Williams is coming to the club very cheaply. Great to see the man has a heart

overloaded, do you think it's a position on the board or the CEO role?

I can't work out if it's three or four of these statements that are wrong.

Norwood fans still pretending they are fully aware whats going on and everyone else doesn't. When the above is announced Ill give it 24 hours until they claim "we knew all along and was just trying to put you off". No wonder Kt took 3 seconds to way up whether to leave Norwood and join an AFL CLUB.

Maybe he got weigh behind in his work.

Norwood and their CEO part company after 5 weeks due to irreconcilable differences.

Lets just hope Rawlings leaves this job in better circumstances than his last.

Nice pic Booney, LOL.

Seriously though - what would be rather - appoint someone, realise you've made a mistake (early), and fix it? Or grin and bear it for a 3 year contract?

We've hardly had a revolving door of CEOs at Norwood. I don't know why people want to go on and on and on and on and on about Bill Leane. Probably because there's not much else to talk about at this time of year.

Booney's missing the point, it's Port people who need to be careful about throwing stones over the recently departed CEOs.

Thankfully Bill didn't stay long enough to overspend on pizzas.

How so? Edwards left to return to his North Adelaide home and Rawlings found himself in a position that he is way over qualified for.

I would expect the Magpie arm to not really require a CEO and perhaps just run with a GM in the One Club structure.

The appoinment to any "CEO" position would be one that carries alot of resposibility and would be quite demanding, Rawlings was left with not quite a CEO role to play as such and for his career development decided to move on.. I guess he could have filled up his day with time on PowerfromthePort though. ;)

I dont believe either of our recently departed CEO's left because he lost a battle with the coach....or other board members.

Because its laughable...
7 Feb 2012 - Chairman confirms everything was "fine" at the club and CEO had his full support
16 Feb 2012 - CEO is stood down
17 Feb 2012 - CEO is sacked
