He has butchered Carlton's list yet somehow manages to keep his job. How does he escape scrutiny? Is it simply just because he was a club legend as a player?

Horrible recruitment.
Great you picked Walsh. So did the Herald Sun draft expert.
How many good trades, diamonds in the rough does he find?
The whole salary dump is honestly so laughable.
It’s clear his list management decisions are not based around performing this season. He’s trying to replicate previous premiership sides. Richmond aced the 2006-2009 drafts (08 a bit of a bust), particularly the first and second rounds, and are only just reaping the rewards now.
The plan was to have as much talent in the same age profile ready to compete in 6-8 seasons, and right now they’re all 18-22 and it’s not happening.
Talent identification is a seperate issue, not isolated to SOS. Keen to see how he supplements the kids as that’s where a lot of teams have broken down in the past. Hopefully not too late.

Problem is Silvagni is Carlton royaltySOS seems to be regarded as a potential saviour of the Blues as a future senior coach. I don't quite get why (and I am a lifetime Blues fan who used to wear number 1 on my back). I know is highly rated as a backline assistant coach. But if his analysis on Channel 10 is anything to go by, he doesn't have it tactically.
What am I missing?

This has aged wellGo and watch the draft day video from last year to see him in action. I'm not even talking about the trade per se. More just how they went about it. In particular SOS. Didn't look in control at all.
No way they trade that pick if they thought it was going to be pick 1. It’s about not knowing where their club was still at while everyone else still had them in the bottom couple of teams. You don’t trade pick 1 for pick 19 and pick 8-12.Stocker + senior player with first round pick for pick one (another young mid which Adelaide probably need)
I am happy with the decision and season not over.

Even with the bluest of glasses this is a poor list. Media likes to pump it up but they are wrong.
Go through the list and rate them from Cripps down, it's surprising how quickly any type of quality evaporates and a number of the players towards the top are about to retire as well. Everey single kid on this list would need to exceed expectations for Carlton to make progress but a heap of them will end up being duds.
Massive list build failure, gave up some significant picks (some Blues fans like to peddle the myth they got them for almost nothing) for GWS recycled's and none of them are more than just average players, most of course have gone.
