Absolutely agree Smokey, he will do more at the Dees in 3 months than Schwab did in 10 years  ;D

Jackson set up the Bombers off field to be the financial powerhouse they are today; so no doubting his credentials

Just reckon the headquarters had to be involved in getting him there that's all

For sure.  Probably some sort of shared 'incentive' - Melb to pay a salary and the AFL to quietly top it up to a level that he would want to take on that challenge!!

The HUN is reporting that the Dees are about to announce Peter Jackson (former CEO of the Bombers) as their Interim CEO

Hmmm.... the cynic in me says this has headquarters prints all over it

No way the Dees could entice him on their own

 ;D


True, but he is a good operator, I reckon they could do a lot worse.

Wasn't he the one who sacked Sheedy as well.

Yes he recommended Sheeds not be given a new contract and he was the one that recommended to the board of the day to extend Matty Knights contract and as soon as he 'retired' they (Bombers) sacked Knighta and had to pay him out  ;D

Knights could have a chance at coaching again than. Jackson obviously thinks highly of him.
