there is a bigger picture on the flip side that you are not looking ct and need to refer to the 22/7th asx announcemnt
The Perth based brokers didnt get a part of that placement and seem to have been telling their clients too dump their heads and oppies in EVG. Insted lodge partners of Syndey/melbourne got the placement contract
BJ at the same time held up the sp by taking out call derivatives on the fully paids so that would have allso effectively bidded up the oppies price he was trying to buy
SO I would say we need to cut the guy some slack, if anything the culprits were the Perth brokers (not naming any names)but its the usual suspects
I gueess its easy to place blame without looking deeper into the total picture.
