North 5 years in a row bottom four and still crap
Hawks no where near the ammount of top 5 picks that North have yet have gon past them at a rate of knots
Weâve been crap for 20 years. Whatâs your point??
They both did a rebuild.
I dont think Hawks done a full rebuild like North.
Hawthorn just did it perfectly.
Agree they did it correctly they wernt bottom four for very long
So there you go. Rebuilds work.
They do but you also need a good senior coach and development program which Hawks have.

âSo what I say them [the fans] is [I] totally understand ⌠Iâve felt that way myself. But you canât hold the people that are in there now â Brad Scott, Craig Vozzo especially, responsible for whatâs happened the last 20 years,â he said.
No, you canât. And I donât think anyone is holding Brad and Vozzo responsible for the past 20 years? I like Vozzo. I donât like Brad but thatâs because I think at a fundamental level he is just not a good coach, and I do not hold him responsible for the past 20 years.
However, we can blame you Barham, the current President and board member since 2016 for governance related decisions made over the nearly decade period you have been on the board.
He said Scott had taken a long-term approach with the Bombersâ list rather than protecting his position.
I just donât see it in the actions that Brad has taken over the 2 years he has been here. Maybe I am just a dumb dumb who canât see this brilliant long term approach, but to my dumb dumb brain its been a lot of short term try to win now but still fail approach.
âOne of the most gratifying things for me was Mason Redman re-signing halfway through the next year ⌠he said âhad this been 12 months ago, I wouldnât have re-signedâ.â
Heâs been pretty mediocre since he signed that dotted line though. How about improving the clubs culture and upholding player accountability despite whatever big dollars contract a player might have signed? Couple of nice things he does every now and then, getâs worshipped by a few on here, signs a long term extension, then does a whole lot of not really much. So gratifying Barham, I am so impressed.

I think Redman will bounce back
Maybe he provides some stability if he stays maybe he doesnât. Depends on if the next person is going to back Vozzo and Scott. I think Barham has done an ok job. He tipped out the old regime that was taking the club nowhere. He may have been on the board but obviously didnât have the influence to get rid of X and co until he made his move. Personally I think he has done his job and I couldnât care if he stays or goes. I do want Vozzo, Rosa and Scott to have 2 more years. As I feel we are in rebuild mode and it will take a couple of years to see if we are moving in the right direction.

Yeah, I have no idea what happened there, so itâs hard to pass judgement. For all I know Dean might have just quit. Iâm guessing someone on Blitz knows the story.
list management can do what they did, barham can say what he said, none of that matters if brad throws goldstein in for 15+ games.

The next president that comes in has to back in Brad and Vozzo and continue what Barham started itâs why i think Welsh will be the next president imo.

For how long??
At least the next 2-3 years
A lot of those green lights are yet to be proven so should be yellow going by your system of assessment.
