First up I like CS and he's done a great job. My point is if the club and CS part ways at the end of the year, could Eugene Arocca be an option as it appears things are not rosy at roo's.

Highly regard, done well at both ends of the AFL spectrum, pies to roos...

In due diligence, shouldn't we at least make contact at some point in the near future.

I hate to say this but it looks like the Kangaroos are between Arocca and a hard place.

Should it? The CEO is a position decided by the board, I hope they make the right one for the club come October. If it's time to go, it's time to go. My position is different to others who believe th

What is happening right now at the Roos is proving my point about waiting until the season is over.

The Roos have enough to worry about without having an 'acting CEO' and a 'crisis' to deal with.

All those wanting Cam's blood, and they have quietened down since around 10:45 last Saturday, should take note.

U talking to me? His only chance is if our players show some élan for the rest of the season and somehow save his hide.

He'll be judged on stakeholder engagement, strategic direction, and all the other boring crap you don't care about ADC.

His last extension was the judgement of his performance prior to 186, his next one will be based, for better or worse, oh his record since then.

Does this come with a "I believe in Cam" tag?

If CS is re appointed later this year i have no problems. If someone like Arrocca is a better man so be it.

Cam has done a lot for our club over the last 4 years. My only worry was EW, but that seems to be in the past. What led up to 186 inhouse must be fully dealt with, whatever it entailed. Learnt from.

If CS was instrumental in getting Neeld and our Coaching panel i will back him 100%

beamer sure looked like a new player last saturday night, so just maybe all levels of the club are on the same level now

Next monday will tell more.

My worry is that Cam can't tell what is good for the FD. Remember that Jim would have relayed his expectations to Garry regarding the FD initially.

I wouldnt mind Arocca. Understands what good FDs look like, was probably hamstrung by North's cash flow issues.

This Arocca fellow reminds me of the type that might have run a flower shop in old time Chicago and hung around with unemployed violinists. Whether good or bad for us I dunno.

Call me stupid/ignorant/naive but ummm, what's wrong with the CEO we have?

Look at his track record over the past 20 years. Ask anyone at Richmond, the Gutnick people, and Freo but not his mates.

What's that? Club acknowledges off field decision making does impact on field performance and CEO resigns. For shame!

Did nobody tell him not to show up, call your mates and push the blame onto everybody else?

This bloke has a lot to learn. ;)

(I'm sorry, but I really thought we could get through a week here on D'land without this old chestnut again)

I didn't realise the CEO would be judged based on on-field performance...

Gove up ADC, you don't have a clue.

Not sure about this, he seems to have had conflict with the football manager at North. Healthy debate is fine but I would be concerned he may have been getting too involved in FD business. Sound familiar?

Hmmm . . .

@Atkinson_Tom: Strong rumours Kangaroos to be revealed Insolvent or very close to it tomorrow #afl

From twitter.

He goes on to say in further tweets that it is just a rumour that he hopes isn't true. I have a connection close to the North heirachy that is not aligned to Brayshaw. Basically said Brayshaw was talking out his rectum today but never mentioned anything re insolvency. They may be in a real battle at the moment but i highly doubt insolvency.

I hate to say this but it looks like the Kangaroos are between Arocca and a hard place.

......boooyah!

Champagne stuff WJ :)

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
