Not in regard to the camp or other major dramas, that would be at board/CEO level.
Media manager would be more run of the mill stuff and organising players for interviews, etc

Absolutely the media manager would be involved, they'd be entrusted to make sure all parties are reading from the same script from the players to the coaches and the board. It's literally in their job title.

They don't have anyone labelled a media manager as such, I assumed he might be asking about the media coordinator.

Ian Shuttleworth is General Manager - Media and Communications.

He would only be in advisory role.....if the board/ceo decided to go in a different direction the head of media is not stopping that. He would just be the expert on the what would be the best way to handle.

He’s clearly failed then.
Clusterf**k!

I agree the media manager would have to be involved, particularly with how everyone will spin the message

Pure definition of "don't shoot the messenger"
He's a mouth piece, not a decision maker.

The executive would make the decisions but he would absolutely be involved from that point, discussing how they would like that message conveyed.

My wife works in Communications...their job is how to best communicate the message from the executive, not what the message is.

Exactly

Nothing becomes more important than - selling the story

Communicate it truthfully one would hope!
Not sure that’s the case here

So as the AFC have never told us, while they would have agreed as a club, who do you think initially thought of engaging CM for the camp? Must have started with an individual, Burton?

I thought it was Pyke

Who was sacked/moved on/"resigned"? Pyke, Burton, Fagan.
Probably answers the question.

Well the communication person wouldn't actually know what the truth is would they as they most likely weren't on the camp.....they weren't interviewing players about the camp. They would have been fed whatever the board/ceo whoever in their hierarchy they report to told them

Failure is an orphan, so no one has actually put their hand up publicly at least and said, yep I wanted to take on these weirdos from CM.
Pyke might get another coaching job. I doubt Fagan will ever be seen again in AFL land.

does anyone know where I can read Sam McClures article that got him sued by CM?

Not sure what the communication manager has to do with any of this
