Whereabouts ?
I hire and fire daily. No time for slackers.Understandable you sound like you have plenty of experience hiring CEOs.
When do you think is the right time to sack Noddy?Agree and there was little to suggest things were improving - though the roster has slightly.
Don't agree with the timing of it but it had to be done IMO. But I also blame Hartigan as much as Madge.
He failed to build a competitive roster and Madge in turn was ineffective with reshaping the team's culture and enhancing their performance levels.
Whoever keeps employing people that are constantly failing need to be held accountable for their poor contribution too.
Releasing Luciano and Mikaele was also pretty stupid considering there are no replacements.

I would find out who V’Landys mates are. Who you know…I want a CEO who played the game. He would definitely help with attracting winners and passion to boot. Helps that he has business acumen. He was touted to take over as NRL CEO when David Smith left that's how well he is regarded in business.
Petty.I think they all go to Ambush meetings and tell Justin his hair looks great
At the next review silly 🙃When do you think is the right time to sack Noddy?
I didn’t mention a single name. Geo would rarely pull me up on my opinions on our clubs adminPetty.
For the record, one more time for the dummies, Ambush meetings with the club have nothing to do with Tigers operations outside of membership engagement. Justin Pascoe is typically not present as we usually deal with membership and marketing staff, to ensure our proposed events and strategies align with what the club is planning.
There has been one formal meeting this year and Justin Pascoe was not present.
Separately to this, some Ambush members have a semi-regular call with Pascoe to hear club updates and provide feedback on member/fan events.
I do not attend these calls with Pascoe, but our late friend Geo did, and I resent the possible implication that Geo was wasting his time or becoming a club sycophant.
So why didn’t they march him out with Hartigan 9 months ago?That’s 1277 overnights that Madge had. ( Thanks Google).
I think the point made by Tony is that changing the admin may have zero impact on wins and losses, and he asked if you could name someone in admin who could have that change.What a ridiculous argument. How would any of us know what executives might be available? I know for sure there would be plenty who wouldn’t hang around for 7 failed years.
Just because he didn't pull you up doesn't mean he agreed with you.I didn’t mention a single name. Geo would rarely pull me up on my opinions on our clubs admin
I concede that and I come from a position of not believing anyone could be any worse.I think the point made by Tony is that changing the admin may have zero impact on wins and losses, and he asked if you could name someone in admin who could have that change.
If you concede that you have no idea who a Pascoe or Lee replacement might be, then it raises the question exactly what you are asking for. The concept of "anyone but them" is a bit vague. What if Pascoe was replaced by Mark O'Neill or Paul Osborne or Corey Payne or some other embarrassingly failed administrator?
I’m not getting into this out of respect. My opinion and him are unrelated.Just because he didn't pull you up doesn't mean he agreed with you.
Most of the club CEOs are not ex-players? They are all sports / business / finance administrators.I want a CEO who played the game.

Fair enough - but please stop referring to meetings or phone calls about which you know nothing. Above the belt arguments are respected in here.I’m not getting into this out of respect. My opinion and him are unrelated.
I'll give Buckets O'Neill a call then, just hopefully the lady he allegedly groped is no longer an employee of the club.I concede that and I come from a position of not believing anyone could be any worse.
Pascoe is completely ineffective.
How did his conversations with the league go after the Matterson contract saga. That’s right, we lost Aloiai the same way.
Literally anyone would fight harder for this club in my opinion .
Pascoe only laced up his girdle on Friday nights.Most of the club CEOs are not ex-players? They are all sports / business / finance administrators.
They may have laced a boot or two in their heyday but many did not play first-grade.
I won’t mention your meetings etc againFair enough - but please stop referring to meetings or phone calls about which you know nothing. Above the belt arguments are respected in here.
Were you present when he did so? I am surprised you claim to know this.Pascoe only laced up his girdle on Friday nights.
Above the belt heyI'll give Buckets O'Neill a call then, just hopefully the lady he allegedly groped is no longer an employee of the club.
