News New CEO - Andrew Fagan

[Crow-eater]

Looks like we'll be making a major announcement at 4pm - so 15 minutes.

It's most likely the new CEO being announced with the word on twitter being that it's Andrew Fagan former Brumbies CEO.

And now we wait.

EDIT: Confirmed to be Fagan. Welcome, Andrew!

If It's Nigel Smart, I'm going Nuclear.

Listening to 5AA now, assuming there will be some sort of live stream?

 

[Wright Away]

I really need to take a s**t, it is backing up something crazy.

 

[Vooligan]

Would love it to be a triple whammy announcement of CEO and new assistant coaching staff.

NOT NIGEL YEY, NOT NIGEL YEY, NOT NIGEL YEY!

 

[Campbell's Chunky]

Well Rooch was pretty spot on with his CEO predictions...........

sounds like a good appointment based on his list of roles (without looking into the performance of those organisations while he was there)

 

[Donkey Magoo]

Wow, his BIO is impressive! I like that he is outside of the AFL pool as well, no hidden allegiances holding him back. Also SA born so we don't have to worry about FA in 8 years.

 

[Magma]

anyone know anything about him

didn't promote from within. yay

 

[pjcrows]

Brumbies won flags and made a handful of GF's under him.

 

[Bernie L]

Good appointment!

The fact he will have HUGE eastern state connections will help us in a big way off the field. Kudos to the Crows. I really like this
