Guessing that's Josh Mahoney reaching in. 16 years is a long time to be at one place, especially for someone relatively young. Probs good for everyone involved really.

 

Highly thought of inside the industry. Twill be interesting to see if there’s external visibility on this loss over the course of the year.

We leaked a fair portion of our stories through Clark, so hardly a surprise he likes the guy.

That said, we’ve managed the media well I’ve thought. Mostly kept things in house until they were ready to go, made sure we got a fair hearing on our side of the story and also got our fair share of press.

Good luck to whoever takes over in a year that will likely be chaotic again, could see a coach firing and possibly even the board under pressure 


Never heard of this bloke but if he had responsibility for our website then probably best to part company

And????

 

Non-solicitation clause obviously not in Josh M’s contract -  amateur hour at the Dee’s.....

Was he responsible for sending out the finals marketing in 2017 the week before we made failed to make finals? That fiasco is still embarrassing!


I thought he got fired earlier in the year and ended up at the Dogs?

The communication with members has been woeful in recent years. If that was his brief, then a change was long overdue.

Unless we're also happy for Larkin to go.

(I have no idea if that's the case. I've never heard of the guy.)

Good luck to Ryan ( don’t think I’ve ever heard the name) but this comment made me laugh after clicking on the op link/tweet.

“Essendon supporters will be stoked. You can tell the Bombers really struggled last year with digital marketing, especially in the third quarter.”

Win a flag. That’ll sort our marketing out. 

good idea - email the club


I actually think our marketing department  do a fairly good job considering what they have to work with.

He must be feeling like a kid let out in a candy store. The money a big club like them have for marketing/digital compared to a small club like us will be massive. Having said that ideas are the key not resources. 

BTW, his dad reads and for a while posted on DL.

Ess wouldn't poach him if he wasn't very highly thought of.  PJ promoted him to the role so that says something and I think it is churlish to blame him for all the communication issues people perceive about the club.

While I think he is a loss, it is good for his career to get experience somewhere else.  I wish him every success

Absolutely agree.

Very thankful to Ryan. All the current day players and officials we have had on the podcast were organised through him.

I believe the finals communications were before he became the head of comms. In any event whilst it was bad optics, had we made finals and the mail outs were late people would be bitching about that [censored] up. Damned if you do and all that. Can't blame the comms team for not making the finals.

Communications have massively improved in Ryan's time at the club. I wish him all the best.

Wouldn't marketing/digital spend be part of the "soft cap"? I realise within the soft cap clubs will prioritise where they choose to spend their money but because of this cap I wouldn't have thought any club would be able to spend massively more on marketing and digital than any other club. 

If it's not part of the soft cap, then I agree with you.

The cap is for footy departments not club spending

Pretty certain soft cap is the football department. Originally brought in to even up the competition because big clubs were spending way more than small clubs with extra development, coaches, IT and stats support etc

Tough Gig.. Must enjoy polishing [censored] lol

Good Luck Ryan thanks for sticking with us for 16 years, but as I have found over my working life that as one door closes another one opens and I think that could auger well for us in the future at MFC.

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

  • CASEY: Collingwood

    It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
    The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
    Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
