MIKE Fitzpatrick has resigned after a 10-year stint as AFL Chairman and will be replaced by fellow Commissioner Richard Goyder.

Goyder, who will retire as Wesfarmers chief executive later this year, will step into the AFL's top job on April 4.

Fitzpatrick - a Rhodes scholar and three-time Carlton premiership ruckman - confirmed his departure to the AFL board at a meeting last week.

He said a number of recent events - the Western Bulldogs' premiership, the AFLW launch and early purchase of Etihad Stadium - convinced him it was the right time to depart.

He said the sport's six-year $2.5 billion broadcast deal signed last year was the biggest achievement of his tenure.

So the Essendon drug saga is all Fitzpatricks fault? Is he to blame for the whole thing from the very start?
