What is the point of a list manager if this is not the case?
Why don't all coaches turn up on draft day?
They are consulted and can make recommendations, but will coach whoever they have too.
List managers primarily assess the options, they don't make the decisions in isolation, they are briefed by the coach about the type of player required to suit the game plan.
MM said a lot of stuff, and often he said the opposite the next week! I don't pick and chose when to believe the stuff he said, I look for actions that back up words, and as far as I am concerned I saw very few actions backing up his rhetoric!
People and players see through that, and it destroys culture!
