The Review

[aabp1978]

In terms of the football appointees - I wonder who would be best placed? I would think Paul Roos is top of my list, but then who? Jason Dunstall? Perhaps someone like Luke Ball (former head of the AFLPA)?

 

[pjcrows]

In an encouraging sign, it appears as though we have employed legitimate, qualified, experienced psychologists to be involved.

As opposed to... ya know... last time.

If either of them were at Burning Man I'm calling for a Royal Commission.

To be fair, if we have to tie up anyone naked in the outback it might as well be the board/administration.

Neither of the ppl announced could credibly weigh in on the board’s failures

Simply No to Paul Roos , false economy .

Paul Roos HATES us. I also think his quality is overstated. He's hardly set Melbourne up for success has he? Avoid.
Dunstall? Avoid. Ball is interesting, I don't know enough about his post playing days to know what he will be like, but being a past president of the AFLPA doesn't help in my mind (wasn't Burton also that?) Isn't Dangerfield that now? Not exactly filling me with confidence.

 

[pjcrows]

The clear hole so far is an administrative/operational reviewer. That'd be a priority.

 

[Tex200]

Would have preferred a team of management consultants. Richmond’s were true toe cutters and had no hesitation in recommending certain people be moved on.

Will these guys be looking at management process, conflict of interest etc?

They won't. Check the wording, this is about Football only. The board, Chapman, Roo and Fagan are outside of this. One can only hope Burton is not.

Club statement

The Adelaide Football Club has commenced a review of its football operations

www.afc.com.au

Well that is a good start, at least they have listened to us. Can only hope it includes everything and we actually listen and implement some changes as a result.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Sorry, but each season's review is ramped up or down based on ladder position .......oh give me a break

Crows Chairman Rob Chapman said the Club’s internal review had already commenced and added consecutive seasons of missing finals demanded a more thorough examination of football structures, systems and personnel.

 

[NSWCROW]

So wait.....

THE CLUB is reviewing the club ?

 

[WaynesWorld19]

If the review is to take several weeks to complete ....that says to me Pyke is safe

The main issue with selecting different people for different aspects is that they might not be on the same page regarding what it is the club needs. A larger external company knows what it's there for.

The other negative of employing a number of individuals is: are they looking to be brutally honest or are they looking for an ongoing consultative role with the club?

I'd prefer a bigger outside organization to come in, blow it up, then leave.

Out of curiosity why avoid Dunstall? He was largely responsible for cleaning Hawthorn up and the appointment of Alistair Clarkson unless I'm mistaken.

That’s the problem with initiating a review now. Any recommendations can’t be done in time for 2020.

Too many old players? Oh well the date for list finalisation has passed now.

Pyke and burton need to go? Oh well we have no replacement as they’re all contracted for 2020.

 

[hey shorty]

Just get the right football people in to do the footy side of things. Leigh Matthews perhaps??

 

[Elite Crow]

Would have liked staff recruitment to be included

 

[aabp1978]

I think having a person that isnt a fan of the club is EXACTLY what they need. Roos would be brutal. And in terms of his experience, he turned Sydney around massively (particularly on the cultural side), and (despite this season) he did bring about a change in Melbourne (only of course to be brought down by the dismal coaching of Goody)...
The only other key person I can think of is Leigh Matthews - but he was part of the panel that picked Sando - and of course David Parkin,

 

[Scorpus]

I am kind of surprised they have given this much detail about it.

Might actually be a legit review.

They kinda had no choice given the uproar

Don't necessarily have to wait until the end of a review to act on anything

 

[crows dude]

Take several weeks to complete. So hoepfully by the end of finals in time for delistings and trading, drafting etc.

 

[Scorpus]

So there will be no review of the top end decision makers.

Football department is a start, and hopefully that goes all the way up to Ricciuto, but really it should have included the board and non-football divisions too
