O’Rourke said on Friday the club would hire a headhunting form but also look internally for a replacement.
He has already spent time having a series of coffee dates with potential contenders for Gale’s role.

A quartet of ‘Simons’ will all be scrutinised – ex-St Kilda CEO Simon Lethlean, ex-Geelong football boss Simon Lloyd, Richmond executive Simon Matthews and Cats chief financial officer Simon Kelleher.
All have claims for the role, while current Geelong and former AFL executive Marcus King could also be considered.

The AFL’s commercial boss Kylie Rogers was also seen as a potential candidate for Hawthorn’s vacant role last year.
She would like to one day be the AFL’s chief executive and a stint as an AFL club chief executive would give her the football aspect of her resume that would put her in position to succeed Dillon

People are having their say.

Voting unanimously for the candidate with the longest time spent as a CEO of anyone in the field.

Why vote for professional underlings when you could get a boss instead, right?

Cats poach AFL fixture guru for new executive role

AFL administrator Marcus King will head down the highway to join former colleague Steve Hocking at Geelong

Cats poach AFL fixture guru for new executive role​

AFL administrator Marcus King will head down the highway to join former colleague Steve Hocking at Geelong

GEELONG has made a strong off-field signing by poaching the AFL's fixture guru Marcus King to its executive.

AFL.com.au understands the Cats are set to announce they have landed King in a significant role at the club.

King will be chief strategy and growth officer at Geelong, in a wide-ranging role where he will oversee strategy, growth, infrastructure, technology, legal and risk.

One of the rising stars of the industry has been an integral member of the AFL's hierarchy particularly in recent years in piecing together the fixture and working with stakeholders in managing games during the COVID era of more flexible matches.


He has been crucial to the AFL's seasons going ahead in 2020 and 2021 under strict state border controls and health regulations during the pandemic and has been central to the League's floating fixture.

King worked closely with Geelong chief executive Steve Hocking in his time as the AFL's general manager of football before Hocking took on the role as Cats boss last year.

Hocking's role was replaced by long-term AFL executive Andrew Dillon and former North Melbourne coach Brad Scott in a restructured football operations department.

Where is the option for Simon Lethlean? He is a good mate of AFL CEO and he is better than Hardwick at having extra marital activities

Meet Kylie Rogers, the woman behind the AFL's bold (and risky) growth push

The AFL's chief money-maker, Kylie Rogers, wants to take big risks to grow the game, she tells Lunch with the AFR. But amid a female revolution across the league, she's wary of #MeToo overstepping.

www.afr.com

" As we're chatting, we notice her son is taking his own photo, armed with his own camera and a look of deep concentration. It's a scene made all the more adorable because he's wearing a Richmond Tigers footy jumper."

Simon Lloyd recently departed geelong, I’m guessing it’ll be him

[HumanMeatball]

I’ll consider the position

 

[GastevsBeard]

politically it feels like what the club needs to shift perception from rogue pioneers to brown-nosing afl sycophants
