New MFC CEO

[beelzebub 23,383]

Thats some good news for the club and hopefully means sponsors will look upon the club in a much more favourable light.

I reckon there is unfortuantely ( in a manner ) more truth to this than we'd like to acknowledge..

Any chance MFC can hold press conferences before someone else releases to the media our new staff, first Williams on Dean Bailey and now Golf Australia beats the club to this anouncement. Paul welcome to the MFC look on the bright side it can't get much worse the only way is up both on and off the field.

i still cant see anything on the club website lol

[w00dy 146]

this is great news... will be great for the profile of our club...

what i'd love to see the club do now is poach fox from Geelong as their 2nd in charge... his AFL experience coupled with macnamee's skills would be a great partnership, in a similar fashion to the way we recruited Chris Connolly to work with Dean Bailey...

Awesome name by the way, Stuart Fox. Makes him sound smart, even if he is not. In the same league as Max Power for mine.

Fair call but you would expected neitz with a reebok jumper swapping with a player sponsored by reebok not adidas

Great appointment if you consider the lengths that he went to obtain the position.

If he shows the same commitment, and innovation, during his time at Melbourne, it can only be very beneficial for our club.
