I'm currently in the middle of listening to and thoroughly enjoying some Essential Leonard Cohen..Should I stop or is this the same as his Bluey speech?

    I’ll speak to Steve Smith about it the next time we have lunch?!

    He's changed his tune a little on priority picks. He didn't come out and dismiss the idea entirely for Carlton and GWS but he was a lot more circumspect than he was in 2014 when we were applying for one.

    However, the man rarely wastes a word. He blasphemes a bit but he is the ultimate straight shooter.

    I had a slight chuckle to myself when the Gaz Man was talking about the state the club was in when PJ arrived in the sense that most of that damage was caused by the whole Hollywood Boulevard set.

    Really interesting stuff.  PJs view on who the most important people in a club are in order:

    1. CEO and President/board who supports the CEO.

    2. List management.

    3. List management.

    4. List management.

    5. Coach

    I'm sure Clarko, the Scott brothers, and a few others would have that list reversed.....

    He is impressive due to his clear thinking, simplicity of thought and spoken word, his honesty and his common sense. 

    He is also humble but confident in achieving outcomes. 

    He makes it seem so simple even when its not, that is his gift.

    Peter Jackson  you are my hero and always be indebted to you for helping the club l love out of some very dark years.The club is finally starting to look like  it belongs and respected. Yes we are the Demons and you are one for life.

    Words can’t express it anymore. He will be very hard to replace and we are just going to have to wait and see how Pert goes. To be fair it was always going to be big shoes to fill for anyone but still. 

    We’ll miss him, the ultimate professional.

    Can't work out if this is fan-boy or cryptic. ?

    According to my greatest hits Leonard Cohen CD, So Long Marianne is followed by Sisters of Mercy and Famous Blue Raincoat. Brock is a famous Blue turn-coat, I assume Marianne is Jess Hogan, but who these sisters might be has me beat? But apparently Everybody Knows?

    PJ was the CEO we needed when he came in. Perty is the CEO we need now going forward.  No CEO is more experienced at Facilities and Membership growth and best practice. HIs experience for these next steps is way superior to PJ's which is not to detract from anything PJ has achieved.

    Jackson did a wonderful job in turning the club around. He, Paul Roos and Glenn Bartlett deserve a hell of a lot of credit. PJ was the catalyst for our turnaround in my opinion. We weren’t an AFL standard club by any tangible measure when he walked through the door.

    Here's hoping mate. The guy has some excellent credentials, hopefully we can grow the club but not forget the foundations that were put in place.

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
