Now if only someone would pull the step out so he would fall flat on his face as he stepped down.

unlike a vast many, i have always liked demetriou as ceo.
if rumour is true, and mclachlan takes the reigns, it will be interesting to hear how he sees the game and where it will head under his stewardship.

Eddie McGuire on Triple M just confirmed that the 10.00 am presser will be where Demetriou announces his resignation. Ed reckons the resignation will be effective at seasons end.

I agree - I wont share the rapture of others. I think he's been a great steward of the game, even if I didn't agree with all decisions.

He'll step down earlier than that to avoid the spot light from the ASADA sanctions.

I concur.
I have no doubt that his replacement will be equally odious, however.

Make that three.
I think the game is in a better spot now, than it was 10-15yrs ago.

Give them time to find a suitable replacement rather than stepping down immediately.
