I read the members email carefully, though it was a waste of time: we could all smell this one coming from a long way away. Oganisation man from the big end of town, appointed by a committee of organisation men from a similar background. I love the description of his value to the Club ! It makes him sound like X Mark II, but “bigger and better”.

This dude is a good hiring in my view.
Some seriously exceptional experience that will help move the club forward. He’s run some very complex organisations, and what from I’ve heard and read is a good leader.
And hopefully won’t be seduced by Tom Browne to leak everything all day to him.

Now that would be a scandal
they call me wimms former colleague
Point is they are all part of it.
Essendons recent history with honesty and integrity and general sneakiness ain’t great, so it’s a bit of an interesting one.
Seriously, the clubs trying to show its looking to focus away from commercial stuff and back to footy and they hire someone from a commercial stuff background.
Who’s a kiwi?
Then tells us he’s a life long Essendon supporter?
They still think we’re not paying attention.

how do you feel about a 50 year extension to marvel?
born in Melbourne so its quite possible.
I agree. I am a little worried that this dude was part of the process. To my mind it casts a small shadow on the integrity of the process.
Hopefully my fears will be allayed and Andrew will soon be boasting about the clubs finals success under his leadership.
