This guy has to go. Surely we have better "people" around to be in charge of the SANFL. With his past record of deceit for SA

I always wonder how these blokes get these top jobs, it certainly is not through experience in the field they are nurturing.

Pity he wasn't in federal politics in the late '80s. Would have been hilarious as a
Rubbery Figures character.

He was in the senate from 1990 to 1992, so he just about was.

Easy answer to that ... The old boy network is alive and well. Look no further than Saints, PAC, Pultney or Blackfriars.

Correct and all clear. It's a handy little earner for Johnny to top up his parliamentary pension.

Geez, never thought I'd live to see Blackfriars mentioned in the same sentence as the first two!
