Is it the off-field stuff?
I think since LoGiudice took over the off field side of things, especially at board level, has been quite stable.
His partnership with Trigg set up the rebuild and sold it to supporters brilliantly.
The transition to Liddle seems to have gone reasonably smoothly without us skipping much more than a beat.
Even with the poor to mediocre results the majority of Carlton supporters are maintaining their patience.
Any other coach in our history would be on their last legs with results of the last two seasons and the worst ever start to a year.
Even the usual outside critics (media, ex footballers etc) are maintaining the line that we're on track.
My recent posts on this issue need to be seen in context with recent posts from others. The current argument seems to be that :
(a). the rebuild is simply embracing the draft and swapping players for picks, and
(b). that we have been through several rebuilds before.
If (a) is true, then we should be very worried, and I disagree with (b), unless you count changing coaches as a rebuild. The intent behind actions, decisions, thought processes, beliefs, values has remained constant despite the changing roster of senior coaches and players, at least until Bolton came along, and even then I'm pinning my hopes that he genuinely is a change agent, and not a hoax.
Time will tell.
