Oh we must surely win this weekend now...... All the players are going to commit to each other and the club... Watts is going to get 25 kicks, Pederson is not going to duck, it is all going to change...

I wonder if we will still make a profit each year going forward though... or sign that sponsor that many think Schwab couldn't...

Now lets see if he really was the cause of all our problems or just another scapegoat.

We are shooting them one by one until we find the problem. Lets hope we finally hit the jackpot.

Also slightly disappointed no live beard action.

Well, he has made it easy for us to move on from what happened a few years ago.

He should never have been given an extension but that isn't his fault.

For him to resign is the best outcome from our clubs perspective as Boards can be challenged but executives are expensive to remove.

He is a Demon despite his shortcomings and I hope we don't make the mistake that we seem to always make and that is make an enemy of a Demon who had the best interests of the club at heart.

He moves on.

We must move on too.

Wouldn't mind him staying on in some kind of Financial Advising capacity, if the financial success was actually his doing.

Good to see a change in administration though.

MELBOURNE CEO Cameron Schwab has quit.

His resignation comes in the wake of the Demons' dismal start to the season, highlighted by Saturday's 148-point loss to Essendon.

Wow massive news if true. there will be a lot of players happy now..

Yeah, one is retired, one plays for Geelong, one plays for Brisbane...

Cameron did this because it helps the club. I think it shows a great deal about the man who is blamed for all that is wrong at the club but as we will see in the next few months - is not the cause root of all evil.

That's right rpfc - keep sticking it in.

Does anyone else think that Adrian Anderson is a good chance to be appointed CEO? Any new CEO would have to get the AFL seal of approval.

That was not my intetntion. You should read the entire post.

The players have had a handy scapegoat fall on his sword today.

I hope their emotions are as vexed as mine are.

I just poated this in another thread about CS.

How much influence, both positive or negative does any club CEO have on the outcomes on the field other than properly resourcing and partially recruiting the football department? I need this explained to me by people who know the inner workings of football clubs.

Someone please explain.

If we when then we should sack the players as well!

I wonder if any of this was Range Rovers doing?

Nup. It was Cameron Schwab's doing.

Happy to take the abuse though (Stuie, Satyricon etc) to stand up for what's right.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
