OR A FORUM POST!!
As I can see that comprehension, grammar, and most certainly the use of paragraphs is not your strong point, I'll break it down to a very basic level that even a simpleton like you should be able to understand.
"Mortimer says he will quit the board if Hasler resigns with the club"
After talking out of line publically to the media about the Des situation and amping up the board of directors, CEO and coach end of year meeting as Des maybe getting sacked (which fanned serious flames around the media), the majority of the meeting ended up being the Directors roasting Castle over a million dollar budget blowout, after a short catch up with Des about the season. The presser which followed immediately after the meeting showed Castle looking like a scolded puppy, or that she'd been close to being sacked herself.
Castle has increasingly less support at the club... except Mortimer (who apparently was integral in getting her the job in the first place).
The comments he made in the media were made publically and without the approval of the board (and on behalf of the board), so he'd already earned himself a dismissal from the board for breaching their Code of Conduct even if Hasler
DIDN'T resign with the club.
So the threat of "if Hasler resigns I'll quit" carries absolutely no weight at all. It's a childish tantrum, it's immature, and it screams attention seeker.
I can have an opinion on Steve Mortimer "The Player", and a different opinion of Steve Mortimer "The Board Member", however you seem to think they are one and the same, when they are mutually exclusive. Maybe that's because you want to ride or kiss the tip of his dick, and whatever fantasies you have behind closed doors, who am I to question.
He didn't "sacrifice his position", he spoke out of line against an employee and without fellow board approval, and got stood down. It's that simple.
But I'll say it again nice and slowly for you.
Steve Mortimer The Player: He was a great player for us, and carries the same legacy that Terry Lamb and other Bulldogs idols left the club with.
Steve Mortimer The Board Member: Spoke stupidly out of line, put the club in a very precarious position with the media, and paid the price for it.
