List Mgmt. New List Manager

[Opine]

I'm somewhat numbed out about the whole situation and am resigned to us getting a 'make-do' instead of the best.

It will likely be something we just have to fix at a later date. It's unfortunate for us to get to this point, but here we are.....again.

I think it's a simple analysis. If, at the end of this season, the cumulative effect of SOS's replacement, or lack thereof, fails to result in comparable or improved performance in list management, as would otherwise have been reasonably likely if SOS had stayed, the CEO should be replaced.

Will be interesting to see if they do replace SOS, or absorb the role. If it's the later, wondering who has the final say on list management/trading/drafting

I can't remember, but did we pick Menzel knowing he had question marks, regarding his work ethic and stuff like that?

I think the only knock was he was coming back from LARS surgery.

Surely I am not the only person fascinated by Wickzki’s avatar. Murphy is totally photobombing Walsh’s moment.

I love how Sam is pounding the Virgin logo on his jumper, paying tribute to our sponsors.

Ultimate professional...

True, but would prefer him grabbing/pounding the CFC logo

Hippy

We better make a decision soon, as there is a whole lot of opposition supporters waiting.

Adam43 bang on mate, well done

Welcome, however I remain unconvinced.. The dogs success IMO is based on pure luck of father son selections coming through together.. Was this guy behind BoyD who was a disaster and Shache who doesn’t look like it will come off..

No he wasn't.

Austin recruited first-round picks Bailey Smith and Cody Weightman during his time as the Western Bulldogs' recruiting manager, while he also spent three seasons working for the club as an opposition analyst across a successful 15-year career in the AFL industry.

His CV also includes three years as an opposition analyst with Port Adelaide, as well as six years with Richmond as its list management and recruiting officer.

No, Nick was at Richmond at the time of both of those trades.

Adam43 is the new barass

 

[BigFrizz36]

Seems like he has a good track record and I love the Curly connection. All in all it seems to be an excellent appointment.

 

[Michael Jezz]

Good appointment on the basis of the bulldogs list. Bailey Smith is a cracker. Not sure if he recruited Tim English.
I hope he has the management & negotiating skills

 

[FRUMPY]

Who the hell knows if he is a good appointment but we have our man and lets see what he can do in the next few years.

Ill wait for the SOS complainers to still be complaining

Welcome, however I remain unconvinced.. The dogs success IMO is based on pure luck of father son selections coming through together.. Was this guy behind BoyD who was a disaster and Shache who doesn’t look like it will come off..

Father sons Lachie Hunter, Tom Liberatore, Mitch Wallis, Zaine Cordy (Ayce now gone) & Rhylee West.... Hunter is the only one who's top shelf & can stay on the park.

Boyd won them a flag so I think they're pretty happy, and at the start he gave the soupporters some much needed hope after their captain Griffen jumped ship. (Schache… who knows but it's not looking great just yet).


No time for the Bont, Macrae, Dunkley, Naughton, Johanissen, Daniel, Wood, Lipinski, McLean, English, Smith, Richards selections? Or trading in role players to fill needs for decent value like Lloyd, Crozier, Keath, Bruce?

 

[BigFrizz36]

Although lets just hope that Curly doesn't decide to make a comeback. We've had father/sons conflict of interest but son/father?

Boyd was massive in their Premiership.........the ultimate goal

 

[Gointocarlton]

Son of a Carlton great huh? Jobs for the boys? Never LOL.

 

[zeggie]

Austin wasn't involved with Boyd, and regardless the club was in turmoil and they had to get the best deal they could in the circumstances. Winning a GF makes that trade a win regardless of the money spent.
