Lloyd is part of the Liddle trinity with Agresta.The old boys school posse that ran SOS out of town and brought office boy Austin in. Rather we have a non Liddle buddy running the footy dept and imo Lloyd was nothing brilliant at Freo so no great loss if he goes. Don't like boys clubs in any business and it's been another mistake that needs rectifying..

Whatever happens, they must sort out the schoolyard antics and start functioning like a professional sporting organization. An organization that has 80k passionate members. Give or take 10k pets.

Keeping together is progress.

What we do know is:
- Our footy dept is being reviewed
Didn't they announced a review of the whole club, but it doesn't seem to be playing out that way!

For me it's a Clayton's Review, they had an objective, they wanted a very specific outcome, and they made sure that is what it delivers!

I'm wondering if this review was any more than just an audition for Geoff Walsh, while at the same time offering some cover for Sayer's preferred list of changes?

For me, for once the club was clear in that it was stated to be a review of the whole footy dept. That is, everyone from Judd down to the boot studder.

Its been denied that Walsh is being courted for any football admin role......however I remain skeptical given how quickly people change their minds in the world of AFL.

It would appear slightly unethical to be employed to review an organisation and thus find that the best way forward is to employ yourself full time...

But thats just me.

Well worth a read, but it's a little depressing tbh.


Abit mischievous by Beveridge IMO.

Bit mischievous in the wordings from the journo - saying the review findings had been presented to the board.  Haven’t the board come out and said the review isn’t finished.   Yeah, they prob should keep Teague updated, but the article makes it sound like they have the results and they are keeping them from Teague

Maybe, but I think Lyon is acting unethically, saying that he has "famous" Carlton people in his corner, and then talking about how Clarkson is the red hot favourite.  And the reason why the club hasn't backed Teague publicly is obvious. It's been a pretty grubby process, and all concerned should hang their heads in shame. There's no honour among thieves or senior coaches, it seems.

Agree Mil, Ill also add that Teagues comments come across as a bit naive if I'm honest. They said they wouldnt be providing running commentry and they havent. So how can he expect them to come out and say things about it? Also, he would have known, being an insider, the review was ongoing and not complete. How could he expect them to go up to him and say "you'll be right mate" when the review wasnt complete. Perhaps its me thats naive.
