Adrian Anderson Quits the AFL

[juzzo]

Press conference at 12:15 EST.

 

[theRainbowGame]

Great contributor to AFL football!

Will be a very hard person to replace!

Perhaps he will take over the ARU CEO role?

 

[bombard]

Imagine a world without Adrian Anderson.

 

[damochandler]

didn't he bring in the 3 strikes policy, the mrp and has a heavy say in the rules

 

[cammo78]

Thank Christ. Clearly out of his depth and responsible (along with senile old KB) for irreparably changing the game for the worse.

Dead. Set. Flog.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

What if the person who replaces him is even worse?

I am not entirely sure that is possible, just thought I'd pose the question.

 

[Puntroad]

Shit.

 

[markm106]

Rumours that he may be headed to a club as CEO. North?

 

[Tigersman]

Didn't mind him. You would think the other codes will swoop in quick time

 

[dymot]

Thanks Adrian. Utter little shit that caused controversy and exhibited short mans syndrome in all activities. Hopefully the new person will undo this cretin's damage and implement more user friendly policies and decisions.

 

[Kaiser Powser]

* Grabs champers.

 

[mOccO]

Thank f'n Christ

 

[Bulldogsnm1]

Good Luck to him.
However, hopefully it will be the last time the AFL ever puts a lawyer into an Operational role.

 

[Blood Bath]

 

[CoZi36]

Christmas has come early for us woohoo, good riddance AA!

 

[DerpWerls]

Bring in Hamish!

 

[JustAnotherMembe]

Ding Dong the Witch is dead!

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

All we need now is Gieschen to quit and we can declare a public holiday.

 

[King Elvis]

Anderson, who came to the AFL as a 31-year-old lawyer, restructured the game's on-field judiciary process, established the AFL's integrity unit and was instrumental in implementing some radical changes to the laws of the game.

Just highlights how ****ing ridiculous his level of influence was.

 

[Oscarman]

Obviously being sent to buy the coffees and pastries was too much for him.

 

[manicmagpie]

All we need now is Gieschen to quit and we can declare a public holiday.

If I was a North fan I wouldn't celebrate too soon if the last couple of paragraphs of the Hun article have any truth to them. (Yes, I'm aware that's a ridiculous concept).

 

[mattymac]

Rumours that he may be headed to a club as CEO. North?

Oh please let it be Adelaide that'd be just freakin perfect

 

[mick06]

This should be in the thread about the AFL trying to trump the cricket this summer. Warnie announces he's available for the ashes, AFL decides to resign this gumby.

 

[The Prosecutor]

Fantastic news.

Thank you for joining us on here Adrian.
