Review Is It Time For Roo To Go?

[FAITH]

- Continues to keep Campo and Clarke when they'rent good enough and brought in Birdman and Haas basically 2 rejects from Brisbane.

Thoughts?

 

[1990crow]

Basically, yes.

Important to ask, what positives has Riccuito's influence actually provided the club? I can't see much - and unfortunately it has negatively affected my perception of him after his playing career.

Brought in Pyke who I think is a very good coach, but that's about it.
For me bringing in Birdman and the promoting him after a season and allowing Haas to come to the club has shown Roo isn't up to it imo.

Is Roo really responsible? Or is it a board thing? Or is it Pyke? You know I’m not a fan of Roo at all, but I’m not sure he has the sway everyone in here thinks he does.

 

[Pugsley]

Yes.

 

[SugarShane]

Have been saying so for some time already. The yessiest of the yes men and king of the jobs for the boys mentality.

We should be reigning premiers
That would have made roo a legend

Don't we wait till the end of the bad season.

Lets see what changes.

He is a media man first and club man second.

He is just far too smug and blase on camera.

Just comes off as a bloke who gives his mates the jobs.

But those people dont go unless pushed.

Are AFC going to turf a club legend? Pfft no, the media would be all over it.

Brought in Walsh too.

The board should be about more than 1 person.

If others on the board provided checks & balances, there would be no way dodgy appointments like Burton would be made.

We need a better board & senior management.

Neither Smart nor Burton are management material.

Clear out these clowns & bring in.competent people.

Anyone got Bill Sanders number ?

From what I've heard he's the one in charge of making the big football department appointments.

We need a board not only accountable to the AFL.

If this is accurate then there is something drastically wrong with how our football department is set up. No one person should have the ultimate say in any one decision. It leads to this kind of situation, where after making a few correct calls, the person in power starts making bad decisions and can't or won't admit fault.

 

[asdfasd]

He was a great footballer. I'm yet to see evidence that he has any other abilities.

 

[mulz]

Fagans in charge. He is responsible

 

[Morning_Fog]

Rob Chapman is the first person who should go.

 

[El Doederino]

The Adelaide board?

Pfft.

A bunch of empty chairs.

 

[Mike Smyth]

Of course he has to be sacked from the board. He cannot be trusted. This is a multi million dollar organisation we are talking about here and his decision to hire Burton is the biggest reason we have blown a year in a rare premiership window. How much revenue do you think a genuine premiership contender has lost when it's year finishes in round 19.

**** him off sooner rather than later.

Bring on the tarps for the rest of the year.

here here. Nathan Van Berlo and Brent Reilly come on down.

 

[El Doederino]

I like that Roo is brought in by Hurley to bring his name to a couple of pubs and all of a sudden everyone reckons he’s a savvy business man.

 

[WetCrow1991]

Unintelligent man makes unintelligent choices. News at 11.

 

[King Elvis]

Anyone involved in the recruitment of Burton should go.

I assume Roo drove it, that front runner Chapman and Mechanism Clearing w***er supported it, so they can all piss off.
