If GWS don't do anything different to the last 3 years, then it will be pick 19-23.

So, is 7 and 20 better than 5?

Would be a yes for mine.

 

[Thetrader15]

Would be a yes for mine.

I think it's a yes from me too

 

[Mego Red]

Is this from personal experience of him as a middle manager?

Lol, of course it's not.

 

[Red mist]

******* Chapman. He has to go now.

Everybody wants me to stay and see it out... what is he seeing out.

 

[deeztreez]

Why would gws throw away extra points with 2 picks to move to pick 6 and then use this pick on Green. To me it seems obvious that they traded up to 6 to get something usable to get a pick before Green. So either Dees or us are prime target for pick trades for them to achieve this.
Also depends who Hamish wants. If he has his heart set on Flanders he may decide to keep 4 or if he’s keen on Stephens and believes he will still be there at 6 we may go that way

 

[ad victoriam]

Chapman is a straight up over achieving middle management piss ant flog ... how clowns like him ever get to be in a position of authority shows exactly how f’ed the slimey corporate system is .

Rob Chapman is not middle management, far from it.

 

[ShadeyP]

Rob Chapman is not middle management, far from it.

Yes he is if you read what i wrote properly ... he was a regional manager , lucky at that and that should well have been his career peak .
HE HAS OVER ACHIEVED FOR SUCH A FLOG .

 

[ad victoriam]

Read it again and still Chapman is not middle management,

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

From the other thread:

I was told yesterday from a friend of campos brother that Camporeale had his contract renewed for a further 2 years just before the review. WTF

 

[hey shorty]

I'm not sure that would have happened.

Though I'm sure it could have been the case if they didn't have said review.

 

[BunjiMac]

From the other thread:

This is the investigation that still needs to occur. There is clearly a massive disconnect between the board and the employees. How is it even possible that the board is oblivious to the Campo and Burton situations. Not just oblivious but believing they were both doing a great job and quality recruits.

 

[Mego Red]

Isn't Chapman CEO at St George Bank, and was CEO at Bank SA? When was he a regional manager?

 

[Mego Red]

I'm not sure that would have happened.

Though I'm sure it could have been the case if they didn't have said review.

I think assistant coaches need to be given commitments in late August about whether a club is planning to continue with them, though they wouldn't necessarily get new contracts then.

Not sure what happens if a club decides not to proceed.

 

[1970crow]

No, you keep 4.

Only way we trade pick 4 is for 2 picks in the top 10 & we don't believe there is much difference it talent around 4.

depends on whether they’re confident of getting the player they’d take at 4 with 7. No different to what we did with a Lever.

 

[Danger_zone]

I dont believe this is totally accurate

AFC and Campo management started discussing a contract extention late in the season with Pyke wanting to retaun Campo

However Pyke's resignation put a pause on the process with no new contract signed.

Fast forward the review with the appointment of a new coach Campo was moved on....

A 2 year deal was negotiated but not signed by eother party

On SM-N960F using BigFooty.com mobile app

Wait... Pyke wanted Campo extended? wtf?

 

[Crow till I die]

Wait... Pyke wanted Campo extended? wtf?

Maybe Pyke was channeling meatloaf in relation to our last 3 seasons..thinking 2 out of 3 (bad seasons) ain't bad

 

[Crows I Am]

From the other thread:

Just shows again how deluded we were with our view of the list this season. They were hoping like hell that we made the finals and then they could all say 'nothing to see here'. Luckily we bombed out and they had to call the review.

 

[ShadeyP]

Isn't Chapman CEO at St George Bank, and was CEO at Bank SA? When was he a regional manager?

Again , i said where he should be and that is stuck at the CBA managing the regional sections of SA and NT . Early 2000's !

 

[1970crow]

Wait... Pyke wanted Campo extended? wtf?

Puts to bed the rubbish that after 4 years he wasn’t happy with the group that he had. Was a fair old problem was Pykeo.

 

[fabs33]

Wait... Pyke wanted Campo extended? wtf?

I get the impression Campo was good at making friends with the people above him, but not with those below.

 

[kirky]

Rob Chapman is not middle management, far from it.

Agree, he is senior management nor middle management. Makes it even worse.

 

[Mego Red]

Again , i said where he should be and that is stuck at the CBA managing the regional sections of SA and NT . Early 2000's !

So he was a State Manager for multiple states?

 

[ShadeyP]

So he was a State Manager for multiple states?

No , his job title was regional manager

 

[FR0GGY]

Wait... Pyke wanted Campo extended? wtf?

Bloody good thing he resigned then.
