Think he is a long way from player management these days. Don't know where this boneheaded rumour has come from, but I call it patent bulltish.

Would be very surprised if Kelly was even interested in a role like this.

It was me. You're looking quite the bonehead now. From today's news.
I gave it to you a day early.
Not set in stone but I'm hearing Ned has put his hand up.

TLA boss, and former Collingwood great, Craig Kelly could loom large for the Magpies after 26 years helping lead the giant management company.

Kelly’s signature would be a huge coup for president Jeff Browne amid industry speculation the Magpies already have a quality candidate lined-up.

Kelly’s son, Will, is on Collingwood’s list but the Magpies could dodge any issues by leaving his contract matters to football boss Graham Wright.
Wright faced the same situation when he was at Hawthorn and signed Ned Reeves to the Hawks’ list where his father, Justin, is chief executive.

Need something more than the idle musings of a journo.

I want to hear more stories about your pool games with the boys.

Being honest I didn't see that.
Kelly just struck me as an obvious candidate.
I also like James Clement and Mark Bouris but they live interstate.

Good stuff mate. Hope we get him.
Unless someone even better is on our radar.

Did you know Mark Anderson was leaving?

Former Essendon CEO Xavier Campbell will not be a candidate for the Collingwood CEO position that became vacant last week after Mark Anderson resigned following five years in the job.

Collingwood appointed football manager Graham Wright as interim CEO after Anderson’s resignation with Campbell touted as a potential replacement.

However, he is expected to take a break from the AFL industry for at least 12 months as he develops a beer brand, Travla, and does corporate consultancy work.

Collingwood had a list of people they were interested in pursuing to replace Anderson, yet it was not clear whether Campbell was on that, with the Magpies joining North Melbourne and the Bombers as clubs looking to fill the role.

Gawn, Grundy to thrash out ‘unique’ ruck pairing; Campbell not in mix for Pies; Chiocci takes aim at finals scheduling

As the Magpies search for a new club CEO, women’s captain Steph Chiocci says it’s the wrong call to host Saturday’s AFLW semi-final at Punt Road. Meanwhile, Max Gawn and Brodie Grundy will discuss ruck tactics this week.

Would Craig Kelly be good for us in this role at this time, in arguably one of the most influential positions at the club? I know he’s been highly successful, but just when we seem to finally be modernising the club - this feels like a backward move. An old mate, with potential conflicts and connections to maintain?

Elements of a captains pick too with Browne “running the search”.
 
The fact is that Andersen had been throwing his CV around for a while.
He’d done his job. He needed to go.
They would have been sounding people out for a while. It’s not like the first time Kelly has been linked.
I just hope he maintains his comparatively low profile.

We could do a helluva lot worse than Craig - Collingwood man through and through and a proven corporate performer.

Its the ‘through and through’ that bothers. ‘Old’ Collingwood was not successful enough, given our resources, and I’m concerned that Kelly may be an easy option.

I think he’d make a good President, but the CEO is more hands on and a more critical position to fill. We have to get the best available in such an influential role.
 
And while I’m still mid-rant - Pies fans tend to be happy when we appoint ex-Pies to jobs. I’m guilty of this too. But it hasn’t done us any favours in the past.
