The Nigel Smart?
Wow he'll kick them into gear. Takes no prisoners and says it like it is.
Good to hear Cliffo has stepped up. Tough competitor on field but good bloke off it.
Let's hope the biggest protestors step up as well.

Legends take over reins for Stingrays
ADELAIDE premiership hero Nigel Smart is set to be announced as the new chairman of the Southern District Cricket Club, after members voted against a merger with Adelaide Cricket Club last month.
And club legend Harvey Jolly is the new interim president of the Stingrays, after this week taking on the role for a second time. Port Adelaide football boss Chris Davies and another Crows premiership star, Rod Jameson, are part of an advisory group and have confirmed they will provide ongoing support to the club.
Jolly, a former SA cricketer who was instrumental in the development of the Stingrays, put his hand up to return to the interim leadership role at the club, after merger talks with Adelaide were called off at a special general meeting last month.
Ten board members stood down in the aftermath.
A widely respected figure in SA cricket, Jolly was president of the Stingrays when the club won its first A-grade premiership in 2015-16.
