List Mgmt. Glenn Luff - Has resigned as list manager

[Waussie]

Is this Rawlings or is the Amarfio...


This isn't good for stability and trying to re-sign your best kids.

Luff hasnt

Wait for it!

 

[The Dingrel]

If they did push them out surely the club would allude to that instead of the club looking like a basket case!

Brady certainly didn’t allude to it when interviewed this evening. The complete opposite actually.

Not hard to come out and say we felt the need to make a change if they were in fact pushed. Instead we just look like we’ve got no f$&king idea. That’s why I don’t believe they were pushed. The club would ensure all knew it was our decision. Why the hell would we protect the outgoing recruiters reputation over our own if they were pushed out!

Not necessarily,,,the club is an employer. Yeah its a cut throat business but don't wan't to appear ruthless where others are looking over their shoulder and/or give cause for potential employees to hesitate in joining. Also depends on circumstances....doing so could give rise to potential unlawful dismissal cases. Seen it at several places ive worked, thanks for your service see you later, frog marched out the door, a courier will deliver your personal belongings to your place of residence......no goodbyes, no real explanation, final payment made, no further communication.

That’s right it won’t be about Luff and Finnigan per se but it will be about North being in crisis. They couldn’t care less about those individuals but it’s about the perception of the club being a rabble.

Well let’s prove em wrong by winning a game or two

 

[King Corey]

Ok, I have goss. Rawlings is going to walk within weeks and their problem is Armarfio.

I'm not necessarily saying that this is a bad thing, but some people who really love North Melbourne can't work with him.

OK this is a potential concern. A huge one.

Sonja might need to up the espressos.

 

[glenn2479]

I love the media narrative around ‘terrible timing for the club’. Yeah, 1 week before the mid season draft so all the work has been done there and 6 months out from the National draft. Sounds like the best possible timing if you ask me.

 

[Makeshift Park]

I wish someone else had heard that SEN report on Dalrymple other than that one dogs supporter….

Bro, who will call the players names out! You can't just let anyone do that, what if they pronounce it wrong!

 

[travelli]

Curious, what’s the issue?

He's a CEO. Rattling the established order/cracking under the pressure of failure. Sometimes this is a good thing in an organisation, sometimes it's more about the ego of the individual.

I don't want to say much else because I know Luff's family, but this is the legit reason why these guys have left.

 

[Shermanator]

Never trusted Luff so good riddance and Amarfio is just too smooth for me, so travelli might be onto something..

 

[Devington]

Is there actually a media report though Devington about Dalrymple? I assumed that was just an alt account posting rubbish.

I wish someone else had heard that SEN report on Dalrymple other than that one dogs supporter….

Oh dear.

 

[The Dingrel]

Bro, who will call the players names out! You can't just let anyone do that, what if they pronounce it wrong!

Thats an excellent point......forget auctioning off the indigenous round jerseys,,,,,I'd pay good money to read out the draftees, shake their hand, present em with a jersey and welcome them to big footy.

 

[roospur]

What a nightmare this all is Can we bring back Euge? Make it happen Euge!

 

[ohh_v]

Spare a thought for the players recently drafted now start thinking to themselves: "Wait am I actually so shit that these guys got the sack/left?"

 

[spurs]

Dalrymple is going to take over your recruitment

Ok, I have goss. Rawlings is going to walk within weeks and their problem is Armarfio.

I'm not necessarily saying that this is a bad thing, but some people who really love North Melbourne can't work with him.

Sounds like Cricket Australia all over again

 

[Usayed Givashe]

Club will never come out and say yes we are just getting rid of the soft campaigners. Guess we just need to have faith

You’ve stood up, Adolph.

Led from the front, a real strong presence during the rebuild.

I’m proud of you

 

[travelli]

I don't know why you would say that about Luff, he loves the club. Absolutely loves our entire culture and mission. Really genuine bloke as well.

That doesn't mean he was brilliant at his job, but it is a worry when several guys simultaneously say they can't work for the management.

 

[King Corey]

There is a fair amount of smugness in this thread.

3 people who were driving our rebuild have said they can't work for the club anymore, pointing the finger at management. It's a massive problem.

What if Amarfio is right? Maybe he's zeroed in on them all not being up to it?

 

[The Nostradamus]

He's a CEO. Rattling the established order/cracking under the pressure of failure. Sometimes this is a good thing in an organisation, sometimes it's more about the ego of the individual.

interesting so it’s amarfio they have an issue with not rawlings

Does amarfio have a successful track record, question for anyone

It does happen a lot in all industries, particularly when it is important that you are seen to leave, not be pushed.
I am just speculating, of course.

I'd say if you love the club that much, you don't leave taking swipes at the club knowing full well what it's going to bring.

Luffs left before North was forced to play McGuinness as a KPD. He dodged a bullet because McGuinness was getting over an injury and so they went with Bonar against McKay.

He didn't want egg on his face when McGuinness gets Zac Dawson

'd. The writing was on the wall during pre-season when he was getting questioned about KP depth during the zoom interview.

I think in 3 years time Luff will be considered a genius. I'm noting all you impatient b@stards names.

Ok, I have goss. Rawlings is going to walk within weeks and their problem is Armarfio.

Thanks Glenn,

Don’t let the door hit your arse on the way out.

Ps I loved the Phillips pick!

 

[travelli]

What if Amarfio is right? Maybe he's zeroed in on them all not being up to it?

Absolutely could be true.

Could also be a panicking CEO who does not really know or understand the club, or AFL for that matter, who has no patience and just wants see perceived ongoing success for his next job application.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

Luff lips sink ships.

Yeah sorry mate that sounded a bit insincere, it’s not his personality I can’t trust it’s his recruiting background and his ability to recruit based on numbers. Apologies.

I agree with the Ben A thing because it is his personality.. He’s very smooth to the cameras when there’s not much to report, but unseen when there’s pressing issues.
