Rollover wishes his heartiest congratulations to MTIAA Super chief executive, Leeanne Turner and all the other women who participated in this year's Mother's Day Classic Boardroom Challenge.

While Rollover has a personal aversion to exercise, he has nothing but respect for those prepared to wear lycra and run 10 kilometres for a cause that really matters.

As per usual the Mother's Day Classic is all about raising funds for breast cancer research and that is a cause that Rollover and Super Review also support.

He notes that at the recent CMSF Charity Golf Day the funds raised were shared between breast cancer and prostate cancer. Now that's a really balanced charitable portfolio.

Rollover is a jaded hack who joined the staff of Super Review nearly two decades’ ago and never managed to summon the energy to leave. Known throughout the superannuation industry as a power-luncher and gossip, Rollover spends his time humouring fund managers, eavesdropping at conferences, dozing through briefings and looking for his next free meal.
