Why would Eddie take the job?

Collingwood run the AFL so it would be a demotion

Hahaha, he called it a demotion yesterday when asked about it.

QuoteMcGuire laughed off the inevitable question about his interest in the role.

"Why would I take a demotion from being president of Collingwood?," he said.

Eddie saying he doesn't want to be the AFL CEO is like Kevin Rudd saying he doesn't want to be PM.

Eddie was Channel 9 boss for a while, and stepped down cos he didn't want it anymore. Reckon this is similar.

Gil McLachlan set to be announced as the new CEO.

Gillon McLachlan officially announced as the CEO as of June 5th. I think he's a good man for the job :)

AFL should just bring Demetriou back just for Brownlow night.
