Part of the problem in this society is posts like this that question the appointment just because she’s a female.Left field decision, which isn’t a problem unless the decision is about virtue signalling and not about improving onfield performance.
Especially when footy ops is more about logistics, liaison and organisation, rather than being a "footy" role.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.
Left field?Left field decision, which isn’t a problem unless the decision is about virtue signalling and not about improving onfield performance.
What exactly about her extensive experience working in football makes this left-field? Or is it her gender?Left field decision, which isn’t a problem unless the decision is about virtue signalling and not about improving onfield performance.
The fact that she hasn’t played professional football predominantly. Need some tissues?What exactly about her extensive experience working in football makes this left-field? Or is it her gender?
Yes, generally these positions are filled by ex footballers…so left field.Left field?

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.
I wonder how much energy is consumed with such fake and woke posts that add no value. What a worthless post. DumbPart of the problem in this society is posts like this that question the appointment just because she’s a female.

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.The fact that she hasn’t played professional football predominantly. Need some tissues?
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.Nearly all of the people involved in football admin probably didn't play at the highest level.

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 workshopNearly all of the people involved in football admin probably didn't play at the highest level.

You should have just admitted that you don't know what you're talking about rather than double down on the idiocy.I wonder how much energy is consumed with such fake and woke posts that add no value. What a worthless post. Dumb
The last 2 people to fill the role at Collingwood are not ex footballers.Yes, generally these positions are filled by ex footballers…so left field.
Does your computer beep when you start backing up like this?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.
The only dumb thing in this thread is you using the word "woke." Sing a new tune and stop watching Sky After Dark.I wonder how much energy is consumed with such fake and woke posts that add no value. What a worthless post. Dumb
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.The only dumb thing in this thread is you using the word "woke." Sing a new tune and stop watching Sky After Dark.
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?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.
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 postDoes your computer beep when you start backing up like this?
