Pushed by Gordon I'm sure.

Smorgon hired him at age 35 and with only 6 years post footy (no doubt getting some experience during his career) in the business world.

Of course he had more footy knowledge than the average CEO, but that's not the core responsibility of the CEO as we know! Unless he was incredibly bright I don't think he had the experience needed to run a modern footy club. Particularly one like the Dogs where they are trying to grow throughout the Western Suburbs and doing things like their residential development.

I haven't had the opportunity to listen to any news today but he apparently signed a 3 year contract with the Dogs last year. So what's the story behind this - pushed or fell?

Pushed seemed to be the story behind the story ...

He was involved in a heated situation with Lamb and Butters,until things boiled over

Then I hear he was not worth his salt.

After that he went underground.

The word on him is he kept the vampires at bay for a while.

That's a fair shake of the source bottle mate!

***** = shlt

Cameron Schwab isn't currently employed by an AFL club as a CEO. Jus' sayin.

I don't think they would understand the Red White and Blue Print.

I wonder how the earthy denizens of South West Melbourne would react to the blazers and the marching band?

Not sure CBF but I do know I thought they were bloody awful.

If you have lived out there, you would know that there would be only two possible outcomes that could arise had blazers, bugles and marching band been introduced at the Whitten Oval.

1) Bemusement from the supporter base followed by a swift withdrawal of said concepts.

2) Rioting from the supporter base followed by CS's whiteboard markers and copy of that New England Patriots book he banged on about being violently inserted into his rectum.

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The Demons are back at the MCG once again and will once again be fighting for a spot in the Top 8 as they come face to face with Bombers on Saturday night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    VOTES: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    Captain Max Gawn has a considerable lead over the injured reigning champion Christian Petracca in the Demonland Player of the Year Award. Steven May, Jack Viney & Alex Neal-Bullen, make up the Top 5. Your votes for the win against the Eagles. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
