More to do with internal operations than the list I imagine.

Marcus Wagner was our last one that did this role I think.

I used my friend google and found this... Probably everything apart from the list management stuff.

Director Of Football Operations Job Duties​

Left field decision, which isn’t a problem unless the decision is about virtue signalling and not about improving onfield performance.

Part of the problem in this society is posts like this that question the appointment just because she’s a female.

It couldn’t possibly be accepted on face value as a good appointment based on merit.

Especially when footy ops is more about logistics, liaison and organisation, rather than being a "footy" role.

Left field?

Former Dees, Hawks media boss Clare Pettyfor named Collingwood’s AFL head of football

Former Dees, Hawks media boss named Collingwood’s head of football

www.foxsports.com.au

10 years in the AFL industry
six years at Hawthorn
before a move to the Demons in 2021.
graduated the AFL industry’s Next Gen - Female Executive Leadership program in 2019.

Sounds qualified to me?

She will "report to Wright" whom she would have known from her Hawthorn days and therefore I assume will have a good working relationship.

What exactly about her extensive experience working in football makes this left-field? Or is it her gender?

The fact that she hasn’t played professional football predominantly. Need some tissues?

Yes, generally these positions are filled by ex footballers…so left field.

I wonder how much energy is consumed with such fake and woke posts that add no value. What a worthless post. Dumb

Nearly all of the people involved in football admin probably didn't play at the highest level. Id be more concerned if the entire off field staff were all ex players to be honest.

Agree. Nothing in my OP indicated that I was not in favour. Too many sensitive people these days interpreting things in their own conceited ways.

Off field is left field, on field is left alone and left and right aren't speaking so moving forward at the end of the day it's just another day in a strategic workshop

You should have just admitted that you don't know what you're talking about rather than double down on the idiocy.

See how many more posts that you can fit the words "woke" and "virtue signalling" in.

Says everything anyone needs to know.

You're so ignorant that you don't even understand what the role is.

The last 2 people to fill the role at Collingwood are not ex footballers.

They are male though so I guess that makes it ok.

Does your computer beep when you start backing up like this?

The only dumb thing in this thread is you using the word "woke." Sing a new tune and stop watching Sky After Dark.

How so, the responses to my post are typical of woke morons without an ability to comprehend for themselves. Just jumping to conclusions seeking to shut people down. Seems like you are also lacking agency.

Has anyone checked her Twitter history yet?

Wind it back to my original post, and explain to me what gave you the right to attack and try to offend me ? What gives you the right to do that? Who do you think you are?

The only logical explanation is as I described that you are blinded by your wokeness and that your IQ as close to zero as you can get.

You sought confrontation, so I gave you exactly what you wanted. Nothing in my OP gave you grounds for your statement. And even if it did you have no right to offend people.

This is actually funny. I give you credit for that, piling on is weak however and being in the wrong side of an argument is just stupid. So objectively you get a D- for your post
