What does a "List Manager" do?
Just a bit curious as to what exactly the person in this role would do. And how it would value it would other than jobs done by Coaches, Recruiting Manager and Football Operations Manager. ie what do they do that is not already covered?www.bigfooty.com
We started rebuilding the side less than two years ago? Why would anything, KPP or otherwise be adequate yet?
Who was Luff adament on recruiting but didn't want to come?
A list manager over sees all avenues for player recruitment. He isn't on the road scouting players and making the decisions himself. As I said, I would imagine it's in a think tank type environment where players are ranked, opinions are listened to, BPA versus needs reasoned and players selected from all criteria.
'Why would anything, KPP or otherwise be adequate yet?'
Not sure what you mean here, but I'm assuming you mean they wouldn't be ready? Probably not, but they would be getting valuable time in the VFL whilst strengthening our development team.
I'm a believer in KPP first for rebuilding, but I can see the benefits of the path we have gone down too. I'm just hoping the football department has their eyes on a couple of KPP in the 23-26 age bracket. Our depth absolutely stinks.
MacPherson from GC was the player Luff wanted, and once that fell through apparently we were offered Brodie and pick 19 but knocked it back. Even if we didn't want Brodie it was boneheaded as we do t have a 2nd rounder after CCJ...
