He's recognised that he needed to be more visible and improve fan interaction, he started the Fans Forum up again with details of what happened at said forums put on the club website.

He's put himself in the firing line for some awkward questions by having an open meet and greet outside the stadium and in doing so is probably the most 'accessible' CEO in the game. I say fair play to him for recognising and reacting to the problem.

He's got a couple of screens in, the screen inside the stadium isn't the best quality but I think it adds to the match day experience.

The 'Once a Wire, Always a Wire' tag line for new memberships seems far better to me than 'Hardwired' ever was.

Should he have acted sooner on the coaching front? Possibly, but my bet is Moran would have been quite resistant to that change, it's obvious the coach and owner were very close, too close possibly? My bet is that was Moran's issue not his.

This period of uncertainty between coaches, and so player recruitment is concerning, but could all be resolved tomorrow if the new coach is announced along with a raft of contract renewals. If there are players signed up but we are (rightly) waiting before they finish with their respective clubs before announcing them - I think he should tell fans this. There is clearly a lot of concern around squad size for next year, understandably, if we have players to come in lined up he should communicate that to the fan base, given the predicament we find ourselves in. This new coaching appointment is huge for him, and he will be judged on the success of whoever comes in.

I have no concerns at all that he had no prior CEO experience, I work for a big organisation, one of the VP's started as an entry level employee and worked his way up - he's by far the best VP in the company.

Has KF been great? Probably not, and there are some things he could have done better - which he had admitted to by his actions. What did Draper achieve in his time here? spent a huge amount of money and got us a new badge (that most people as it turns out don't like!).

Yet what did his predecessor actually achieve?

He left Karl a massive hole in terms of financials and sponsorship to sort out, having apparently ruined Gatcliffe and the boards even keel approach over the last 15 years as we've been pretty steady.

If you look at Draper's background, its high level, but doesn't seem to leave anywhere with a good rep, he got chased out of the LTA after under performing there, he was roundly criticized as the accounting geezer in Wembley redevelopment project which we know came in late and horrendously over budget.

And if he had been in Australia interviewing candidates, we'd be in exactly the same position, experience or not. We're fighting for NRL scraps regardless.

People like to use the kiss cam comment, it was a response to a specific query over the new screen and tarting up match day, apparently if our Rog had suggested it, it would have been another one of his great ideas, like the DJ and saxamaphone player, the (unsafe) selfie squad in the middle of the field during warm ups and his incredibly devisive 'official fan club.

Good question. I hate the new logo and that's pretty much all we have left from his reign, other than the website which again, good, but but great.

Roger Draper was/is an absolute charlatan in a sharp suit. During his reign at the LTA he claimed the end of the 77 year wait for a male singles Wimbledon champion was somehow down to him and not the talent and years of dedication from Andy Murray. Didn't see you collect SPOTY that year Roger. I'd love to read the absolute claptrap he has on his CV.

No I did not attend being an 'out of towner' as it was not feasible but have been a season ticket holder for over 35 years I have an interest in the goings on at the club. Not sure what your point is here. I am saying that he has some character to do what he is doing regarding the face the fans sessions and well done to him for that. It would be far easier to do this after we had won a Grand Final. You say he does not pick or sack the coaches well I am sure you are right it must be a collective decision. I would say that if, as you say, he provides the list from which the new coach will be picked I would consider that quite an important contribution to the while exercise. If he is tasked with going out and speaking to a pre-compiled list I would say that this is also a important contribution tho the process.
