Roles of the President and the CEO

There are plenty of posts about the types of person these roles require. For example some seem to think a president should have a high profile and others think that the CEO should be making public statements while the team is not performing. The roles of these positions are probably defined somewhere but I was wondering what people expect of them. I personally don't care if the president has a high profile; she/he should be business savy and recognise opportunities and set goals accordingly. I would probably add can & does put in the hours. It would also be great if they can make a speech that raises the hair on your neck (Spencer could do this) but probably just one guy at the club that can do this is enough.

    well said, the president should be the only one speaking at this time, not ex players and wanna bees.profile means very little, action should be inhouse and not public. emails to members let us know whats going on not the herald sun and mark robbo and mike sheahan

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
