Cricket Australia is looking down the barrel at a Meth Coke level rebuild. They should have begun the process 12 months ago, but instead we had to have the Cheats Farewell tour. 
We now have a huge problem

One name not mentioned anywhere is Josh Blanksby who left MRC recently.
 

He was mentioned when Richmond were hunting for a CEO.
 

I don’t think he is right (no footy background and he seemingly was a big part of the botch-job of the Caulfield redevelopment) but I am surprised he hasn’t been floated due to his intimate knowledge of Caulfield/the Trust and our clear ambitions there.

 

Another person with a similar history to Josh Blanksby is Andrew Giles, CEO of VicRoads. Before that he was CEO of Racing Victoria and before that CEO of Betfair (Josh Blanksby also worked for Betfair). I'm not sure what would be easier - mending potholes or player relationships.

Giles Thompson.  Famous for letting V’landys walk all over racing Vic and near-ruin our Spring racing carnival.

gerard healy offered up two names - justin rodski (current melbourne storm ceo, ex-peptides cmo) and greg swann (currently bears ceo, afl admin veteran) as two names

he seemed more certain that rodski is talking to us, but flagged swann as someone we should be talking to, or that the afl might want to bring back in house as part of dil and laura's exec team

several people i've spoken to today about rodski rate him enormously highly

Interesting. I thought I had heard a while ago the Brisbane Bronco's were after Rodski, but he was staying in Melbourne.

I think the Broncos were pursuing Frank Ponissi rather than Rodski

if Ponissi tries to move clarry on behind the back of the club, we have a ponzi scheme.

Jay Clarke tweeted that David Stevenson (NBL) and Simon Garlick are names in our CEO hunt (he didn’t give much more context.

mentioned Swann likely to extend with Brisbane.

Stevenson at a disadvantage as ceo of a privately held company, I suspect?

I would imagine Simon would remain in Perth, his boy Sonny heading in to Yr 11 and settled in school. Be surprised if he moved

Don't know much about him nor the NBL under Larry K to be honest…

Would rather Fox tbh.

David’s a great guy and a mad Demons supporter. I went to school with him.

David Stevenson was the CEO of the Bulldogs in their Premiership year in 2016. 
 

Of those mentioned on the unofficial ‘shortlist’, those names are certainly well credentialed 👍🏼


Charlie Gardiner would have to be under consideration for our CEO role no doubt. 
 

Cut from the Sydney cloth as an administrator and we know how well they’re run.

He was their executive general manager of football from 2019 to this year. Moved back to Melbourne end of 23’ for family reasons. In the running for the Pies job as head of footy but wants to be a CEO ultimately.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
