As mentioned in another thread, he's going to be a great get for whoever gets him.

Has worn a few different hats in the governance and footy department side of things.

If he enjoys a challenge he will! 🤣

I for one would think it would a fantastic coup if the Melbourne Football Club could obtain the services of Jimmy Bartel.

Dont get me wrong Supreme, i think he would be awesome for us, just with all the absolute tripe going on at our club, why would he want to put himself in that position????

Just cant see it happening. Hopefully im wrong

The racial thing has been swept under the carpet, we are helping keep that out of the papers. No that the media would report it anyway, its Collingwood, nothing to see here.

We'd be saved, born again, etc, etc!

But Jimmy'd be an OK second best.

I’d be a pretty strong advocate for him, have heard some mixed things about him as a person but he’s obviously been involved at a high level in multiple clubs.

Think a role at Melbourne would suit him better than Collingwood, we are probably a little more in need

What an odd post.

You'd be a strong advocate for him, but have heard mixed things?

What is going on today? Demonland is bizarro world.

Oh FFS... Bartel?

This effing club...

Interesting.

I’m a big fan. Very clean composed and considerate from what I’ve seen of him post footy. Would be a good appointment and an upgrade in a variety of roles. If he’s keen on contributing to the club, sign him on.

Lacking some punctuation, sorry God!

I’ve heard mixed things about him as a person, but purely from a football sense, I would strongly advocate for him.

Don't we want good people given the head of footy role is very much a people role too?

I think I may be the only person who thinks his football insights are often very low cognition. 

Happy to be driven wrong but this is up there with Rory Sloane.

Sure we do, although at the moment, I think Jimmy would offer a strong and different point of view to the leadership clique we currently have.

Any chance that the [censored] in charge of our player recruiting can get us a player or two.  Actually, I'll rephrase 'can get us a player or two who are very good"

Claz met with Geelong again today I'm told.

Jimmy Bartel would add strong culture and leadership.  Definitely like to see us pursue him.  

Dees looking for quality people to bring in.  
Also heard we are speaking to Rory Sloane.  Genuine guy.  Genuine leader.

Agree whole heartedly.

Jimmy is one of my all-time favourite players and football people. Would be thrilled to have him at the dees in any capacity.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
