Official Club Stuff BREAKING: Luke Sayers steps down effective immediately

[Bletch]

Likely a 'friendly' discussion with Sayers about bringing forward his retirement from the Presidency. Outcome likely a mutually agreed statement that makes no inference that his stepping down as President is due to the photo scandal. e.g. "Spending more time with family" or "More time to discover who is sullying his name". That sort of thing.

Can’t say supporting Carlton is boring.

 

[jj1978]

Maybe time to look outside the inner circle and get a fresh face in with the right skilll set.

 

[Jatz]

Really makes it sound to me that someone leaked it for him, knowing it would hurt him publicly.

Bye Luke, on to the next.

 

[goreds]

I was just starting to really enjoy the meme's I was receiving, last count 28.

 

[branedotorg]

Says a lot about the relative integrity of the AFL and the club.

Right outcome imo, regardless of who actually posted it, there are too many distractions around his leadership to create a successful environment.

 

[Arr0w]

It won't end there

 

[BlueTongue]

"Cleared" but still quits.....LOL. Can't make this stuff up.

Blues president resigns despite being cleared over lewd post

Luke Sayers steps down as Carlton president after AFL releases its findings into social media post

www.afl.com.au

The AFL investigated the matter through its integrity unit and concluded on Wednesday that Sayers' account was "compromised" and that he did not breach AFL rules.

Despite this, just 15 minutes after the AFL released its findings, the Blues announced Sayers would step down.

Notice "Compromised". The way that is emphasized suggests to me that that word is very loosely used in the normal 'hacked' context. As in someone he knew picked up his phone.

 

[Canyouhearthedrums]

Clearly some bad shit going down in the Sayer family unit. I actually have some sympathy for him/them if so, life is complicated.

 

[branedotorg]

Sayers is clearly trying to imply in his statement that he wasn't hooking up with the Bupa lady, and that his family is an innocent party in this also. So he didnt do it, nor did the Mrs, and he wasn't even into Bupa lady anyway. Musta been the Russians i guess.

One thing is for certain, before this pathetic saga Sayers was a corrupt inveterate liar. After it, he is still a corrupt inveterate liar.

I now look forward to our no doubt next honourable President, the Chief of Goldman Sachs.

Yep, sounds like someone knew exactly what they were doing with it.

Found innocent but stepping down anyway.

Keep that in mind at all times in the future when you see the words AFL and integrity mentioned in the same sentence.

 

[Styxx]

It was his last year anyway, found innocent but we all know this would have been brought up every second hour anyway.

Probably not worth it in terms of dragging the club name down or the personal issues especially with family.

OR

Ultimate conspiracy, someone couldn't wait the extra year.

Internet do your most logical choice.

 

[circusdevil]

So has he accidently stepped down, or is it for real?

 

[blueboy25]

Found innocent but stepping down anyway.

Just wonder if the AFL completed their investigation before or after Sayers advised them that he was stepping down.

When the call came in that he was going to fall on his sword (no pun intended) the investigation ended…!

Nothing to see here…

 

[zeggie]

He was cleared of everything.

Simply stepping down due to the embarrassment of everyone seeing his tiny schlong.

Mr Priestly…. Same dude that helped the government by giving evedince against others during the banking commission… and was granted immunity.. immunity from what no one knows.

 

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

Do you have to be a current board member or director to be made president?


Asking for a friend named A. Proud … no wait .. that’s too obvious, let’s just call him Albert P.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

About the only thing the AFL Integrity thingy does is protect the brand.

Sayers sounds like a prize goose & he’s now out of the frame.

Let’s put this behind us.

Until the next inevitable stuff up.

 

[David Sylvian]

Fully flaccid now?

 

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

If you thought Sayers was a nervous and horrible public speaker before … imagine him being interviewed under investigation (although in fairness he’d have some experience doing this already).

Didn’t realise he was big on The Blues!?

Could have his own problems if rumours are to be believed.

Down with DEI.
