Pert only cares about revenue.That sounds better, apparently the same happened with Jackson at Essendon and he's been great at Melbourne

Improvement on field has come since he left, is that a coincidence?
Can someone please provide a lowdown of how Pert is regarded? He appeared to be rated highly for a long time but grew stale in the Pies role. Improvement on field has come since he left, is that a coincidence?
Finally! Our boys can go back to smashing pills on the weekend without this guy getting all up in their face.
This has been the best week. May it never end.I literally laughed at my computer!
Even Caro doesn’t have that bad tasteIt is going to be a long time before I get the image conjured up by your first sentence out of my head....
I don't think anyone will necessarily truly know what's fact and what's fiction, but there are some theories on Pert.
It was rumoured that he leaked the drug story to Slobbo.
I believe he was behind Star Athletic which we left Adidas for, before the company went to poo?
I'm sure there are others. I would also say the club was in a much better position when he left than when he got here.
But let's just say he left (as part of?) us needing to do comprehensive review of our operations... surely that's telling?

Hahahaha. Dawes/Lumumba/Kennedy and now Pert.
Enjoy Dees.
Terrible person.
Took advantage of his position at pies. Especially with his Noosa holiday house.
Told staff they needed a break. Here stay at my place.
Meanwhile invoiced the club for usage.
Oh well, he got away with it for so long, so well done
Good luck demons. (Does he have a Mt Buller rental?)
Pert said:“I sat down with Ed last week and resigned as the CEO of the Collingwood Football Club,” he said.
“It was a decision that was made after quite a period of time thinking about the club was at and I think we’ve been transparent about the fact we’ve engaged a process of redefining what the Collingwood Football Club is going to be in the future .
“I see that as the responsible thing for me to do.”
“I gave Ed the clear reasons why I think the timing is really good. The timing is good for the club. But also the timing is right for me,” Pert said.
“I’ve been doing the role for 10 years. It’s a big year. In the 10 years it’s gotten literally twice as big.
“It was in the interests of my family to say 10 years is enough and it’s time for someone to take the new vision…and drive things forward.
“There has been a lot of success as highlighted by the premiership…but they’ve also been some challenging times and some fires we’ve had to put out along the way. But I’m certainly proud of the 10 years.”
“I can guarantee I’m not thinking of any roles or entering into conversations (for jobs at AFL),”
Walsh said:"But it’s the right time personally and professionally for an extended break. Simply, I thank Collingwood for the opportunity.”
Malthouse said:"The club has been fantastic about it, don't get me wrong about this, and from day one Eddie has indicated that he would like it to work," he said.
"I think along the line it all sounded good, but reality-wise, as Ed said, he would like to think Nathan will be a 10-year coach or more.
"So I think that in fairness to everyone at the football club, I think they need a fresh start and I can't give them a fresh start from my position in that role.
"It would be selfish to stay on in the role ... I just don't see any point."
McGuire said:McGuire said he had known "for a while" that Malthouse would leave as soon as this season ended.
"We've had this conversation for a long time, it became clear to Mick that he needed a break," he said.
"It underlines what we did two years ago - Mick is finished, he's hit the wall mentally, emotionally ... he gave everything, there's no more, and the whole idea was that Mick would hit the finish line flat out.
"It would have been nice for him to stay on in the position, but I've known for a fair while that he was oscillating.
"The whole idea of why there was never anything in concrete ... is because it was very emotional, the whole thing."

This is the only way I could express how I feel.
