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 its a choice between Collingwood  or us and he wants to get back into club land, do people really think he would choose us??????????

    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

    Well to be fair Collingwood aren't squeaky clean at the moment.

    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.

    Get Him

    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 were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.
