Do a bit of googling with Caroline Wilson. He was strongly favoured by AFL HQ too. Just as Peter Jackson was back in the day.

Instead we got a guy with no footy background at all.

Guerra just has to land Caulfield to get a statue, that’s it.

    A CEO is basically the business manager and he has to be good at running the business.

    We have seen “fan boys” and “wanna be coaches” before and a good footy CEO doesn’t necessarily have to be an ex jock and if you have a good FD boss, who can run the FD well and report to the CEO, that may be a better result.

    Think Cameron Schwab and the whiteboard.

    I agree that a new home base is Priority No. 1 for the incoming CEO. Who makes the footy department decisions in the next few months? - in the decisive way that Peter Jackson did back in 2013. Will it be the Board, the acting CEO, Alan Richardson.....?

    How do you know what business acumen I have? Some full on tossers here who keep barking the same condescending tripe.

    The incoming CEO has a project to Finish, why should he leave a job half done, when it was the MFC who contacted him?

    We have a perfectly good interum CEO till September

    Not just a ‘government job’ friend, he is head of VECCI who are hosting the World Chambers Congress in September, hence why he can’t just step away and he’d be burning some big bridges if he did - the opposite of what you’d want someone in his position to be doing.

    Should be using the six months lining up some new sponsors of MFC via World Chambers Congress attendees!

    I put in a personal request to him re his priorities - fix the goalkicking!!!!

    What a fuss about nothing in this thread. I bet if the team was winning this thread wouldn't have even appeared.

    Wouldn't count on it.

    Demonland, where there's always something to [censored] about.

    The inability to google something before demanding answers and a pound of flesh is something of a clue.

    Cameron Schwabb was even more strongly favoured by the AFL. That ended up well!

    It is kind of funny how the old CEO was/is still part of the project and the new CEO hasn't started yet but is doing work on it as well

    I saw our incoming CEO at the footy today.

    Casual guy in his jeans, runners & Melbourne jacket.

    But some people recognised him because they stopped him for a chat which he was happy to do

    I think (hope) that we are not so incompetent that we can't pick a decent CEO and President.

    Just a waiting game.

    No, we have never been and never will be that incompetent.

    He's not MIA. He comes down to the front of N53 and sits with some people he knows for a quarter or two each home game.

    My god this thread is ridiculous. It’s ok that you don’t understand how transitioning from executive roles actually works, but for your own sake stop digging yourself further into this hole of stupidity you find yourself in

    • CASEY: Footscray

      The Casey Demons faced a tough first up task taking on reigning VFL premiers Footscray at Mission Whitten Oval. The Bulldogs, who unfurled their premiership flag pre-game, had 15 AFL-listed players and their top VFL talent available, setting them up for their 15th consecutive win.

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.
