A level of tension has emerged between the AFL and one of its clubs over the departure of a long-time club chairman.
Credit:Former AFL boss Andrew Demetriou, who was at that Giants game in August, made an impassioned speech reminding GWS leaders of their importance to the competition and encouraging them to stand up to head office and push for more support. The following week the commission held a brief ceremony in its Docklands boardroom honouring Shepherd before the club’s last home-and-away game against Carlton.
“It’s got to be done in an orderly and correct manner. I’ve made it clear I won’t be seeking an extension, and I’ll be stepping down before the end of the year, but I’m not going to go when we’re still playing.”
