    Yep that makes sense to me. He went from awesome chopper to weird librarian in the space of a year.
    He needs some Bevo time.

              Weird.

              Review already done?
              Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

                Done, and done... Hard.

                This is how I see the Grant review going.

                  Wondering if the Hard Review is in the same format as Hard Quiz. Tom Gleeson stands up in front of those being reviewed and asks them a series of ‘Hard’ questions on their functional area. The questions are multiple choice and you only need a pass to retain your job. If you buzz in early on someone else’s functional area and score more points than them you have the opportunity to take on their role. A pretty thorough process that will fill supporters with confidence that the club is heading in the right direction.

                    His review hole must be tender.

                    Edmund's comment had a particular thirst to it..........

                      Ameet: Under 'strengths', you've just put 'footy'.
                      Chris : Yeah.

                      Ameet: That's your job, though. I was sort of looking for your skills within the job so is there anything else you could put there. Okay.

                      Under 'weaknesses', you've put 'eczema'.

                      You've left this section blank. You haven't done the Q&A.
                      Chris: I thought you filled that in.

                      Ameet: No. This is aimed at you. 'To what extent do you believe that you have the skills and knowledge to perform your job effectively?' And then you tick one of the boxes - 'Not at all. To some extent. Very much so. Don't know. 'What would you tick?
                      Chris: Don't know

                      Ameet: OK. Question 2. 'Do you feel you have received adequate training to use your computer effectively?'
                      Chris: What are the options?

                      Ameet: Same as before. They're always the same. 'Not at all. To some extent. Very much so. Don't know.
                      Chris: Don't know.

                      Ameet: Don't know again. OK. 'Do you feel you are given the flexibility to decide how to accomplish your goals?' Do you want the options again?
                      Chris: Yeah

                      Ameet: Not at all. To some extent. It's always the same, Very much so. Don't know. Always the same.
                      Chris: Don't know

                      Ameet: If 'Don't know' wasn't there, what would you put?
                      Chris: What are the options?

                      Ameet: Not at all. To some extent. Very much so. Don't know.
                      Chris: Very much so.

                      Ameet: Do you remember the question?

                          It's going to get very interesting if we start poorly again, its a bold move from the club to keep everyone from Bevo and above unchanged. I'm guessing management now think that our list is the main issue?

                            Whose fault is that?
                            But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                              Pressure will start to mount up if we don't get off to a strong start. Until the Footscray season is over we won't get a strong view on how they rate the list and how many players they will delist/trade.

                              We clearly rated the list 12 months ago and brought in experienced players to top it off but we didn't get the development from the more marginal players and competition for spots wasn't as strong as expected.

                              Making an honest and accurate assessment of the playing list and the gaps is critical leading into the trade and draft periods. That will be the challenge for us.

                              Are there some early signs that we've grown up a bit and come to a realization that we don't have the right structure in place?
                              By letting Rohan Smith go even knowing that Marc Webb was also a likely departure may not have been something we would have been prepared to do 12 months ago. If we make some hard calls with our list management departures it could be a sign that we are taking a harder or dare I say a sharper edge to our axe.
