I watched last night and thought it was pretty good, pretty revealing. I didn’t think anyone other than Butler and Roj showed themselves in an especially sparkling light (not that the others were particularly bad). Roj’s enthusiasm was great to see and his metaphors were a great way to try and reinforce his message – he’s a big positive around the administration of the Club. Butler seemed quite emotional at one point when discussing how far the Club has come in the last couple of years, which was quite touching. I thought Michelle seemed slightly defensive, perhaps awkward and certainly annoyed (particularly if and when Matt Blanchard was mentioned). CEO Roberts seemed a bit slick, George seemed almost out of his depth trying to string more than a couple of sentences together, and Sharp showed signs of frustration with the FC100K and Weekender things. However, I believe he was right – they may have been handled in ways you could describe as mistakes, but spin that and they become opportunities to learn, and get things right next time.
