, 7 Directors are chosen.
If someone wanted to game the system as it presently stands, they can.
Say a whole bunch of Dib supporters were upset about the 2018 election, they wereb't members then but joined up ready for the 2022 election.
Say Anderson supporters are upset, so they get a heap to join up now, they're ready to vote 2024 election.
Or God forbid, before then either gang call another EGM asap their 3 years up.
In fact this may well have happened now if those extra Dib supporters joined before the AGM in 2018, in a whole block.
These manipulations can happen at any time.
The fact that 7 directors are chosen from 1100 voting members greatly reduces the quality of applicants to chose from...primarily old ex players and numpty fans like all of us lol.
That should be looked at.
Increasing to 25% of 1100 will only encourage more rorting and branch stacking. Cheaters always find a way around rules.
They'll just get Bellamy in to find a way lol
