Gary March to step down as Prez at the end of this season (Age)

[WilliamPowell]

I remain comfortable with my opinion of Casey's legacy to our club and where the real blame for the ills of his tenure lies but I acknowledge your view and place in and around it all.

Look I have never been a big fan of the Casey Presidency but he did do some good things for the club didnt he put in avery decent amount of money to the Jack Dyer Fund and then the development of a new office wing and pool for the players?

Casey is much maligned.
I met him on several occasions. He did things he genuinely felt were the best for the club.  I know everyone cans Wallace now, but it was a coup at the time getting him as he was thought to be the best game day coach going around.  He was just poo at developing youngsters (which he admitted to) and that is what was needed. At the time a recruiting department was under budgeted and it showed. No developmental coaches. Casey didn't create this he inherited this.

As has been mentioned he is leaving the place in a much better shape than what he found it and ultimately while he may have erred in his previous capacity at the club as well as this one may I add it's the final result that counts and for that he gets a pass for me considering we are no longer in debt and most importantly under his tenure the single most important person who can resurrect the club arrived in Benny Gale leading to a different more clinical and professional approach which leaves us with our best chance in thirty odd years to equate this into on field success.

With whose money? His own, or was it some of the $40 million that he owed to creditors at the time?

Is Gary taking the Hummer brand with him ?

I'll never forget how he ignored Dave Cuzens at a post match in Perth.

Do you you mean Hummel? The former company he owned held the rights to Hummel

And they haven't been a sponsor (via CSI/BSI) of the Tigers for over 6 years

Who owed creditors $40mil? You've lost me March or Casey?
