The "CEO" deserves a thread all of his own. Has anyone presided over a less successful on-field club over the past 25 years? Are his off-field exploits anything to write home about? What has he achieved other than convincing gullible supporters to throw their hard-earned down the gurgler on false dawns and flimsy fantasies scribbled down on a restaurant napkin?

Your text message from the supporters has arrived, Cam ...

"There are no shortcuts to success.

Please kindly remove yourself from the club.

We've had enough.

Goodbye".

Christ, I've had enough of you clogging up the forum with rubbish threads of no substance.

Neeld still deserves a chance. Just.

I'm not so sure this bloke does.

So start a thread praising his acumen and administrative brilliance. What's stopping you? See how you go.

Jens, all you seem to do is be critical of other posters. Just an observation. You're like a poor man's Ben Hur.

Any chance of contributing something to the topic?

Strawman.

Agree.

If the Club was $10M in debt, we had no sponsors, we didn't make a profit last year, the spending on the footy dept had decreased for the last five years, etc etc then I would look at getting rid of the CEO, he didn't play on Sunday as far as I can recall.......if you are looking for scapegoats look at the players

Not sure we were ever 10mil in debt & as for making a profit well you can thank the MCC the AFL & the good hearted people who give a lot of money to the club each year for that.

We are tearing ourselves apart aren't we?

A few on here seeking blood - you are overreaching.

We will deal with the board and CEO at the end of the season.

You don't want to follow a Mickey Mouse club?

Stop forwarding cartoonish descriptions of the Demons currently working at the club, and stop trying to elicit a Mickey Mouse response from the club after 1 f___ing round.

If this sh!t keeps up we can deal with it at the end of the year.

To be honest I have no opinion either way as I don't know enough about the fellow in terms of the expectations on him and his performance.

However, one thing that I've noticed is that he appears to be 'remarkably' resilient.

From what we know, it appears that his head was on the chopping block the week before the Geelong game two years ago, yet not only did he survive (goodbye and thanks Mr Bailey), but he somehow managed a contract extension as well.

During the tanking investigation, the leaks coming from AFL house suggested that Bailey, Connolly and Schwab were in the gun, yet again the CEO came out the other side unscathed, while the other two weren't so lucky.

I know these incidents are not as clear-cut as I've described in actuality (186, Caro's personal vendetta), but it does get one thinking.

What is it about his presiding over club that has not finished higher than 13th since 2006, winning just 32 of 133 games, that makes it so hard to form an opinion about him?

Perhaps because those stats you have reeled off are misleading and unfair.

Especially considering he was not there in 2007 and 2008...

Why are you hell bent on tearing up this club after 1 round?

I don't se it the way you do, Rpfc.

The club is already torn apart. It's already Mickey Mouse. A basket case.

The horse has bolted and the fans want those who responsible for it held to account.

The pressure will continue to mount with each passing flogging.

I wonder what he will say/write on his white board session this week?

This is his 4th tenure as a CEO. The other three he left in questionable circumstances including his first stint with us where he was involved in our salary cap scandal which included secret over payments to Gary Lyon and left in disgrace. That cost us big money and draft picks that set our development back significantly in the early 2000's and never recovered. He is still a hated man at Richmond and Fremantle. Under his stewardship the clubs he represented have only made the finals once in more than 15 seasons.

Where was this animous last week, last month?

You were a staunch Neeld backer up until The Debacle © and now you are off and leading the mob you were against not a few weeks ago.

We wait to see how the players react and how they attempt to wrest back some respect and we make our important decisions without the drunk feeling of rage that is fueling Demonland right now.

We do our blood spilling in October.

I had epiphany at about 20 minutes in to the third quarter on Saturday. We've been duped.

The scoreboard does not lie.

What happens if we lose to GWS by 60 points rpfc? Hypothetical question. Do we still wait until October?

You are joking are you. The rage has been building up without pause since 186. Now we have yet another result that plumbs new depths of mediocority and you say lets wait to see how the players react. The supporters have been exceedingly patient.

Can we just wait and see the response?

I'm tearing up the club? That's laughable.

You're not doing it, but you want to see it happen.

And you're enjoying whipping some of the more feeble minded into a frenzy.

You revel in watching this club burn.

We've seen it many times before with different controversies.

Don't you ever get sick of the sound of your own voice..?

What if we lose by 187 on Sunday.

IMO it is possible

13th or lower since 2006. 101 losses, 32 wins.

If you can't whip yourself into a frenzy after that you deserve to die as a club. Simple as that.
