I had an overseas friend watch the game on TV and he was wondering why someone kept on shouting "Stan". He genuinely thought it was an ad promo for the streaming service.

I don't think you got every twitter buzzword into your post. Try again.Is this a joke?
Right wing transphobe and climate skeptic Josh Frydenberg is apparantly frontrunner to become AFL CEO.
It just goes to show the AFL are more concerned with generating profits for corporates rather than making the AFL the game of the people.
As a politician he gave millions of $ in handouts to Harvey Norman and other corporate companies.
He opposes a designated Indgenous voice to parliament and the Ularu statement.
He refused to call out transphobe Catherine Deves. He lost a seat held for 80 years. He has supported Scomo's Islamophobia in the past.
He continually misled and lied to the media.
How can this partisan trump supporter possibly be appointed as CEO of the people's game?
There is no way minority groups such as the LGBT and Indigenous communities will support this.
I for one will stop following AFL if this clown is appointed.

He was once touted as a future prime minister. Now the ex-politician could be taking up another major Aussie job.www.google.com
He's rattled the nuff cage before he's even got the job. The man is eminently qualified
Yep, must say I'm pissing myself at the left wing nut job snowflakes utter melt downs in this thread so far.
They thought they were rid of him and given how smug they have been for the last few weeks, this is utterly hilarious karma.
Great, more Carlton favouritism

Why would the AFL want a loser to be their next CEO?

He's a cowardly politician trying to win votes from bigots. He is scomo's greatest supporter. He doesn't have the moral fiber to run a game that represents the community.
Well that's a massive own goal.Sports Management?
Gil studied Law/Commerce and did a Senior Exec program at Stanford mate. He did a 10 year apprenticeship at the AFL, prior to that he was at Accenture.
Dimitreou worked in the dental industry before becoming CEO of the AFL players association before becoming AFL CEO.
You are a moron if you think the applicant HAS to come from within the Sports Industry. Given the AFL is the biggest sporting code in the country, you are going to have to go overseas to get someone of a comparable level of commercial experience within the sports industry.
According to you "Gil did a ten years apprenticeship in the AFL" prior to being appointed CEO, and Dimitreou was CEO of the AFLPA, - to give examples of not having experience in Sports Management you gave two very good examples of having experience in sports managment.
You're so focussed on pushing your political bias you are not seeing you make an absolute goose of yourself. Probably time to take a spell from the internet Joshy.

You could have just said recycled failure
Scomo was democratically elected.
Is it a problem to be a supporter of someone who aligns with a large portion of the country's views?
Or just because it doesn't align with your views?
To be fair, what CEO has in the past 20 years?
Demetriou is arguably more corrupt, yet people say he managed things relatively well.

The only people supporting him are people like yourself who like to use words like 'snowflake' and 'woke'.
I know you hate Indigenous round mate but it's here to stay now.

He isnt a football hack promoted by the boys club for the financial betterment of the boys club.
Its not much as far as qualifications go but its an improvement over the last few CEOs.
Could he be worse than Vlad?

He is not just a transphobe. He is a RAVING transphobe.
He could be worse than Vlad.
Certainly unlikely to be as good as Gil. Surely we should be aiming for improvement?
Fair play to the leaker then. Josh would have wanted a quiet fait accompli
Shows he might not be getting a queue of suitors at his door though. And thoroughly deserved.

He could score a job with Harvey Norman.
If he gets rid of the ump mics, then his tenure will be worth it.

Anyone that doesn't want this is clearly an anti semite.

Not sure they're even concerned about bottom line and profits given the debt accumulation he has overseen. A-Grade idiot, will do nothing but set back the AFL with his archaic societal views. We will become a laughing stock in the sports world with him at the helm.
