I’m convinced Dodoro has compromising photos of someone high up at the Bombers. The bloke has Teflon shoulders

Let's pray that DoDrito never learns to milk a draft using the same elasticity with double pike, triple twist and tight tuck he applies to the shenanigans in the Essenscum boardroom.

Someone at HQ who possibly won’t hate us. Great news. 

Good for him. It didn't say what his role is. Anyone know?

If he can survive working at Essendon then anything is possible, It's a good move for him.

One of the good people in footy, the AFL can only benefit from his input. 

I loved what Josh Mahoney bought to our club and was disappointed that he ventured to Essendon, I am so happy for Josh that he has been picked up by the AFL he will help make it a much smarter and fairer footy place and I like the changes  that Ross Dillon is making within the AFL.

I'm sure we all know who you mean. But it begs the question...is Ross any relation to Andrew Dillon?

the vitriol aimed at him from peptides' people is extraordinary - i thought he was a good egg?

i mean, i know he's part of the anointed afl bois' club, but they really seem to hate him

Essendrug people hate everyone. 
Feeling is mutual 

They still haven’t been in a world of pain yet. 
Their list is very overrated 

AFL-bound, for sure.

Many years ago now, I was a member the mfc, year after year. Joined after a passionate public plea from Jimmy. Then one year after having some financial struggles I was slow to renew. A cold call from Josh Mahoney himself seemed full of genuine spirit and desire to retain each member as every bit of help would have the club turn the corner soon. Whilst I was low on funds I had just found work and agreed that on the next payday I could make it work and would sign on again for what would have been a 10th year. He said he was excited to have me back and would personally call me that Friday to get me signed up once more. A decade has since passed. I’m beginning to think he has forgotten me.

being hated by the peptide's people would surely have to be a badge of honour and a good guy endorsement

Just because they claim to be rebuilding but also didn't have a single player in the 22-under-22 team doesn't mean there is anything wrong with their drafting and development. Just ask dodo.

Escape is survival! Basically Essendon club politics is a Resident Evil spin-off.

Just quit the AFL as GM Football Performance. City Hall not big enough for all the egos - including those incoming - perhaps?

I thought there'd be more discussion of this here.

Glancing at his responsibilities, which include vague portfolios touching umpiring, mystery operations, ball-tracking technology and other things, you'd have to say his time at the palace hasn't been a success. I do wonder to what extent it is his own failures and to what extent he was simply handed the [censored] bags to carry.

If there's any possibility he'll get cranky and spill on all the trash going on at AFLHQ, I'd be keen. Could Demonland invite him for the 'great historic podcast which brings down the regime'?

First lets get him back as Football Manager...he's very good in the role.

Would have him back tomorrow, he is a great operator and we need his skillset to return.

Ha ha ha this didn’t age well did it, everything from AFL has stunk it up. Where are all these people going, it’s like deck chairs on the Titanic???
