First up, we keep Brian Cunningham. Woohoo! The downside is that there'll be some arseclown running AFL football operations instead.

Second, Kane has done his usual trick of being the best runner in the side. Hopefully he'll have a better season than 2003. Disappointing to see Ackers is still on a restricted training program...

When I first looked at this topic, I thought it meant "We keep Bucky and Kane faster than we keep Wilbur".

Needless to say, I was a bit confused :p

Good to hear that Bucky is staying, and a bit of healthy competition between players is always beneficial!

In a way its good to see Bucky staying as we all know how good a job he is doing at the club but part of me wanted to see him go, if only to give us a little more say.

Its probably this reason he didn't get the nod.

And instead it looks like we get a Melbourne based lawyer. Oh that's going to do wonders for ensuring it's an AFL and not VFL dominated heirarchy :rolleyes: I'll take it back though if his first brief is to find any and every way to break the MCC finals debacle contract.

He's media law, not business law. Its more likely that he'll spend his time working out ways to sue anyone that publicly criticises the AFL - this valuable skill is obviously the one that Demetriou was looking for.

Maybe its better for Bucky's health that he didnt get the position. With television rights up for renewal in two years. Many Melbourne clubs struggling on and off the field. The salary cap and that MCC deal. Some interesting times ahead.
