CAC gone

Oh well. As it is official, thanks again Craig and all the best for the future.

Cya Craig

Gotta say I loved your work, but Ill never understand why you would choose Terry Solarium Wallace and Greg The Snake Miller over the MFC

Thanks for all of your hard work.

Can't say I wish Richmond any success, but CAC certainly deserve all of our best regards.

hmmm disappointing.

Will he still be at the helm for the pre-season and rookie drafts?

Thanks for all of your hard work.

he wouldnt be and he shouldnt be if hes involved in Richmond

good luck cac

i initially thought that we would be but maybe not anymore

I would have thought that even if CAC was the most professional man in the industry, this would still be too clearer conflict of interest (and Moral Hazard, for those accounting buffs ) for the club to have him in charge of the PS and Rookie drafts.

As for choosing Wallace and Miller, I doubt he'll have to worry too much about the latter. The writing is now carved deep into the wall. Just pray that we don't get that berk at Melbourne.

i trust the club in finding someone adequate..but they should have a long selection process

Now lets get someone who can find us a real *Star*.

let's not get into the "star" debate again sleeve

i disagree... we have no one else who is qualified like he is to sit at the selection table for the rookie draft...

we've paid him for the last 7 months to watch football, football and more football and now some of the result of that is coming uo, the rookie draft and we don't get his input? it would be like effectively having paid for half the salary of richmond's head recruiter for the season, and not having one ourselves...

i think CAC will be professional enough to sit at the MFC table next tuesday and round out a fine stint at the melbourne football club...

This is actually a blessing in disguise. It's a chance for a completely new start for the club, fresh ideas and approach.

Good lord - no wonder we never win flags!

CAC should be concerned at the mere perception of a "conflict of interest". And MFC should have the common sense to stand him down. There is a team of recruiters after all and they all know who they rate and in what order.

See you Craig - hope you fail miserably in your new job.

Sad to see you go CAC. Dont wish you any luck at richmond, but personally all the best

Well that sucks but no point in crying over spilt milk

thanks for the good times and the great players

His qualification is beside the point. As his integrity should be. He has already announced his intentions, and any drafting decisions (especially contentious ones) will instantly have that conflict-of-interest stigma attached to them. I'm not saying that CAC wouldn't be professional enough to put his new allegiance aside, but I expect that the club has the information he has gathered for them already; his part has already been played, save for him actually calling names out. As such, for the sake of having him call a few names, we could do without any speculation from the cynical half of the football community as to his motivations.

In a nutshell, he has already done what he was paid for; gather information about the best young footballers in the country. He may have the final say, but he does not make decisions on his own. His presence at the PS and rookie drafts would be token at most. I don't think it's necessary or worthwhile at this stage.

why the hell are people wishing him luck...just when he finally startedd doing some good work (last 2-3 drafts) he leaves us for the ferals...

i wish him no such thing and hope he fails misrably just like judkins did at the filth when he left the scum

Theres a difference between thanking someone and wishing them well...as i do ....and wishing them success and luck !!!hehehe

[censored] him... why would he leave us to join a deadbeat club like richmond...

dont thank him, apparently he was helping rebuild.. and deserts us when we need him..

hope richmond stay at the bottom of the ladder for 50 years, its where the belong

Whilst i can appreciate the frustration and possible angst ,after all following football is a passion it really isnt called for to denigrat eanyone. He ( CAC) served in his position professionally. It is after all a job !! He now has another..its as simple as that.

In all professions and walks of life people move from A to B. Its life.. its also nothing to get terribly excited or upset over. He will be replaced in some fashion as all people are. Who knows , the next might be even better and would all those throwing grenades currently be so inpsired ?

We ( mfc ) know who is in the PSD. Do you seriously suggest it was going to be a last minute decision ? of course not. Neither will the Rookie draft.

People...take a deep breath..Its all ok.. and we move on!!

Luck cac. :angry:

The only reason to get angry is CAC had just signed a 3 year contract, now wishes to break his contract and leave the club, where is the integrity <_< .

Thanks Craig for all your hard work at MFC. We all hope to see the fruits of your labour for years to come. I appreciate your friendly, accessible and open approach. You will be sorely missed. Good luck for your future - and may you have a never ending series of mid range picks at Richmond.

Unfortunately in today's business world there is no loyalty.
