CEO Pav

[Black Panther]

A classic case of falling upwards?

Goes from mumbling rubbish of Fox Footy broadcasts and reading an autocue on the TV news, to CEO of a multimillion dollar organisation?

At least he can take that winning Freo culture to Sydney .... oh wait

 

[Elixuh]

Thank you Sydney for taking this bloke off our screens and commentary. You’re doing gods work.

Yep you've thoroughly summed up his career.

He's done absolutely nothing else.

 

[Elixuh]

Also a wonderful play by Sydney to get Pavs sons into their academy!

 

[RonnieRaven]

Thank you sydney.
Never let your heroes commentate,
As they say

I hope pav does so well in his role that I never have to hear his voice during an Eagles game again

Football good make boss job run great.

 

[Grumpyshades]

but who is going to blatantly lie to protect freo ferals who are booing and abusing an injured opposition player leaving the field ?

 

[justlookingaround]

Why does this remind me of south park’s underpants gnomes…

 

[MF]

Thank you sydney.

Can confirm.

Really weird. Guys got money coming out of the wazoo. Why would he bother moving state for such a thing?

If anything probably a good thing for Sydney. Atleast he has ambition.

The AFL own the Swans. I assume they are grooming him for a senior AFL House role.

 

[Altum Volantes]

The Sydney board told the head-hunters to go get the former Freo champ with footy admin experience and they got confused and hired the OTHER former Freo champ instead?

 

[Oraaaaazio]

Can confirm.

Yep. Jobe for me

Serious question. What are his actual qualifications to operate as a CEO of a very large organisation?

I am pretty sure he's quite active in business - shares in bars, restaurants, horses etc

Would imagine he also sits on a few boards.

Had been prominent in the AFLPA when he was a player.

It is an interesting one - much like Pyke at the Eagles but I guess Pyke had a bit more time in Clubland in off field roles.

 

[Spirit Level]

So we're going to get potentially our first actual F/S sucked into the Swans bullshit academy?

Yeah tell me this league isn't crooked

Yep. Seems like a thoroughly weird appointment.

But I guess Tom Harley was similar, so they don’t let them do any damage and it’s just a waiting room for AFL house.

Jaren Carr says hi

 

[Rod Stroker]

strange choice. doesn't strike me as someone who would be an AFL club CEO.

Harley at least came up through the ranks in clubland.

Yep. They're 10 & 11 I believe.

"Kids, if you agree to join our Academy we'll even find your old man a cushy office job"

This was all news to me but apparently he has an MBA, he co-founded a pretty successful company called Launchd, and was on the board of another company. Also president of the AFLPA for a while and was considered one of the front runners for CEO of the AFLPA a few months ago.

Take brereton as his secretary.

 

[Obzerva]

Yep. Jobe for me
