Dees appoint Chief Commercial Officer

[spirit of norm smith 16,468]

We need CASH and sponsorship. We get sponsors in April and May !! Its embarrassing.

I will judge his appointment when we get major sponsors !!!

this year is irrelevant

its about next year

Geez bb have not heard that in the last 7 years!!!

It's getting a bit monotonous tbh and quiet frankly very farting annoying.

I reckon there will be a few bombers ones looking for new homes in 2014

Kia would look good on a red and blue background.

Its high time Joseph (Gutnick) was back about the club again...

how about it Jo,, come on back & support the club again... we've learnt most of our needed lessons.

And we don't play matches anymore on Friday nights or Saturday afternoon so you can watch all the games live.

we need cash flow and sponsorship. It should not be the job of the CEO to do it all.

It is a clever move if he is the right choice.

Office next door to PJ....

Of course he's the right choice he's AFL appointed, Mark Neeld and Cameron Schwab could be the best things to ever happen to this club.

Wasnt he that guy who piloted the qantas airbus after the engine blew up?

Good man to have on board if he has experiences in avoiding plane crashes, because we basically are one.

That was Richard de Crespigny, though I'm sure they're all related. For those on this site who bemoan public school boys, the Champion de Crespigny family are strongly connected with Melbourne Grammar.

Yes i have thought that at times don't worry!!!

[Swooper 255]

I know him loosely through uni and common friends. He's a good man, a football person, switched on and a good operator from all reports. Obviously he will be trying mightily to right the ship, so he has a big job ahead of him!

Played Reserves for us in '97. Practically an MFC legend http://demonwiki.org/george+de+crespigny

Thanks for that Supermerc. Solid CV for the job based on the following snippet :

"De Crespigny later served as the AFL's Business Development Manager and Manager Corporate Partners before moving to the ACT and becoming General Manager of Brumbies Rugby for the Rugby Union side."

Another AFL connected appointment. If he was good enough for them he's good enough for us. Wouldn't want his job in the next couple of years. Hope it's not performance based, I wouldn't want to be trying to get sponsors with the state the Club's in at the moment. Won't be easy until we have a team that starts being competitive and people want to watch.
