Incompetents in highly paid/powerful positions will fight tooth and nail to stay in said positions, regardless of the number of stuff-ups. They just don't care. Fages, Roo, Nige etc are on a very long list.
And life is made much easier when you can avoid accountability. One reason why the AFC is obsessed with controlling the media.

Will today tonight be hunting down the guilty parties ?
I'm sure the aboriginal players will feel comfortable being identified as the only problem with the program
What on earth else would Nigel Smart go and do if he didn’t roll out of bed one day into his current job? Honestly, what could he possibly offer anyone?
He could develop his own men's fragrance range: Smarm
Politician?

He should wake up every morning and thank his lucky stars. He's in a highly paid job that's beyond him. A classic example of jobs for the boys.
Nige also has a high opinion of himself, and it's completely unjustified.

You just know if this was us, ol' mates at 7 would be camped outside Power HQ DEMANDING answers. Smithsons head would be spinning and Elspeth would have a team of tweeters working for her.

This is a given, considering the AFC’s recent phobia for copying Essendon at every turn:
1. India
2. eSports
3. “Whatever it takes.”
4. The Hangar

I'm sure Bevo eats the coffee beans. He then excretes them then they are roasted. All adds to the cost. It is like Kopi luwak(civet coffee). All original Bevo coffee.

Was thinking the same. Perhaps they are copying
Essendon in other ways too.

He’d make an ideal personal assistant for that other perennial dropkick loser, Rob Lucas.

OK, who's ready for an unpopular opinion? Here's mine, although I don't think it's very logical.
Footy every night of the week.
Why are Friday Night games so valuable? Because they're the only match on that day and are on Free to Air. So if 7 (maybe 5 or 6) games a week are on 7 it would mean more clubs get to be on Free to Air more. Ideally, you'd want teams having no less than a 6-day break between games.
A typical round would have 1 Monday Night, 1 Tuesday Night, 1 Wednesday Night, 1 Thursday Night, 1 Friday Night, 2-3 Saturday, 1-2 Sunday.

Roo can try .. but Burgess is a Port man ..Just watch Roo try and poach D Burgess back from Arsenal given whats going on over yonder.
That only took 6 months...
Such a s**t organisation. You would have thought after Tippett they might have realised that they aren't as good at cover ups as they thought they were.
But still we have things like this, the saga when Lever left, the saga when Gunston left, the lies about not going for Gibbs etc. etc. They treat their members like such muppets.
Then again most of their members lap it up so I guess that's why they keep doing it.

Is anyone really surprised? It's not in Adelaide's nature to admit mistakes were made. They'd rather cough up more money, do something minimal with CM and point to that as 'See, CM were great!'.
If players want the game shortened I think they should take a pay cut

I'd get rid of Tuesday and Wednesday and keep it 5 nights starting Thursday night and ending Monday.
