I said, What happened? And you had a big smile on your face, and I thought, What's going on here? And then we leave, and then about an hour and a half, two hours later, Essidon break the news that John Lommeyer is heading to the Estidon Football Club as a general manager of performance, a senior leadership position, a newly created role for John Longmeyer to head back to Melbourne and go to the bombers.

On your emotions and how you feel about your football club going into an offseason.
Liam Pickering 2:36
I can ask you though, Piggers. The first question I have for you, the first question that I thought of when I seen this news was Did North Melbourne somewhat of a similar role?
Cam Luke 2:46
No, they didn't. Um we only spoke to North uh John spoke to North and I did a couple of times uh just about the senior role, but not not this particular role. It w it was orchestrated by the bombers, so
Liam Pickering 2:57
So in that
Cam Luke 2:58
John's relationship with with John No doubt.
Liam Pickering 3:00
No no doubt. So has it just bubbled along for a week or two and has it been one that popped up when there was a mini conversation about a possible throw your head hat into the ring for the coach? Like how did it all play out? Is it quick or has it been a long process?
Cam Luke 3:14
It's been reasonably quick. Yeah, last couple of weeks. It's uh I think initially the conversation, I think Spike might have had it with Horse, about, you know, he needs some help. Like he's a young coach. They're trying to get their panel, their coaching panel and their and their football department, you know, in a really good shape. Uh and then it was initial conversation there, then it was CEO Tim Roberts, who's done a great job. Who contacted John and then Horse and I were speaking and Yeah. It it w it went around to the stage where it's sort of over the weekend it was Like yeah, I reckon this is starting to look like it's a pretty good role. 'Cause it's a split role. It's not the footy manager's role.
Cam Luke 3:49
No, it's not.
