The idea that Ken can take a rock bottom club to mid table and finals and silly.
We were not ROCK BOTTOM in 2012.
There's a whole lot of context surrounding our NOT EVEN BOTTOM 4 finish.
He can achieve competitive results and probably improve a club with pieces already there. He could maybe even drop in to a side with a premiership caliber list and win a flag (before he starts to bend the list to his will and starts to go stale with gameplan/overcorrect deficiencies), but I believe the idea that he can rebuild from rock bottom is not proven yet.
I never said we were rock bottom when he took us over but I genuinely believe he'd be a good fit at North and believe his strengths are for a club seeking to lift off the bottom.
His win/loss record against bottom 10 teams is very good and he resonates with young players, which bottom 4 teams usually have plenty of (except wet toast).
He does have strengths but not for teams either in or close to the premiership window.
