The paywall prevents me from reading the article but like the Winter Olympics and the Ice Cricket, I’m sure the subject will leave me cold.

Seems to be a lot of disgruntled employees

jobs given to family members sometimes, rather than the most qualified...

Sounds like a complete overhaul starting at the top might be needed.

The first thing needed  is to get a new GM who is not one of the old boys club.

Then let him work out who stays and who needs to be bought in from the outside.

On the later I think quite a number.

What is the chances of it happening?

Low at best the OBC will not be easy to dismantle because I think it starts from the top at board level.

In all seriousness, that’s a massively wild claim, are you able to extrapolate, JV7??

Did they finally realise the "Gil is a Dil" isnt some cute rhyming joke, but the truth.

FFS the best thing he has done for the game is lower the cost of food...

I'v heard from 2 different sources within the AFL Gill will be "stepping down" most likely to take a role at crown.

Gil stepping down to take a role at Crown was well publicised late last year. The story came and went pretty quick though.

The crown part may have stemed from that. Who knows where it'll end up, that many deals would go down behind the scenes no'oe outside the AFL would know, Leathlan may have been paid to shut up or the AFL helped him get the St.Kilda job to keep quiet. All I know as of 2 weeks ago I was told he was leaving.

Gillon has always preferred doing a deal to the application of due process. That kind of cynical appointment was eventually going to bite the AFL.

Hmmm I see what you're getting at. Gil for PM.

Every time I hear a Gil to resign rumour I get nervous about Peter Jackson being tapped for CEO. Then I contemplate whether that might actually be a good thing, before giving up and going back to watching reruns of Mr. Robot.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
