His ears would have been ringing for days. I'm also guessing SOS has plenty on his plate to worry about other than today's result.

There's at least two accounts for why SOS wasn't in the rooms after Jack's 100th : one, told by Ben Silvagni, that SOS was too tired and waiting in the car, sounds pretty weak and unconvincing to me. The other, that SOS' presence would distract from Jack's achievement, does IMO, at least sound plausible. Steve is the undisputed star and star attraction of that family, and that's never going to change.

SOS would want us in the finals and StKlida to get the best draft hand.

Reality is, SOS has SFA to do with what happens on match day. So his thoughts, wants and opinions mean nothing.

Ross Lyon is the one that has the ability to make a difference.
Does he want to win?
Or
Does he want to not win and get a better draft pick?

Pretty sure he'll take the win.

SOS wanted Jack to leave the club but his son wouldnt as all his mates are at the club hence the lack of response for anything Jack did on the field. Thats from a reliable source who knows the family, of course SOS has a few other issues on his mind at the minute I guess and his public appearances have been few and far between.

Contrast the reaction from SOS to any of SoJ's game day achievements, with the reaction of Peter Daicos celebrating the moments of Josh or Nick, it's telling! :o

Yes, no doubt it's possible, but I think we also need to consider that they are pretty different personalities. I've never known SOS to be particularly demonstrative, nor to be one constantly seeking the limelight. I'd be pretty confident that SOS and the rest of the Silvagni clan give appropriate acknowledgement and celebration of Jack's achievements in private.

SOS doesn't even offer a feeble clap of the hands! :o

It's become a parody of the Italian vendetta, and worse still it spits in the face of all the thousands of Carlton fans that adored and cheered him!

Like I said, it's possible he's putting his grievances over everything else, but I wouldn't be inferring too much about the SOS/Jack/CFC relationship off one tiny bit of footage. It's a small sample space, too small to carry much weight IMO.

There’s Jack’s version too, and it doesn’t portray SOS in a glowing light.  In case you missed it, it was along the lines, “My old man wouldn’t come to my 100th presentation because the club sacked him.”
