Our previous Club President, Zac Walsh, was wrongfully refused nomination for re-election of Presidency within the clubs management committee; by using the "must hold a minimum of 2 consecutive years on the committee" clause; a move that raises questions not just about his situation, but about the fairness of our clubs processes and management, considering atleast one other Management Committee Member being re-elected has not fulfilled this requirement, and did not have this clause used against them.
This swift move during the Annual General Meeting was infact providing misinformation to the voters at the given time, which is evident as per the Nerang Roosters Constitution Rules (Membership of the Management Committee, Rule 11.2), "all members of the Management Committee for the time being shall retire from office, but shall be eligible upon nomination for re-election."
Regrettably, this incident is just one example where democracy has been compromised by certain members of the Management Committee, and what a number of us beleive is personal vendeta.
Given the circumstances, it is only just and fair to request a re-vote be held within a Special General Meeting.
Signing this petition, you are in agreeance with the above.

I really thought this might just fizzle out but seeing how many people care about the integrity of our club committees is actually kind of overwhelming right now. It is clear that a lot of us are tired of the double standards and honestly seeing this kind of energy feels like we might actually hold them accountable for what happened at that meeting.

I Believe The AGM Did Not Follow The Clubs Constitution. Zac Walsh Was Nominated And Received The Majority Of Votes Which Declared Him President For 2025 To Be then told he was ineligible to run as President without the chair if the AGM checking the constitution properly. I believe a remote is required Kind Regards Adam Meredith U8's Coach Nerang Roosters
I believe that providing misinformation was used as a tactical response to gain advantage of the votes, despite having any concept of the repercussions it would cause. A multitude of members are upset with the way the election was handled and the result it had. A revote with CORRECT information and fairness is required.
Zac for - President. Bill - Vice President
Zac Walsh President
The constitution was not followed correctly
Zac for president!
I believe it was a personal attack on myself the nominated executives don’t have the best interest for the club but only a power trip.

In light of what is stated in the constitution that all previous executives stand down but are eligible to stand for positions, this rule was not followed at the AGM on Monday 25/11/24
