Turns out

Long-time Geelong recruiter Luke Williams will be leaving Simonds Stadium take up a role in Carlton’s recruiting department.
Williams joined the Cats in 1999 and has worked in football operations, forward scouting and recruiting throughout his tenure with the club.
“Luke has done an outstanding job for the club since he arrived and we are sorry to see him leave,” Geelong’s list and recruiting manager Stephen Wells said.
“We obviously wish him well in the move. He has made a significant contribution to the club over 14 years here.”
Still think our communications could do with some tightening.
Ryan Trainor alluded to an appointment in the recruiting department in his Q&A on Tuesday night and I didn't see anyone on hear posting that article from the Geelong website on Tuesday afternoon (when it was apparently published).
But really, you are never happy unless you can have a whinge about something, are you Don? Always there to throw in a "but" upon anything positive that happens to Carlton. Good things can happen at this club Don without your constant and paranoid need to temper every bit of positivity about the club.
I refer you to my previous comment

Comes from good stock, so can't complain about this appointment.
Welcome aboard Luke

No ifs, buts or maybes there.
I simply like to point out areas (of which there are still quite a few) where I think the club can improve, and I will continue to do so until there's nothing left to improve. I'm certainly not alone in this, so don't really know why you've decided to come after me (...again). But hey, to each their own, and if you're happy with everything the club is doing then all power to you. I am not, I'm sorry that this bothers you, but it ain't changing.
But back on topic: Yes, in this case, while we were being told "stay tuned for a major announcement", it had already been announced elsewhere. It's not the first time it's happened either (ie. Hawks announcing their social media guru was coming here days before we announced it ourselves), and it's symptomatic of communications that still could do with improvement.
