The caller is Blakey doing a range of Nationality based ''talk back'' style phone ins

Its cringe at best
Is it ?? Doesn't sound like Blakey at all, and he's not connected to Triple M these days.

I mean it's not funny but the fact they have to apologise for this stuff is ridiculous. He's not Jeremy Cordeux

At what stage does Olsen say enough is enough and asks Roo for his resignation.

Having a board member involved in this sort of behaviour is surely a bad look for the club.


There are reasons Roo‘s time on the board is up, none of them are contained in your post.

Having Roo at the wheel of our club is stupidity at its finest. Then the club not removing him because he is a past champion is plain weak. Then we have to pay to listen to this fool commentate our games with his stupid laugh. Get him out of our club and also off our games on Fox thanks. While your at it fox don't have Dwayne Russell anywhere near our games either. Can't stand him.

Nigel Smart gave the club a fair whack on Cornesys conversation thing.

I agree with much of what he said..... But it came from him so I'm conflicted

What did he say?

We have given him a cushy unaccountable well paid job for more than a decade.
 
That's pretty much what he said, along with wrong people in the he wrong places.
He was part of the problem... yet did nothing but add to the problem.

He didn't mind when those wrong people (wrongly) promoted him though.

Useless prick.

He was on the gravy train and his business unit is totally worthless and he cashed in at big $ for a long time. **** him.
 
Interesting chat with ol Nige.

he’s still as confident in his own views as ever, but is also just as introspective

not sure how thick you’d have to be to think he wasn’t an intelligent bloke.

he’s probably a bit too candid for his own good, and wouldn’t be easy to manage. I’d expect plenty didn’t understand what he was actually getting at in that interview.

he did however explain pretty clearly what his role was, and the source of friction with Fagan.

he couldn’t have been clearer that he thought Fagan was an idiot, and the source of many problems. Burton by implication, and that he thought he’d run his course at the club.

Esports was improving its financial position, and at last count had narrowed its annual losses to about $100,000 - so much for the lying 🤥 space cadet claiming it didn’t lose money.

seemed as perplexed as anyone about our list management, and couldn’t understand why some long term contracts were handed out. But that he didn’t have any contact with the footy side of things and was increasingly isolated - that happens when he was hired to drive off field revenue and you get a questionable CEO who knows nothing about footy appointed, and therefore starts to encroach on your territory because he knows nothing else.

Interesting to see his role was only created when Trigg was suspended and Chapman appointed himself temporary CEO.

lastly was unambiguous in that he thought the problem with the club in recent years, and that there had been big problems, was that there were wrong people in wrong seats. Also that were he chairman he would have gotten rid of the same people that the review and Olsen had.

a really good listen

Thanks, put it on as I went to bed last night and fell asleep not long after (not a reflection on the interview)
 
This segment is just embarressing and not even slightly funny. Do people actually tune in to listen to Roo for 3 hours with his scratchy voice and no sense of humour?
