Oops, maybe a $2 Million fine for "bringing the game into disrepute"?

Last night, I have accepted the resignation of GM Football, Simon Lethlean and GM Commercial, Richard Simkiss.

This has occurred following issues that have fully come to light over the past few days.

They were quite separate matters, but have caused distress and concern to a number of people.

Yep, try and drown it out, they always find something else to deflect. Sarah (Liz) does it well.

So predictable isn’t it

Exactly. Surprised it didn’t get announced in time for the Footy Show like they do with all big AFL news.
Promoted Lethlean in March of this year too, AND he was in charge of the AFLW competition!
What a disgrace!

Oh the irony of bad governance

Big consequence for not keeping it their pants. Must be more to the story.

Presumably as the man in charge, Gil will accept full personal responsibility and resign. And if he doesn’t we’ll see unending editorials saying his position is untenable.

Right?

Promote Paul Hamilton to the position.

Imagine the field day SWSNBN will have on this one unless Gill feeds her some bullshit saga related story to make it disappear.
