Stevenson: Environment Key To Retaining List
Re: Stevenson: Environment Key To Retaining List
The audio down the bottom is well worth a listen. Talks about his shock at the level of passion at the club - has met with over 800 people in recent months. Lots of interesting stuff about Ballarat, Etihad etc.

Macca was big on if the culture is right the players will stay.

Recruiting quality youngsters plays a big part in it as well. Over the last 4 years we have done very well with our recruiting and they should be able to see an exciting future. If you enjoying going to work and believe there is a good future people aren't as inclined to be looking elsewhere.

If this was BMac's (not JMac) philosophy it certainly didn't work out for him: Griffen, Higgins, Jones, Tutt, Cooney.

Too bad he didn't create the right environment. ;)

That was a good way to spend 17 or 18 min.. Really impressive speaker who seems well suited to taking our club forward.

In all seriousness though out of the players you mentioned only Griffen is a loss.

I am well aware of that. The best player exodus ever.

Yep, sounds like a quality addition. Good voice for radio too btw.

Maybe these players needed to go to create the good environment.

Gotcha, agreed.
Re: Stevenson: Environment Key To Retaining List
Shocktober marked the end of a toxic mix. These things happen, most of us will have seen things like this in our workplaces. I think there were a few left but they pulled their heads in once the toxic environment dissipated.
Cost Macca his job, perhaps he should not have had his contract extended in the first place. But his sacrifice cleared the air and it is interesting, there is at least one senior lister who was probably a bit of a player in the lead up to the crisis who hasn't exactly fared that much better under the new coach.
