Finally, a quick update on the search for our new CEO following Ben Amarfio’s resignation earlier this month. The Board will in the coming days finalise the appointment of a subcommittee comprised of directors and club executives, with some external support, to find our new CEO. The club will be in great hands with Ben working through until October 31 but we are determined to get that process moving over this next crucial period. -Sonja Hood
Wow. Great for us, and love the honesty, but not sure how I'd feel reading that if I was Freo, that he's publicly stating he's open to offers elsewhere. Unless he's using it to get a better deal at Freo.Link for the above
Fremantle football boss Peter Bell, Lions CEO Greg Swann respond to respective North Melbourne and Essendon links
Could either make the switch to Victoria?www.zerohanger.com
Fremantle football boss Peter Bell has revealed he would be open to listening to North Melbourne should the Kangaroos have interest in seeing their former club champion return to Arden Street as their next chief executive officer.
Bell has held his role at the Dockers since ending his media career in 2018, helping steer the Dockers under senior coach Justin Longmuir across the past four seasons.
The 46-year-old returned to Fremantle a decade after calling time on his 286-game career, with the Cockburn club now bearing fruit on their football department overhaul to current ybe placed in a deep finals push.
The Roos and now-former chief execute Ben Amarfio recently cut ties, with the club now looking to head in a new direction under mastermind coach Alastair Clarkson.
While murmured interest has risen in recent weeks of a potential move to North Melbourne - the club where Bell won two premierships - the Dockers boss said he is heavily invested in Fremantle, but would take the club's call.
"It's difficult because I'm not trying to be evasive, but I get asked that question a lot," Bell told 3AW on Saturday.
"I don't know if that's North Melbourne people or genuine. Journalists ask me that all the time. So my response to it is that I am so invested in Fremantle and what Fremantle are doing and will continue to do and be invested in Fremantle until the end of the year.
"If someone has been asking you that question. That's the response and that's generally the case.
"If it comes to the end of the year, and I'd be extremely flattered if North Melbourne or any other club were interested in what I was doing, then usually you would listen to it.
"But look, I'm so invested in what Fremantle's doing that I haven't really given it a moment's thought."
Bell played 123 games for the Roos between 1996-2000, winning the Syd Barker Medal in his final year in the blue and white
Ding ding!Is the Bell the well experienced grade of CEO we need presiding over Viney and Clarkson?
Anyone know why Brayshaw is "ruled out"?
Not unexpected I'd have thought when you run a cannabis businessPolite euphemism for "currently off his head".
I can see huge ructions with that combination.Is the Bell the well experienced grade of CEO we need presiding over Viney and Clarkson?
Bell, Clarko, Boomer. Land of the short people
Too stoned.Anyone know why Brayshaw is "ruled out"?
Bell is a very switched on guy but he is not experienced as a CEO. He has a background/qualification in Law IIRC.. anything else apart from his current role at Freo now?
He can't be running that good an operation because he has got a bunch of WA players leaving a WA finals' team. We've managed to keep all of our players and we were wooden spooners!Bell is a very switched on guy but he is not experienced as a CEO. He has a background/qualification in Law IIRC.. anything else apart from his current role at Freo now?
I think you've just answered your own question. She's pushing for women that most people have never heard of.I don't really know any of those names but why is it a beat up?

Didn't Caro report we needed a 'football CEO'?
