For me our Player Development looks 1000% better than it has been in the past which is why I changed my forum signature a while back.
Absolutely.

Whilst i agree with you. Has the club ever said otherwise (in the moment?).
Its only when looking back have they acknowledged a problem....and even then, rarely.

I'm still a little cautious re player development.
Not counting first year players because you don't have a base line to measure improvement....
Which players have shown the benefits of our development?
Curnow definitely...who else?
Re: Carlton 2017 - Review - ElwoodBlues1 - 08-15-2017
I put player development down to Bolton, Fraser, Amos, Barker etc...not sure what Craig has done to be so valuable...
Bolton and Amos could probably lecture him on the merits of what a successful footy dept needs..
Every club he ends up at usually falls quicker than a Malaysian airliner and rises like a phoenix when he leaves....

And, as I have pointed out before, Walker admits that Craig did the right thing playing him in the magoos
It seemed to me that Craig was tasked with trying to get Jaksch to keep focused. Fraser and the line coaches are the blokes putting the work into Jaksch but, when all is said and done, the coaches can only provide a framework in which players may develop. Jaksch seems the odd one out among our recent additions and I suspect that the responsibility for his lack of progress rests squarely on his shoulders.

You don't get them all right and the form of those 2 will be 2 of the positives from this year. Funnily KJ was the highest rated and certainly cost us the most, there's a lesson in itself!
