Olsen has to go

Postby Reddeer » Mon Aug 19, 2013 9:53 pm

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
how can we put up with it. You can tell he is cooked just by looking at him
Verschrikkelyk!!

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

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