Football Department Review

[Thryleon]

Not for one second questioning the appointment of Matthew Pavlich to this review "committee"......comes across as very intelligent and footy smart guy. But if he's not actually able to travel back and forwards from Perth to Melbourne for a lot of the process because of COVID restrictions, surely that makes things a little bit harder? I would've thought you'd need to be right there at the coal face, talking to players and everyone else? I know in this modern world of Zoom meetings etc it happens every day, but just wouldn't have thought it's ideal?

It depends what the review is for.

I.e. we don't need him to observe people in action, but the role and its KPIs and how our football department is structured.  How the staff feel about their role at the club and what their PD should look like.

Thats very corporate structure and governance and high performance related rather than individual.

I think we as fans are very old fashioned in our thinking regarding footy clubs.

These are more your corporate structures and role and responsibility related reviews.

Really, we probably should have done this before making the call on SOS.
