Chris Grant needs to go.
Agree on that point - Hunter needs to add versatility to his game and be able to play an inside role, last year he was well down on his output and match influence
I’m happy for him to have a role in the club but really feel he is too inexperienced to have the one he is inChris Grant needs to go.
I like the structure we have set up in terms of Power’s role being in charge of everything to do with the list - it’s similar to a GM of a US sports team and it means the buck stops with them.Not sure if serious.
Shooting Bambi.
I have had questions since the Griffen and McCartney fiascos of his capabilities to be involved. Instead the club promoted him - let us hope Gordon is not being a fan boy.
The loss of Dalrymple and the recruitment of Power (even Power with a mere four yrs experience has more experiemce than Grant in full time footy admin.) Let that sink in.
Grant is a massive concern. As is Power. Bains' claim to fame is overseeing another failed rebuild at St Kilda and is a green CEO.
Real concerns with the experience at our club.
Wasn't it Chris Grant who did the Schache deal?
Yep. He gave McCartney the green light to push the button on it, despite beveridge and dalrymple not wanting to take him.

That sounds like a happy little footy department. Wonder if then Dal thought it was time to look around?
Imagine you're told you have $1M to buy your workmates the best set of tools to help them do their job. You spend all year researching the best bargains and tools; then at the last minute your co-manager wants to spend $950k on something potentially broken that your workmates have told you they don't even want. When you and your workmates go to the boss for support, the boss supports your co manager and wants to waste the budget on your co manager's s**t idea that also wastes more than a year of you and your team's researching work...
I'd start looking around the next day...
McCartney shouldn’t have been anywhere near trade week, in light of how quickly his bags were packed after it.
When he was marginal 22 on our list I chatted with him a couple of times. Very impressed with decency and maturity back thenI like the structure we have set up in terms of Power’s role being in charge of everything to do with the list - it’s similar to a GM of a US sports team and it means the buck stops with them.
But like you I share concerns at Powers inexperience. And when you consider Grant and Austin and so inexperienced to, That concern only increases.
Hope Power is a gun but we won’t know for a few years
Damo is reporting that Beveridge is the only one who wanted Schache.Yep. He gave McCartney the green light to push the button on it, despite beveridge and dalrymple not wanting to take him.
This is a time I hope Damo is correct as it is Beverages role to develop the player and if he saw something in him this is a bigger plus than McCartney being the one who wanted himDamo is reporting that Beveridge is the only one who wanted Schache.

He'd been sidelined by trade week. Grant was already running the show by then.
