I will be honest I thought Peter Jackson was basicaly playing musical chairs (comes in for Schwab and then leaves in 6 months). I underestimated the ability/power of a CEO and thought he would basicaly do very little. Well looks like I was wrong - CEO's seem to be the spine of the football club (who would have guessed judging by Schwabs known influence). He seems to be willing to make the decisions that for so long we haven't been able to make. Although I am now skeptical - how much power does this guy have? can we put our faith in basically one person who seems to report to a board meeting once a month?

Anyway ............. Let the heads roll Jackson!

Maybe that is exactly the explanation for our current position - no spine anywhere. Lets hope that PJ lives up to his expectations and delivers: we have seen that he can elsewhere, given the right environment and structure and support.

GO DEES.

The thing I love about Peter Jackson is that I love hearing him speak. There's no pre-thought up lines or well-worn cliches, no smug smile and no condescending tone. He's honest, knowledgeable and gives full, respectful answers with a tone of respect. Like he's not hiding from the truth, and doesn't feel he needs to do so to protect his position. I always felt with Schwab that he was trying to give me a condescending reach-around. I couldn't stand to hear him speak, and if people don't want to listen to the CEO then you're in trouble.

As for Peter Jackson, sign me up for his newsletter and send me his audiobooks for Christmas, loving his presence at the club so far.

No faith in anything anymore except the promise of death one cold grey day.

What point is there?

It's all a vain struggle against the inevitable .

Hope this Stoic reality provides you all with some solace .

I'll judge him in 5 years time, when he has a mature CEO body.

Old dee, did you create a new account?

Great to have a decisive , baggage-free administrator in PJ . Never understood the aura around the off-field Garry Lyon particularly as he supported his mate Tiger Ridley during the merger kerfuffle .

No I think its Peter Jacksons Dad.

Reminds me of my CEO who is also a [censored] that uses big words to justify cutting bonuses, pay rises and promotions.

At least Schwab genuinely loved the club and spent the cash on desks, and not paying off lawsuits.

Can Peter Jackson do Tuesday Blackboard Nights?

I got upset when he opened his month. He needs to threw away the text book and really try and understand what he is saying.

The guys does not have a clue.

ever heard the expression...Dont do as I do , do as I say ? lol

Yeah I believe the loan was paid back in full. To be honest I don't understand peoples negativity toward young Schwab. One day we will all come to appreciate Cams real legacy. The finest collection of office desks ever assembled by any sporting organisation in the world !

So who voted No to being unhappy with Peter Jacksons appointment? Was it you Cameron.

Was the 5 who voted against having faith in Peter Jackson judgement, Mark Neeld, Cameron Schwab, Don Mclardy, Tim Harrington and Guy Jalland by any chance?

Schwab was king of the "mission statements".

I hate mission statements.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
