Wrong dbd
1) ‘At the end of the day’ management’s job is to serve the best long term interests of the company.
There are plenty out there interested in milking public company advantages but if this merger plan is genuinely able to advantage both entities then the strategy makes sense.
- I think it was @Danehill who supplied a recent media interview where Ian Prentice said combining the two projects had always been at the back of his mind.

2) Shareholders are NOT management!
17% of shareholders is not even a majority of shareholders.
YOU are not even a ‘17%er’ .. in fact not even a shareholder!
How do you know what all shareholders here want.
Personally I want to profit from my investment and I want my shares entrusted to the strongest and most capable hands.
It appears Ian Prentice no longer has a reputation for having strong and capable hands .

You call this a fiasco and are entitled to that opinion.
But I feel entitled to remind you that, despite that you seem to have appointed yourself Lead backseat driver (when you are not even in the car ) and say you speak for all shareholders here you certainly DON’T speak for me!
