But Jimmy Bartel might be?!

Saw that about Bartell. What position???

Saw that about Bartell. What position???

I'd assume it'd be either for List Manager (if Leppitsch prefers to keep his role contained to coaching and strategy) or GM (doubtful) as I don't see anything else being open. I wonder if Eddie is push / pulling from behind? TBH Eddie's last great act as President of our club was the recruitment of Graham Wright. Say what you want but he is a good judge of people and is very well connected. I would love to know what he thinks about our current situation and where he thinks we should be looking for our next GM. I would also love to know what he thinks about Ned's current tenure as CEO...

Just watching Eddie and Jimmy podcast on youtube. Near the end when they do they buying or selling segment, Collingwood was raised. Jimmy's answer was ~
“I’m buying. I think Collingwood are going to make some moves in the trade free agency that we are not aware of just yet...”

[BazBoy]

Mmmm !!! Whatever they are planning one would hope we enter a period where we are in the finals every year

Then again...I just read this ~

"Bartel first joined the Giants board late in 2018 and was said to have played a key role in the cub’s list management calls and coaching decisions as well as the restructuring of its football department."

Maybe he is ready to take on the role of GM? I wonder if he is or was ever managed by Kelly or his company?

[BazBoy]

Both us and the Dee’s are interviewing him I believe

[Presti35]

How's Monkey going at North? He followed Clarko over there.

[BazBoy]

Leppa is doing the recruiting and has been in the negotiating mode
He has been involved to this stage with Perryman

See what other ready made’s he can land

[BazBoy]

Is the Jim Bartlet fair dinkum or just media crap

[SLORT]

Apparently we were sniffing around Danny Daly for GM role. He's off the board as he's resigned with the Lions.
