Dillon was in meetings Monday with McLachlan in Sydney, where both had dinner with GWS. You wouldn’t call it an intervention but, concerned over crowds and a lack of penetration into Western Sydney, AFL executives including commercial boss Kylie Rogers are heavily involved in GWS. There is also some club concern the AFL has now committed $21m fixed and variable funding for 10 years to Tasmania. Clubs were told it would be $17 million in projections delivered as recently as September.
It’s also easy to understand why the process has been slow; the new CEO should choose the AFL football boss, and the structure of the football department.For example, if Goyder put Brendon Gale or Tom Harley under Dillon, that person could run football.via Getty Images
