\u201cAs a leader, I fell short on what was required\u2019,\u201d Voss said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat has been a difficult reflection. I let you down, and that sits really uncomfortably with me.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am deeply grateful for the chance to keep leading this incredible place.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut no expectation in this room will ever exceed the responsibility I feel for our club, our people and our families.\u201d<\/p>\n

Voss said the Blues\u2019 57-point defeat to Collingwood in round 17 was the \u201cmost humbling\u201d moment of his football career.<\/p>\n
\u201cDriving home, I was left with my thoughts \u2026 it was the most humbling moment of my career,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cNot just reflecting on the loss, but the heaviness we all carry.<\/p>\n
\u201cTogether, inside the locker room, and outside in the stands, we as a club have culturally defeated ourselves.\u201d<\/p>\n

Voss wanted to cast an eye forward, saying the Blues will bring more fun into the football program next season.<\/p>\n
\u201cI could tell you what you\u2019d like to hear tonight, but tonight is (about) what we all need to hear,\u201d Voss said.<\/p>\n
\u201cRight now, we are not a very resilient football club.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis club is powerful if we choose it to be, but the fight must be out there, not in here.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy greatest lesson is this: chasing excellence can\u2019t come at the expense of enjoying the journey.\u201d<\/p>\n
