The main thing with the feel good CEO is that he wants Dillons job

 

[Mister B]

Apart from the 1st HOF we have been treated like shit , like they don't need us anymore .
We used to have 1 big lunch a year , but not now , it's all about money

I feel like the connection with Vic fans has not been maintained since Morwood moved on.

I feel like the connection with Vic fans has not been maintained since Morwood moved on.

I'll always remember in 2005 when there was a small event at a South Melbourne pub to watch a replay of the Grand Final. Morwood walked in carrying a huge sports bag and went up on stage. To our surprise and delight he pulled out the premiership cup! We all got to have our photo taken with the cup.

Tony is still up there a couple of days a week with the foundation

It was the week after at the Rising Sun , a mate of mine owned it then , a great day

Leads to its own problems as Harley cannot rock the boat when he perhaps needs to

If he does he knows he has to wait until Dillon's tenure runs its course. Also difficult to politic from outside the snake pit.

And that's what i was getting at

 

[Membling]

Not particularly what you want in a leadership position

 

[Kiama Chris]

And that's what i was getting at

Not sure what boat he needs to be rocking. Pridham does a fair bit of challenging and surely that's his role where the CEO's is more internal?

 

[Mister B]

Yes he is. Not in the front facing role of looking after the Vic connection through members though. Heard anything on the grapevine that the club is looking at moving away from lake oval and setting up an office nearby the South Melbourne market? Can’t remember where but heard a whisper of it during GF week.

Correct opposite the South Market , no good for parking

It was a great day. Back then there were no smartphones and I wasn't aware that the premiership cup would be there so I didn't bring my camera. I'm sure it was the owner that took a photo of my dad and I holding the cup and he had the photo developed for us. It was probably your mate! He was very generous to do that.

I had mine with my late mum and the Cup

The AFL's Indigenous All-Stars are back after a decade in the wilderness, and the amount of talent they could put out on the field is frightening

A decade-long wait is over as the AFL announced the Indigenous All-Stars will play a fixture in the pre-season next year. The squad is poised to be one of the most talented football teams to ever set foot on a ground.

Good on Freo.

Something to look forward to that won't break our hearts.

 

[Ticky009]

I like Opening Round featuring only NSW & QLD teams, but the moaning on reddit has already begun.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Why? enduring Richmond and Carlton for a decade was painful enough.

 

[Kiama Chris]

I really don't know why they don't insert an additional bye round. Start where opening round does then Rounds 7, 8, 9 first byes and 15, 16, 17 second byes. 24 Rounds. 22 played.
Six teams each bye. Too simple?
Group 1 6, 8, 8
Group 2 7, 8, 7
Group 3 8, 8, 6

It took 29 years, but Freo have finally made a game interesting!

Times are hard. Even the 2-time premiership coach of the Geelong Cats needs a second job

Probably "accepted less" to coach Geelong. Just needed a 2nd job to make ends meet.

Nothing to see here...

Customer Engagement Manager

Job spec - do you have a social media account?
Job interview question - do you have a lot of followers?
Application response - Job is yours

... until you become irrelevant, which by sheer coincidence is when you leave the club. No cap implication at all...
