AFL'S SUPER PANEL. The make up of the AFL's new 12-person "super panel" - now renamed as the "Competition Committee" - has been released. No fan rep though...

The panel reps are:
Club presidents Colin Carter (Geelong), Eddie McGuire (Collingwood) and Peggy O'Neal (Richmond).
CEOs Andrew Fagan (Adelaide), Justin Reeves (Hawthorn) and Andrew Ireland (Sydney). ...
Coaches Chris Fagan (Brisbane) and Brad Scott (North Melbourne).
Football managers Chris Davies (Port Adelaide) and Craig Vozzo (West Coast).
Players Patrick Dangerfield (Cats) and Steven May (Gold Coast).

Steve Hocking: "The AFL sought to balance representation across all parts of the competition, as well as the many different senior roles within our game – players, coaches, administrators, senior volunteer officials," Hocking said.

He forgot about fans though.....

The AFLFA contacted the AFL about having an AFLFA fan representative on the panel once its existence became public knowledge. The AFL initially wrote back and said the AFLFA would be in consideration however we did not hear from the AFL again after this.

Steve Hocking will chair the panel while the League will be represented by Jason Ball, Kylie Rogers and Nicole Livingstone.

Head of competitions and player movement Josh Vanderloo, and game analysis manager Patrick Clifton, will take part in meetings when necessary.

    Thanks to the Australian Football League Fans Association for this. Apart from the fact there is no fan club president or cheer squad leader on the panel, even as a token, I'm a little surprised at a couple of the inclusions.

    It's just another nonsense.

    The AFL supposedly has a charter.

    Yes it is...

    Another layer for Dill to consult along with his polling before making a decision.

    I actually find this type of stuff depressing, it offends me that they think I might believe their BS.

    Nice to see that 4 of the five categories have complete knobs, specifically:

    Eddie McGuire, Brad Scott, Chris Davies and Dangerfield.

    Be curious to know what the criteria was for this popularity contest.

    Anyone can see this panel is to advance the rich clubs to help them get bigger, every club should have 1 rep only not mostly Geelong and collingwood, they will be  bias to their own clubs all the small clubs will get screwed over.

    Not always - the panel looks like genuine quality football people. I would not worry - if we the MFC had any concerns I’m sure the AFL would listen to us. Yes, it’s dissapointing we did not get a seat but the MFC as a whole club has to prove itself worthy and demonstrate in can put the game in front of self-interest - now that’s the big challenge for us.  

    Anyway Peggy O’Neal is there we will be fine.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
