I can see it now. Davies will get the Richmond job and Kochie will say it shows what a successful club we are.

Big bald rat deserting the sinking ship.
Overspent in draft capital and now getting out before the interest payments hit.
What a spineless campaigner.

Richmond headhunting Chris Davies vs PowerLil headhunting Chris Davies are very different actions. I don't really care which it is, just want him gone.

Isn’t it ironic and funny that Caro for weeks stuck up for Ken, and behind the scenes, Caro gets fed info from both CD, Ken, plus others, and as you said before, REH that CD and Ken are attached to the hip, and now CD is applying for the Richmond CEO job with Caro’s connections at the tigers and she wanted Ken at Richmond all those years ago. I find all of this very interesting.

Where did you hear this from? Fox Footy's AFL 360 or their AFL news program before that? Fox Sports News service?

Midweek Tackle with the journalists from the Herald Sun.
They mentioned he's been sniffing around a few gigs including the Saints job last year. Also mentioned although he's thrown his hat in the ring for Richmond, another bloke is favourite.

"So Chris, could you tell us something you're proud of at your previous position?"
"I kept Ken Hinkley at Port Adelaide for 12 years"
"Ahhh sorry Chris, we don't think you're the right fit for us".

He's got to be given the position before we can get too excited.

No no by the news. I didn’t expect it.

Regardless of what happens with CD, this is massive. Tredders has marked his territory and rattled the cages of the cancers, keeping our club behind from awaking the sleeping giant that we are. This news and the fallout from the Brisbane game make me think. What is said in board meetings and conversations between Tredrea and any of CD, Ken, and Koch, but more so between Tredders and CD and Ken privately, I reckon they say some absolutely beauty’s to one another box office sort of stuff. Hell, I reckon they’ve said below-the-belt sort of stuff to each other. God, you’d love to be a fly on the wall at Alberton, especially in the board room, but now that Chris Davies has applied for the CEO role, he cannot be allowed in any meeting regarding our club because his interests are not with Port Adelaide, and I hope, even though he doesn’t yet have the Richmond CEO position, we have to start searching for a new GM. I get the fact that he is doing what’s best for him and fair play, but the timing of this is so wrong for us as a club. Our season is in the balance at best, and this news now just unnecessarily adds fuel onto the fire. that's starting to go out of control, especially if losses start to add up and the losses could get ugly. All though it may be a blessing in disguise and it may force the board to act, you still can’t keep someone with their's interests elsewhere. He’s already committed offences like overspending draft capital and creating new contracts for the likes of constantly resigning Dixon to appoint Hartlett, Lobbe, Kelly, Goldsack, and Chad Cornes, putting these people in development and assistant coach roles around a man who he has recommended to the board in every single contract extension when Ken's contracts comes up for renewal. All of these offences made him sackable, and now, as WGT famously said, he's untenable. He gotta go.

Let's hope he hasn't totally *ed us over by handing out long undeserved contracts to the likes of Lobbe, Hartlett, Sutcliffe, Williams etc as well as Hinkley multiple times over
