  1. one could easily draw that inference, wr if true it would be a very poor direction to take. if the afl want pert out they could talk to the board and other senior club stakeholders, or even directly to pert, but to use a sleazy cutout like barrett is a bit odious (even by afl standards) i can't see a brad green directly standing up to the afl over this though, especially being a stand-in pres
  2. it's a bit worrying how the media reporting seems to have shifted to reporting on what's happening in club land to a position where they are increasingly trying to directly influence club decisions it would be ok for barrett to report that there are rumblings about pert's future but for barrett to come out and unequivocally call for pert's dismissal on his advice is really overstepping the role of the press we are increasingly seeing the media interfering in club management and decision making rather than just reporting on it the blatant click whoring is just getting worse and worse
  3. definitely not his call, whether one thinks he's right or not on top of this, this report is on the afl official web site and barrett is employed and writing for the afl so what is the afl's responsibility in this? if i was the club i would be making a strong complaint to the afl
  4. barrett still doubling down on clarry and pert Barrett Just now IF ... the Dees tried to shut down the Clarry talk late last week ... THEN ... it hasn't gone away. He still desperately wants out. And the Cats will try something before Wednesday night's trade deadline. Whatever the outcome, this club cannot continue with Gary Pert as CEO.
  5. looks like she's slightly changed comment to Michelle Oliver he’s not even in Shep. Shep is NOT his home town. Get it right media.
  6. and that's why you'll never be a journo, layz
  7. just normal trade time blues and boredom, with no footy to talk about like walking into a bar at 9am on a monday
  8. it's only good riddance if there is a better substitute and therein lies a bigger problem never mind, in the future AI-News will be the harbinger of a "real" truth 😎
  9. hey, that's an insult to toilet paper!
  10. the review(s) are currently underway ... and you are complaining about not being able to start a dialog with club executives about a different and new review ... really? don't expect any announcements from club until current review(s) are completed ... apparently sometime in october 24.
  11. i think it's a recognised sports genre now, red
  12. that was all last wed/thu news. nothing new added ... do they think the public are that fooled?
  13. clarry is also very naive, emotionally immature and very suggestible ... it's why he gets impulsively misled and into situations he doesn't handle well off the field ... let's just say he not the deepest thinker. having said all that awful stuff, he's still basically a shy country boy who can be quite likeable
  14. nothing on mine since gus's talk ... think it must be a meal break, or clarry has gone spack and they switched camera off
  15. lol the way the media are heading, most clubs will need to hire a dedicated crisis manager ... or just do a deal with the bikies
  16. don't forget there is a few people who have left the club in recent days, both staff and players not saying any of them have loose lips, but now they have left they may feel less obliged to fraternal secrecy
  17. from what i've heard, i don't think that is quite a true picture
  18. tommy boy setting things up for his next big expose. he'll be gunning for pert ... i won't mind, but
  19. the role (or non-role) of clarry's management team seems to be escaping any scrutiny given clarry's "special needs". have they at all times been interested in clarry's mental health issues or just treated him as profitable commodity?
  20. huh? pert: best culture he'd ever seen 😁
  21. yeah, i think his manager really pulled the wool over our eyes on a 7 year + $9M smackeroos contract, right in the middle of his meltdown. really looking a crazy deal. it's not that his behavioural problems were something new or fleeting
  22. if he really, really wants to go and we play hard ball, it will be interesting to see if he will take a new reduced salary contract at the cattery. if he does, no salary relief from us and cats prepared to give us a better trade/pick deal.
  23. here's a snip, which seems at odds with the headline
  24. you don't really believe that ... do you?
