Tom Browne on Ch 7 news just said he believes Benny Gale has called in external consultants Ernst & Young to seek answers and determine what went wrong this season.

Browne said Benny refused to confirm or deny it. The club's response was [paraphrasing] that internal and external opinions are sought on matters affecting the club.

Are they really going to help us with on-field performance-related matters like coaching, fitness, training standards, football culture, drafting & recruiting etc? Will they sub-contract football people for that?

No thanks.

History proves you have strong tendencies to overrate some players and have fractured relationships with key personnel based on emotion. More of the same if you are asked.

The club needs rational thinkers at this time.

More transparent unaccountability from Gale.

Yeh, pay that mob to work out that you all wanted to keep your jobs under the guise of seeing the plan out.

Problematic for you is, the football world knew you failed years ago.

It's all in the 'scapegoat' brief. Just remember who's paying you lads. Now go find.

If he runs the MCC, he should renegotiate a better deal at all MCG games we play that we get PUNT RD END!

It's so Benny can get a pat on the back from people outside AFL circles

But by reviewing business operations they assess the processes in place for things like internal reviews and how the club goes about them....

So it could have benefits

Correct.  A bunch of accountants reviewing our football operations.  To be seen doing something.  EY reviewing your football operations lol.  An exercise to support the scapegoating and to further justify their decisions.
Does anyone have half an idea on anything?

Maybe they can review how the hell our CEO also got a seat on the board...... :whistle

That was and remains a disgrace.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.
