The federal police should have approached him more than once over the past 10 years

Melbourne appointing blokes with skeletons in their closets to official roles is a time honored tradition.

Kingsley got a thread on this board named after him because of Nicholson.

 

[SugarHealey]

Yeh fair call - I got my stories a little mixed up.

Clayton was at Joel Smiths house the night he had his ‘fall’ and went to hospital.

I’m still drawing a small bow and smell something fishy. I know of a couple of other players who have supposedly been involved at times but as the media havnt reported anything on them I havnt put it on here.

Bump!

Down to Nicholson and Chippindall now.

Huge vote of confidence to the two candidates, asking some bloke to do it who didn't even apply a couple of weeks out from when we're due to announce it.

Especially after it took 4 years to just then hire someone from internal. What a joke of a club

 

[Toump Ass]

I'd have loved Demetriou. Say what you want about that corrupt two-faced lying bastard, but he got results.

 

[mrmonkey]

Demetriou might be a dickhead, but his successors are worse. Demetriou wouldn't be stupid enough to make a round zero.

Or appoint a 34 year old head of football who then needs a senior figure to come in an help her

AFL reminds me of MFC, a bunch of back patters but lose focus on the actual job.

 

[Proper Gander]

I’m not kidding. We appoint Demetriou and I’m out. Membership, microwave, whatever. I don’t even give a stiff shit if he can turn the club around. He shouldn’t be given the chance.

I’ll see how it all goes then decide, but I’m not supporting a club that appoints that person

This sounds kinda personal.

I hope you're ok.

Thanks Daemon. I’m okay.

I don’t personally think this person is okay though, and I don’t think I can wear it if he achieves a managerial role in our club.

That should come with a trigger warning.
It is very painful to watch.

If you're watching our forward line at any time, live or in review. You know what you're opting in to what you see

 

[mrmonkey]

Some of those you can tell the players are down on confidence. Pickett's pass to Fritsch wasn't great but the fumble was terrible, Fritsch usually is really clean with those. There was a pass to Trac that wasn't great but the one handed effort was a bit lazy, just gave himself no chance. There was another one where he just fumbled, again a player down on confidence. Everything else was just too long and or our forwards have no presence and no forward craft. There was one that could have resulted in a goal only because Pickett read the flight. Feels like the entire team needs a stint at Casey to get some touch back. Some players can stay at Casey.

Start with the word true and see what you come up with.

Values shouldn't be acronyms. It's so fking stupid. Damn corporate BS, makes me sick.

For those so inclined (I found it interesting in the context of Caulfield, needing a CEO, and the Trac/Roffy 'Make some noise' stuff), this is a really interesting read about revenue/financials.

Assessing the “AFL Power Index”- who are the financial heavyweight clubs?

It's a fair way down the page, although some other good stuff in there too about kick retention.

They explain this graph a bit, so it ends up coming across a bit different to how you might first think, but my nerd side found it interesting anyway.
