Tony Mestrov, new CEO

[Ryan]

Dear Tony,

Please bring in the complete recruitment staff to your office, and ask them to line-up. One by one, they are to move forward and present themselves & explain their lack of results over the past three years. Then, they are to be bound and placed in a Judas Cradle, before you SLOWLY (we don't want this to happen quickly) lower them down to the base of the pyramid.

Kind Regards,

Ryan

What is the reasoning behind Mestrov signing off on all these reserve graders?

When r we signing a big forward to replace Marty/Walker?

Weird thing is , we were talking about Condon a month or two ago. That's when Des, Crusher, Fulton(s) were all working together. They leave , and we instantly sign the.....ummmm....guy.

Yes it's a bit weird, but we need to fill 30 spots, so hopefully it's just depth and some obvious first grade signings are coming

If we have signed someone from the World Cup they likely won’t be announced until after the tournament I’d imagine. Hoping this is the case anyway.

I'm waiting for the hooker that replaces Manase. And at least one experienced first grade forward.

But How do we know Mestrov hasn't done a marvellous job so far? Perhaps even exceeded expectations.

Even the more balanced media keep suggesting there was factions and fractures at Manly long before rainbow gate.

Think back to Schuster's Managers email to the club. There was clearly a bit happening behind the scenes long before Foz went to the Titans. Long before ahhhhhhh day.

Scotty in recruitment clearly had some difference of opinions to DES re youth development and future planning.

If DES either controls everything or nothing.

A decisions been made.

We've backed in the kids like Koula, Weeks and Shoe.

Now let's get that experienced take no prisoners on field leadership to bring it all together.

I know he signs the cheques ... but how much say .. if any, does Mestrov have in recruitment ??

Was Seibold contacted for an opinion ... and said yes, carry on and sign Conlon ... ??

Hadley ripping in to Tony over the Kristie Fulton sacking, "Offered the world while head of the greyhounds, gave an Atlas", thought Hadley was full of praise for Tony while at the greyhounds, he had him on his show lots of times, obviously sticking up for the Fultons

Like night follows day. Expected nothing less from Hadley - Was always going to jump in on this situation.

One of Tony's biggest issues is that people such as Penn surround themselves with yes men as they don't like their directions questioned Hence why Penn and Hasler never got on

Manly's future is in Penn's hands solely now and we will live or die by his actions

Lets hope his actions with the leagues club are not repeated with the football club

 

[Budgie]

I'd love to know why we have gone through numerous CEOs in a relatively short period of time. Particularly when Penn is overseas most of the time. Must have been front office issues who knows?

Very slight point I know, but to be fair, the last CEO went because of his own addictive behaviour.

I'm sure Mr Mestrov knew as soon as he had to sack Ms Fulton that The Dickhead would go after him.
And still he did it because it was what our club required.
Onya Tony!

Honestly don't know how the flog keeps rating. Up yours Ray from me.

There's certainly some delicious irony in there Bozo.

Yes Indeed feathered friend

the mind can come up with some delicious fantasies

There is no limitations to what our incredible minds can come up with

Hadley rates because he is effective in what he does

what annoy the f#ck out of people....

 

[BOZO]

The ratings suggest he entertains more people than he annoys

The moral of the story my feathered friend is ...
We can not please every one
No one can
And we do not need to please every one
as every one can please them selves

 

[Budgie]

"Affective is an adjective that describes something that is related to, arises from, or influenced by feelings, mood and emotions."
Sounds about right.

ummm and that wasn't known around the football circles? Information like that is very very hard to keep secret. Proves what a pathetically poor job Penn did in the background checking before hiring.... Either Penn fought with or didn't check the character so far of 7 CEO's and now 4 coaches. There is a common denominator in all this mess.
