I don't think that is true.
Going by what he has said over the past couple of weeks I think you'll find the following is more correct:
1. Big changes to zones cause instability and there is no way to measure improvement/failure in their systems.
2. He wants to give the defence time to gel as they have only been playing as a unit for 4 games.
3. Incremental changes are his preferred choice to measure what will and wont work with this playing group.

To be honest it is the right way to go about it from a statistical and probability stand point.
Coupled with the fact we have 0 depth, he doesn't really have a choice.
Like some have already said, he inherited a relatively poor list and has made lemonade out of lemons, but there are still too many lemons.
And Austin and co, have not really set the world alight with bringing in mature depth or quality when our window was open.
Like I've said for 3+ years, we needed to add mature class to our midfield but instead, last year we put 2 drafts hope on an 18 year old kid.
This is beyond poor list management, if we traded in another older player like a Jack Macrae to settle the midfield and help the kids we wouldn't be discussing this right now.

His job is to be a parental figure, mate, best friend, etc to get players to believe a story, play together as a group and get the best out of them.
But going by his presser on Thursday, he won't be having too many mates for awhile unless they start performing.
However the risk is and as we know, Carlton players go to water when the going gets tough because they know we will sack the coach instead of them.
Time to change the narrative.

The other very important point I feel needs addressing, our midfielders have not hit the scoreboard. Very obvious they aren’t running deep enough to impact.

During the game, we were highlighting how we just have little composure or understanding of when to go and not to go and connection into our F50. Just so bloody obvious.

Our midfielders outscored our forwards 5.3 to 1.6 on Thursday (0.1 rushed). If there was one positive from the game, it's that the midfield finally had scoreboard impact. Just a pity it came at the cost of the forwards contributing any-bloody-thing.

..

even the winning streaks and famous victories are starting to look like an outlier, rather than a norm.

Here we go again.

We have more wins than losses under Voss, so it's even more untrue to say 12 losses in 14 is more representative than a 9 game win streak.

The truth is that we are a wildly mercurial team - in the true sense of the word, not the bastardised AFL usage - with the mean result being slightly above average.

But I wholeheartedly agree that that is well below the mean level we would have expected given the assets at our disposal.

Was never a fan of Voss coming in, but looking at our list of assistants, I’m not sure they’re bringing much tactical nous in planning or on game day.
If we’re 0 and 11 or something similarly dreadful, we’ll probably see Voss forced out.
If we’re seeing some improvement though, I’d give him til the end of the year and see if re-shuffling assistant coaches will help. I’d be moving Hamill, Russell and Clarke out immediately. Our midfield is too one-dimensional and we need some fresh ideas.
Move Power in as midfield coach - he’s got nothing to work with in the VFL. I’d probably ditch Greaves too - no prior knowledge but given he’s assisted Voss for about 10 yrs you wonder if he’s a yes man.

I'm not sure why anyone is surprised by the lack of connection.
Our team trained the whole off season with a forward line of Harry, Kemp, Fantasia, Elijah, Cottrell, Fogarty, Motlop.
Get to round 1 and Harry has checked out, Elijah and Fantasia (who supply the class and foot skills) are gone and Motlop can't get near it.
So we are playing with a key forward who didn't have a pre-season, another who is a key back/VFL standard player and fill ins.
We could have used TDK as a competing resting ruck but that went out the window when Pitto and Skull got injured. So the cupboard is bloody bare!

We were a poor defensive side last year and the coaches have reversed that. We've gone from being in the worst couple of teams conceding scores to one of the better ones. Despite losing our runner up B&F/best medium defender before the season.
Offensively we're struggling badly but we have no forwards!
Get Elijah back in, Harry when he's in a decent head space, some miles in Charlie's legs and Cottrell/Durdin (who I believe is potentially our best small forward) and hopefully Fantasia and we'll have a forward line that can kick goals. Like its did last year.

I don't understand the theories on blowing up the list. A look at the VFL shows we have young talent coming through in O'Farrell, Campo's, Carroll, O'Keefe (who everyone forgets has just turned 20!) and Jagga as a new recruit next year with Peter Deans boy and our youngsters are looking good IMO.

Judge the coaches when we actually have some forwards.

Had a chat with an ex player of ours recently, and he agreed with me, resoundingly.

The lack of accountability in selection highlights this, regardless of depth.
