Mega Thread Port Forum General AFL Thread Part 23

Adelaide list boss Justin Reid believes the 27-year-old will see through his current deal and remain at the Crows next season.

"Matt's contracted for 2023. I understand the interest, being a best-and-fairest winner and an All-Australian. He's a quality individual and player for our football club," Reid told AFL.com.au's Trade Exchange.

"At times, he's found himself out of the team this year. We understand the interest, but Matt is a contracted player. We expect Matt to have a big off-season and we'll see him in the Crows colours most likely next year."

Sheedy has been nothing but toxic since getting shoved from the giants


I love it

 

[edgie]

There's also that guy who was our assistant coach in 2004. Not heard of him for a while.

Brendan Lade done caretaker duties too does that count?

And it didn't take long to make him and in turn us look petty and wrong.

Ah big deal. They and their media stooges are the petty ones which has been proven time and time again with their sniping and making up of bullshit about our club. Pity we didn’t have a few more snipes at the pricks.

He gets verbal diarrhea attacks from time to time remember the "professional jealousy" comment.

Imagine thinking anyone even the Crows are jealous of a club that's done fukc all for nearly two decades.

Hindsight has really proven that CD was just jerking himself with those comments.

Him and Luke hodge look to have been doing a bit of comedy about white privilege and the privileges that come with being in sport.

Classic Australia

That is ageing well for Davies. Hopefully he's head-hunted for Brad Scott's role at the AFL. Coming up to his 8th year. 7 too long.

Yep, it's up there with Trigg's comment about us being an embarrassment to SA. These comments always bite back hard.

Lol you can almost pinpoint that professional jealousy comment as the beginning of our demise.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

And it didn't take long to make him and in turn us look petty and wrong.

I mean the second part is definitely right.

End of the day we're playing in the AFL and whatever real club they support is stuck in the SNAFL so they are absolutely jealous.

 

[Grave Danger]

The Red and The Blue trifecta completed in the feeder leagues today - West Perth beat Claremont in the WAFL grand final after Casey (Melbourne's ressies) won the 'VFL' and N0rd the SNAFL.

 

[Portology]

There's also that guy who was our assistant coach in 2004. Not heard of him for a while.

He left for browner pastures even before the prelim.

So Brad Scott spent 3 years at the AFL.

The Executive GM of Football Operations is Andrew Dillon who also is Executive GM of Legal and Integrity and is the AFL's internal general legal counsel. He picked up the extra duties when Steven Hocking left and went back to Geelong in August 2021. The AFL restructured Football Operations after Hocking left. Hocking was on the Executive Committee.

Inside the Footy Operations remit for Andrew Dillion is the TPP Audit, Soft Cap & List Management division that used to be headed up for nearly 20 years by Ken Wood, who had a very high profile, and he left at the end of 2020. The new Manager is the little known and heard of Jennifer Macmillian.

Her departmental colleague was Brad Scott the general manager of football since September 2021 after being head of AFL Victoria for 18 months working at HQ.

Now you would think that TPP and Soft Cap stuff would be sensitive and restricted info, but work colleagues talk about stuff and who knows who in a department attends meetings where sensitive stuff is discussed outside their direct area of work.

Brad Scott would have a decent overall picture of every clubs TPP and Soft Cap position. That knowledge is powerful. That's a decent advantage he has taken to Essendon.


AFL Executive Committee is;

The AFL Administration - AFL.com.au

View current members of the AFL Commission, Executive and other councils/committees

www.afl.com.au

Gillon McLachlan (CEO),
Rob Auld (Game Development),
Travis Auld (Finance, Clubs and Broadcasting + AFL's CFO)
Andrew Dillon (Football Operations + Legal and Integrity + AFL's General Legal Counsel) - probably why he is favoured to replace Gil
Sarah Fair (People - ie HR boss)
Tanya Hosch (Inclusion and Social Policy)
Walter Lee (Strategy - Technology and Data)
Kylie Rogers (Commercial and Customer)
Brian Walsh (Corporate Affairs, Government and Communications)

So the guy running the AFL competition and the the women running the AFLW competition, Nicole Livingstone, ie the on field stuff, aren't part of the AFL executive anymore like Andrew Demetriou, Adrian Anderson, Mark Evans and Stephen Hocking were over the last 20 odd years.

It tells you a fair bit where the AFL is headed and what it sees as its priorities.

Will be interesting to see who replaces Scott. Barrett and SoS were ribbing David Noble about him being the ideal candidate on Trade Radio yesterday, but he's probably a good chance with his breadth of experience. He'd just have to hope no awkward stories come out about how he treated players at N0rf...


...meanwhile, it's this champ's time in the sun at the moment - he's Ken Wood's replacement:

He hasn't replaced Ken Wood's TPP Audit and Soft Cap work, but has taken over the List Management division.

Jennifer Macmillian has the TPP Audit and Soft Cap roles according to her LinkedIn page. From that page it said she worked 10 years at the NFL in New York and last 6.6 years was the Director of Labor Finance.

From that article you linked it says - "Guy will oversee the list management space in terms of new rules relating to trade and free agency periods and the national and mid-season drafts and will beef up the area as the League continues to add to the player movement schedule."

Kenny boy probably retired as the role got to big after 20 years. He retired December 2020 and Guy took over the List management chunk of the role in April 2022.

Yeah - that really would be taking the P if they'd put him in charge of overseeing the TPP audit, but still eyebrow raising given his part in the Collingwood fire sale disaster.

I wonder if WSV will use the same rigour as their SA counterparts...
