Pert gets this Summer to sort out this mess. I will judge him next year

And how are you judging PJ and Roos right now who left him with this s@$t sandwich. And PJ left him with a $2mill revenue hole by pulling out of pokies and not replacing the revenue. But I suppose you think that’s Pert’s fault as well

    Not quite sure PJ left him with anything. 

    From my understanding he had nothing to do with the decision about Pert.

    I don’t blame Pert at all...

    this is far more Football Department problems at this Point. But as CEO he now has to go flat out to get it sorted

    He didn't. Had he though we'd  probably  have Mahoney.

    Damned  either way perhaps

    Current football department issues aren't Pert's fault.

    The club's response in the coming months are for what he should be judged.

     

    New Balanced signed on for three more years; he's had a good week.

    I would thought the credit there lies with the Marketing Dept TPF.

    Irrelevant. Marketing Dept  gets paid big bucks and does the sell.

    you clearly don't understand how corporate negotiations work

    the marketing dept certainly does not sign off major partnerships

    It's not irrelevant. They report to the CEO. They're paid the big bucks to do a job, which is held to account by the CEO. The higher the pay grade, the fewer the number of people above you.

    CEO is held to account by the board. The board by members/stakeholders.

    This is how organizations work. If the marketing department doesn't deliver, the CEO asks why, and the board asks why of the CEO. The board isn't going to the marketing team to see why a sponsor wasn't signed.

    Actually I do a family member was Marketing Manager at a successful AFL Club for 20 years. He was responsible for attracting what is the longest running sponsorship in the league. His job, his initiative brought the sponsor in, he was rewarded and still is acknowledged for it. Not the long forgotten CEO of the time.

    one instance from over 20 years ago; that's gotta be sydney with qbe, i presume?

    i worked at a club where a sponsor was brought in by the media department

    these are the exceptions, not the rule

    the likes of media and marketing depts have little to do with corporate negotiations as rule

    Surely we are due for a crisis meeting. Surely after last night.

    Listened to Pert on the Inside Melbourne podcast and he come across as pragmatic and assured. Despite the disaster that 2019 has been our club has managed the fall out well and looks to have a clear plan for turning things around in the off season.this goes for Goody as well who is clearly under alot of pressure but working hard to turn things around. I certainly think we are capable of turning 2020 into a successful year if the players/coaches/admin all do their bit and supporters get along to games.

    My biggest issue with Pert is that he keeps Chaplin in the job.

    And if we lost New Balance?  Where would your blame lie..?

    Marketing and sponsorship is a significant element of Pert’s role.

    Wouldn't that be Mahoney's responsibility as GM of football?

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
