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

    http://www.realfooty.com.au/news/news/mcna...5602388383.html

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

    After reading that article its made me even more impressed, mcnamee has gone out of his way and surveyed the surrounding areas to find out the real plight of the club and how he would go about fixing it... good stuff..

    Im really excited about the off field team we have in place now...

    nervous, but excited... anyone else?

    i'm listening now...this is good news i hope...just quickly, i was going to ask before, who does conlan work for?

    bloody brilliant news, our new off-field team is certain to raise the profile and maybe have enough gonads to stick for the club when the media and clubs are having free-kicks at us

    The vision of McNamee and Connolly in the same room is frightening.

    Who else would get a word in?

    Great appointment and congratulations to both the MFC and Paul.

    The fact that Paul is not a football man is irrelevant, that is Connelly's job. Paul is here to make all those MFC ideas a reality namely:

    - Casey Fields summer base

    - China

    - New Home

    - Team Melbourne

    But most importantly attract the Corporate support to fund these things and get us out of debt!

    Paul is a man, I believe, that can make these ideas float! Exciting times to be involved with the MFC!

    Bailey, Connelly and McNamee great appointments and a lot of credit has to go to Paul Gardner, although some people on this site don't think he is doing a good job! :wacko:

    quite an interesting read isnt it.:) I think we'll finally see a lot more effort made to raise the profile of the club now. You get the impression he really wanted he job. He strikes me as a lateral thinker and someone who doesnt confine their efforts to things you find only in boxes :)

    Yep, I'm looking forward to seeing us have a much greater presence in the media then we have for the last five years.

    There's nothing like free advertising.

    an exciting appointment and what one would describe as a massive coup...

    look at the sponsorship of the aussie open during his years in charge and also the necessity for increased prize money, the hopman cup and growth of this tournament...

    the golf was an interesting one and what he has done for this was eveident this eyar but moreso going forward.. the concept of the par 3 colloseum and the press that one hole received was amazing....

    was described by the head of golf as being a little left of centre in his ideas...

    I think that we now have a strong administration team in place..

    now for onfield!!

    Does anyone know if McNamee had anything to do with the SmartCup Invitational down at Flinders?

    Great news ..... and great to have a (rare) positive thread on Demonland.

    Go DEES

    Paul is very excited about the challenge ahead. HUGE job and MASSIVE WIN for the Dee's. ! He is definitely one of the best in the business. You only have to see where he took the Australian Open (tennis) and more recently, the accolades re Australian Opens (golf). He is innovative, entrepreneurial, determined and…..used to working with lots of people….expects perfection……and…….boy, I’m making him sound like God!!!!! Well, I have a close friend who has worked with him for 20 years now and knows him inside out.

    In the lead up to our game on sunday...ITS GREAT NEWS!

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
