Carlton chief executive Steven Trigg has quit.

Blues president Mark LoGiudice told The Herald Sun the decision was “not easy” but ended amicably.

3AW Football’s Mick Warner told Tom Elliott he was forced to resign.

“He’s been pushed out,” Warner explained.

Disgraced former AFL executive Simon Lethlean has been touted as a possible replacement.

“They are adamant he is not going to jump straight into the chair,” Warner said.
