Guess these kind of deals only become problematic when it is Geelong doing itlol, the Lions have - or have had, I’m not sure if it still exists, their own coaches sponsor arrangement with Youi which you can bet your bottom dollar would have some nice perks and Fagan himself works for several motivational speaking groups (Scott works for one as well) which would all be written into their coaching terms as a way for them to earn extra money while they work.
But yeah this is why we keep making finals
Very clear from that article that it's just a sponsorship arrangement. Not a BS role setup for him within their company.Guess these kind of deals only become problematic when it is Geelong doing it
Youi signs on as Official Coaches Partner
Award winning insurer, Youi, is on board as the official coaches’ partner of the Brisbane Lions, adding even further Queensland energy to the club.www.lions.com.au

What's Fagan's role at Youi? Article only mentions that they're now sponsors of the coaches and in exchange for their money they get their logo on their apparel and coaches boxes.You don’t realise they’re essentially exactly the same thing? A company paying someone - or persons plural - to be an ambassador or billboard for their company via a sponsorship or in one case, a token role?
A level of concerning? What does that mean?I'm sensing a level of concerning in the tone of these Geelong supporter's posts.
I think we're onto something here. We need to follow the money.

Took a long time for Lance Armstrong to be found out!Geelong, based on the evidence, don't rort the system. They use the system.
Deliberate tanking is rorting the system. Geelong don't play to lose.
Undeclared payments is rorting the system. Geelong manage their cap.
Drug programs is rorting the system. Geelong have not been found at any stage to have used PEDs.

Picking up spelling and grammatical errors isn't going to save Geelong from the reckoning

Quick Google image search shows Chris Scott already has the Morris logo on his club attire. Same as Fagan. Both repping a club sponsor as part of their senior coaching role at their clubs. Both already ambassadors for those sponsors by your own definition.If he’s sporting anything that shows their logo he’s an ambassador for them.
Having a formalised or informal role is the same thing: you’re promoting the people throwing money at you or your club. I bet Scott doesn’t lift a finger doing whatever he’s supposed to be doing, he’s getting paid to essentially advertise the company.

This new "Chief of Leadership and Performance" role he's been given is on top of that. And I haven't seen anything to suggest that it's only for show. The opposite in fact, with quotes from this 7news article suggesting it is an actual role with responsibilities where he will be making contributions - even if he'll still be primarily the senior coach of Geelong for at least the remainder of his current contract.
Given the quote in the image it's surprising that he'd take on an additional role - C-suite no less! - given the stressful existence of being coach.
Dank and Robinson were completely above board and transparent during their years at Geelong. The incredible list wide bulk up over the pre-season in 2007 was due to eating veggies and doing weights.Geelong, based on the evidence, don't rort the system. They use the system.

Bring it on dude. A chance some of you might learn something about how a capable club goes about it.Picking up spelling and grammatical errors isn't going to save Geelong from the reckoning
