Fair point Cookie, be interesting to see if he makes a move on this when he comes on board.

My expectation is that Juddy will either request, or be given some authority (be it in a different role or not) to fill gaps with the right people. He'll also attract people by nature of his elite unique contribution to the sport. That will be a little bonus for the club. There may even be some changes in roles to respond to the rebuild environment, which likely varies from the 'there abouts' environment. Of course, I don't have a clue, but it's fun thinking through the issues we face, and hearing from fellow passionate supporters ;D

I understand Judd is to replace Bear Gleeson on the board, Gleeson's board portfolio is List Management.
Carlton's football executive if we have one is basically a panel with Gleeson, Mathieson, Trigg, McKay, Bolton, Silvagni and Craig.
Judd was reported in the Hun as returning to CFC in the capacity of Football Director. I recall the article being posted on this site by Kruddler.
Reality always wins in the end.
I may be wrong but ....I think the position won't be so much a "real hands on one" but he will be the Director with oversight of the football department.

He will certainly be "active" if my understanding of the man is correct. I can't see him just being there to enjoy the G and Ts.

Very cryptic.

We have no Football Director, that is were the article is going wrong;
Quote:Judd, who has signed a three-year deal said current football director Adrian Gleeson would hand over to him at the end of the footy season,
Gleeson has "List Management" as part of his board concerns, a role he shares with Mathieson. In effect they have oversight on recruiting, not staff appointments.
Perhaps The Judge has created a new role for Judd, I think if I recall correctly the Board has the discretion to appoint up to two people to the board. Judd may be one of the few appointments they could make that would not be seen as a backwards step.

We don't want Judd trying to do everyone's job or we'll be heading for conflict.
Andrew McKay is the man in charge of the day to day football operations...a Director is more of an oversight position rather than a hands on one.
Sure but he will be hopefully keeping an eye on things and ensuring all is well. If this is not the case he will highlight this to the board for action - isn't that what we want??
