Chairperson’s Report FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018 Thank you all for once again allowing me to serve as your Chairman, noting that this is the final year of a five-year term that I may be of such service. The past year has been one where the Club has been traumatised by the horrendous injuries sustained by our Chief Executive Officer, Michael Coghlan in very early March. It is not appropriate to detail all of what he endured in the accident and the aftermath, but it is sufficient to say that his very survival could be categorised as miraculous. During all of the time from the immediate instant of the accident to the present time, Michael’s wife Chris has displayed courage, devotion, calmness under the most extreme circumstances, endurance and commitment. Ignoring the obvious subjective view, the Club is most grateful and indebted to Chris. The recovery for Michael is well underway although a number of procedures are still to be performed. Over the last few months, Michael has become increasingly involved in the day to day operation of the Group mixing that with his rehabilitation programme. It is hoped that he should be able to return to his role as Chief Executive Officer in the near future. Moving on objectively, the reports of the various segments of the Group are commended to you. Please read them in the context of everyone having to cope with the accident suffered by our Chief Executive Officer. It is appropriate here in this report to commend Ben Coghlan for the way in which he was able to take over the role of Chief Executive Officer. The transition was not without difficulties, some of which would be evident. However, all of those difficulties were met and handled by Ben with a measured, logical and mature approach. Ben marshalled his management team to meet the challenges they all faced. Ben led his staff with strength and compassion fully aware of the bewilderment his staff were facing. Ben was able to deal with the concerns of the Board with clear, concise and accurate responses, displaying a thorough knowledge of the whole of the business. His efforts were of the highest order and all the more remarkable given the intense pressure under which he had to perform. Thank you Ben. FINANCE AND MANAGEMENT This year was not one in which record figures were reported, at least as far as the bottom line is concerned. The position however in reality is that there have been major spends on charities, sport and our venues. If one looks at the expenditure from cash flow over the last two years on, for example, Wallarah Bay and the gaming rooms at the Wyong Leagues venue, one can easily see the massive re-investment into our venues.
