From Pav...https://www.sen.com.au/news/2021/06/13/matthew-pavlich-provides-insight-into-upcoming-carlton-review/

What I want to know is who is picking our team each week ?
Who is our chairman of selectors ?
Who is on the selection committee ?

I’ve also been wondering how the Richmond bloke is sleeping at night…?
He must be tossing and turning and not getting a wink of sleep worrying about the conflict of interest with Geoff doing this review…

Why the conflict NB?

I read somewhere there is no chairman of selectors anymore, its a position no one uses anymore (but I'll stand corrected). I would guess the selection committee is made up of all the coaches (head and line), Russell and maybe Brad Lloyd.

Going back a bit - so what if Dunstall knocked us back?

Without knowing, I would think Luke Sayers is a pretty hard taskmaster - CEO of PWC - you need to be make sure you are able to make money for all the partners/directors, whatever they call them now.  He has also recruited a pretty big and handy team for his new enterprise.

Game plan questions could be as easy as What is the gameplan?  Why does it work? Why doesn't it work?  doesn't matter if reviewers haven't watched us play in the flesh.

I would imagine that Pav would have a few blocks of time in Melbourne - face to face gives much better visual signals than online.

Maybe part of the reason for the review now is for Sayers' understanding of exactly where we are and wants to be prepared when he has to ' roll his sleeves up'.

It was interesting on the wireless (774) over the weekend, I heard someone talking about Fagan and how he developed culture first (which is also what Noble is trying) - be a good start!  Also, that in recruiting all the GWS stars at the start, they took the best available and not a balanced approach, resulting in a lot of midfielders becoming defenders and not being the most happy...

Interesting G2C, I was hoping that the line coaches weren’t involved directly in selection…
Imagine that our line coaches are selecting the players THEY want and we are performing as we are !
If the coaches were having players foisted upon them and having to “make do” with that, it would seemingly be a reasonably easy correction to allow them more input into the squad, I hope you’re wrong…

Why the conflict NB?

In the eyes of the Richmond bloke there was conflict with 3 x Silvagni’s at the club so 2 had to go, now there’s 2 Walshes and one of them might wield the hatchet @ some of the Richmond blokes mates…
I can imagine the conversation over breakfast “How are the coaches Sam ?” “I don’t rate X” “Mmmm Interesting…” “What about Lloydy ?”

How are they related, other than common surname?

Caro suggested the review isn't independent with Sayers and Liddle presiding over events. Suggested Liddle should be reviewed and that Brad Lloyd should be concerned.
