I would also say that there is a time and a way of doing it without making it seem like a head hunting exercise. Our club has form for this type of behaviour - think back to R2 2015 when completely out of the blue they announced a ground zero rebuild. Both that announcement and this current one cause trouble, instability and uncertainty. Think back to the Geelong, Collingwood and Richmond reviews, and then compare them to ours. Night and day IMO.
We all want the club to get better - the club has issues, as all clubs do, But we seem to pick the most unhelpful, destructive way of fixing those issues IMO. Which experts at the club thought we were playing finals this season ? I never thought that, and if Teague is being judged against unachievable goals, then maybe those that pluck random expectations out of their clacker are the ones who should be reviewed, and not the coach.
Fair shout. I think we all agreed a review needed to occur. They have just handled it badly (no surprises!!)
