As long as he's not allowed anywhere near the money he'd possibly be OK.

If you're gonna complain about the AFL being corrupt right now and you want this guy in charge... wow. Wow is all I'll say.
Surely the AFL aren't dumb enough to appoint him. It doesn't really matter how good he is, as soon as you have an ex-politician running the place, over half the fans are going to hate him & it will cost the game big time.
It usually takes years to build up that hate through bad decisions, this time he'll start bad and it will only get worse over time.

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
Took two sentences before the lefty foaming at the mouth dribble full of ideological labels and personal insults.
Hope he becomes the CEO for the melts lol

Robodebt shows that Collingwood is $17b in debt.
The vast majority of fans have no idea who is running the league.
Diehards and footy nerds do but we make up a very small percentage of the overall support for the game.
So he (or whoever they appoint) may annoy some of the ‘fringe extremists’ but ultimately even the majority of those won’t care if their team is winning regularly.

Thanks mate You are typical of right wing nuts who vote based on hatred of climate scientists and minority groups.
Why not vote for policies you like instead?
Frydenburg opposed a corruption commission. Why would that be?
Over 80-90% of the people attending the footy wouldn't know who Gil is? I call bullshit. He reads out the votes at the Brownlow and is on news regularly. Kids won't but they aren't the ones paying money into the AFL coffers.
Who ever doesn't know who Gil is probably doesn't know Frydenberg either so to them it won't matter but I guarantee you that more than 50% of Australia's who watch footy in the season would know the CEO's name or seen a picture of him. The fans with full memberships will definitely know who he is.

Hopefully the backlash is enough to nip this in the bud. I would genuinely consider withdrawing any financial contributions from anything AFL related given how strongly I oppose what he represents as a person.
we here to discuss footy or politics?
youre on the wrong forum mate. give it a rest

You must hate Penny Wong. She is a horrible homophobe. Was against Gay marriage for years and years.
No chance - under Frydenberg and Morrisons model they would be sending debt collectors to under 8 matches and be stealing kids lunch money to line the pockets of the Rich AFL clubs. It's all about kicking the poor and helping the rich with these criminals.

Appointing a politician to CEO does involve politics. What you have said and done in the past is relevant to your suitability for the job.
He is a divisive person who lies all the time.Plus he mismanaged the economy and increased the debt by billions.

Isn’t that OPs point?
The AFL spruik these ideals and values, yet it’s rumoured that one of the front runners for the job is a candidate to whom views appear to contradict what the AFL represent.
Nice that we're able to keep this thread apolitical.
I reckon most posters should be a bit more honest and admit their main beef is that he's a Carlton supporter.
Wonder if he can stay as our numeber one ticket holder?

You've gone off your rocker about his political views.
Stop being a nut and focus on footy. You're ruining it for everyone else.
