Have we got any details on him , I have no idea on his past just that he is from the Saints.. Good or bad decision ?

Re: Ameet Baines new CEO
The last time we stole someone from the Saints for an off field role worked out ok...
I'm a big fan of what Bains has done at the Saints. I was hoping we'd sound him out to replace JMac actually.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

He seems very switched on to me. Hopefully he's got some players in his pocket to follow him next trade period.

Re: Ameet Baines new CEO
Great administrator with a law and finance background and will be an asset corporately and also from a footy department perspective.
To me it's a big jump for him but I think we should be confident he will do well. Bendigo boys always do

Re: Ameet Baines new CEO
Although I don't follow much of what Saints do he seems very switched on whenever I've heard him. That cash in move to get a 2017 first round pick from Hawks last year when they were trying to get O'Meara was a beauty.

I was so envious that the Saints conjured that deal out of thin air. It was a great example of creativity I've been waiting to see from our list management team.
I'm excited by this appointment.

At this rate the whitten oval might start its own law firm, why not since PG has been back we have had a VFL team an AFLW team and a VFLW team about to start, why stop at football,?
I'm waiting for the netball team as well.

Re: Ameet Baines new CEO
Have always been impressed by Bains. He's steadily risen through the ranks at the Saints, and always sounds very insightful and switched on when interviewed.
For a non-business man, what are the key differences between a COO and CEO role?

CEO is responsible for the overall running of the organisation whereas the COO looks after operational matters. So COO for example would not have finance as a responsability

This article describes his rather eclectic responsibilities at St Kilda:
Bains’ has an all-encompassing role at St Kilda that combines list management, player contracts, major projects, strategy, media and legal issues. He is second-in-charge to former AFLPA CEO Matt Finnis, who replaced Michael Nettlefold at the helm in Seaford three years ago.

The COO runs the business, making best use of the resources allocated to achieve business objectives. The CEO determines overall strategy and direction - appointing and managing the COO, assigning them the resources they have to work with and the objectives they must achieve
A CEO would decide to open a new branch or create a women's team, a COO would make it successful. CEO's would spend more time at high-level meetings e.g. with the AFL, Etihad, sponsors, Ballarat/Cairns looking at opportunities. COO's operate the business as it currently stands

Very highly rated - the AFL were keen to bring him on with them in some capacity.
This looks great on paper.
