Folks i need to ask this..In your opinions ,does he need to go because hes not good at his job,or is the club at fault because they've put him in a role beyond his capabilities?

Both

But definitely more of the former.

But on the latter He should not be doing any contracts IMHO and although they may be lesser lights he's involved in them getting done and I am not convinced it's the right way to go. Giving him that much control is the fault of the club

However, the Hampson deal was the clincher for me, worst trade we've ever done and through in they gave a 3 year makes it worse

Simply, talked the talk early on but hasn't walked the walk.

Failed to deliver any big names to Tigerland despite promising to do so.   
Failed in recent times to solve our list deficiencies and address our list needs due to inactivity at this time of the year. Blind Freddy could see we've desperately needed quick, skillful small forwards and a decent back-up ruckman (not Hampson) since 2012; 
Failed to trade out deficient players on our list who still have trade value as a means to bring in players that actually address our list deficiencies.
Paid overs for duds - like Hampson for pick 28  :scream.
This and last year's trade/FA period has hardly been inspiring  :P.

The Club has a rating system out of 1000 for every player in the AFL as well as the draftees with 500 being your average decent AFL footballer. It's basically the sum of ratings of 10 categories each scored out of 100. How Blair could rate Hampson, who can't reliably perform basic skills such as kicking or marking, as equivalent to a decent mid-range second round pick #28, makes you query how the rankings are determined and Blair's ability to judge a footballer and make list management decisions.

Extra points if they play for Port or Carlton.
