Balme has just met all the staff, gone to his office and sitting down for morning tea coffee and biscuits contemplating WTF have I done.

This afternoon he will check out our list management basket weaving course.

When Thompson blindsided the club by quitting for Essendon it was Balme who called the players and coaches together and assured them they were capable of another premiership and that Geelong would find them a coach capable of delivering that.

“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Ch7 news said on his first day Balme went to lunch with his "underling" Richardson

Also reported Deledio's future still uncertain

Huge news, sensational reporting

I doubt he had enough time to assess the list to be much influence this trade period.  It's during the 2017 season  and the end of next year he will show what he is worth.  I would expect him to be influential in getting rid of under performers but most of them, FJ, BH, might be gone before he really starts.
