Liddle must be the author of the report based on it's content!
He oversaw the report.


The negative directed at him somehow made its way to the shredder after completion, but before being delivered to the board.

Have we learned nothing?

I guess Lyon will at least be in no doubt as to the level of expectation.

I recall of the Apple senior executives back in the early days of the company, said something like this about Steve Jobs :"Jobs could see that horizon out there, a thousand miles out. But he could never see the details of each little mile that had to be covered to get there........................"

It's all very well to make bold statements and have grand ambitions, but if you live in loopyland you'll keep being disappointed.

Ross Lyon!

BigH will be lucky to get 3 lead up marking attempts a game, most of Riewoldt's big marks either came on the wing or running back with the flight after pushing up hard to defend.

ne thing for sure, with so few opportunities he'll want to greatly improve his scoring efficiency!

So Lloyd and Russell survive. 

TT and Amos get the arse.  Power survived ?…

New coach will have to bring in own Assistants.

Harry will be one of the first asking for a trade IMO.

Note to Rossco : you only get one Nick Riewoldt in your lifetime, and your one occasion is used up.

So far, under a change of focus, a better defined role ..................... for now!

Russell won't stick it out if we send him back to the bench press, he left the Dawks to get away from the hands on and become more of a manager. He'll accept the role for now, until he finds a better offer.

He is like an old Trady being asked to get back on the tools, sure they can, for a little while!

Not true on Russell. Actually the complete opposite.

Review missed the main issue. Players again got away with their crap, unmotivated 20 year long non-efforts while the coach copped it in the neck. Means nothing will change. By the end of year 2 the players will jog through the motions again.

Did I miss something or did C Bruce survive... for now?

Important that L Sayers and C Liddle both acknowledged some degree of responsibility for past and recent failures. Liddle admitted the footy dept was performing below par on his watch.

Found it interesting that Liddle talked finals but Sayers talked, winning games, winning finals & winning premierships. Raise your expectations, Cain.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

This will be Lyon’s greatest challenge. When he starts getting heavy with offending players they will stab him in the back and the whole cycle starts again.
Reality always wins in the end.

I realise this is the exact opposite of what the Dawks claimed, they claimed when Russell left it was because his role was/had changed and he wasn't happy. But I read that as a bit of rock throwing, what does Puopy think?

FWIW, what I've written is what Russell told us when he first arrived, he stated he wanted an opportunity for wider development that the Dawks couldn't or wouldn't offer. Perhaps it is crap, just an excuse he put out there for moving across on bigger dollars!
