List isnt the problem - it's drilling a squad.

Chris Scott has drilled Geelong - no matter who is in or out they are drilled as a squad.
Chris Fagan has drilled Brisbane
Craig McRae has drilled Collingwood
Sam Mitchell has drilled Hawthorn
Adam Kingsley has drilled GWS
Hardwick has drilled GCS,

What do these coaches have in common?

They were not re employed after getting sacked.

Lyon, Brad Scott, Clarkson is banana territory

Longmuir is just an awful coach like Buckley.

Thats not the point - the point is why are they not playing to their best and who is in a position to ensure they are managed to be at their best.

I imagine the management of them being at their best is a collaborative, coordinated effort including players, line coaches, fitness and high performance staff, senior coaches, dieticians etc. The players are not circus animals, and the senior coach is not a ringmaster.


So why do we need a senior coach and his staff? What you are saying they are pointless to have at a club.

None  of our AA players are playing anywhere near their best.
Many, if not most, never will again, as age and cumulative injuries, catches up to them.
There won't be many All-Austalians from Carlton this year. :(

Weitering - AA
Cripps - AA 2x Brownlow
Curnow - AA 2x Coleman
Docherty - AA
Haynes - AA

Missing

Walsh - AA
Saad - AA
McKay - AA + Coleman

Even with those missing - there is A grade talent on every single line.

What are you smoking mate? Like many Carlton supporters, you have an over inflated opinion of our list.

Sounds like you know the obvious answer why the squad and system has not progressed and has not improved since 2023 Preliminary Final.

The whole past 18 months is on Voss - the squad isnt drilled appropriately enough to play finals football and that means only one thing.

You have missed the bit where I said we have gotten spanked three weeks in a row.
I didn't miss it, its just not relevant to what happened tonight. If you think that performance, or the the one last week, is  on Voss, I cant help you.

You think the squad is well drilled ?

I don't.. we have exponentially deteriorated since mid last year.

Now the squad has lost all faith... getting spanked three weeks in a row in AFL land with the talent the squad has on the list means - not getting the best out of the squad.
When you play a team on top (10 pts clear) you are under pressure all night, drilled or not drilled. There is a reason they are on top (10 pts clear). You might not like it because its Coll, that's on you not me or Voss for that matter.

Four years to drill a squad in a system that has failed with incremental; year on year improvements with A grade talent on every line. Sooner we realise what an epic failure Voss has been the better.

Played finals 2 out of 4, missed one series by 0.1%, perspective mate. Coll missed the 8 last year after winning the flag.

Another week media smashing the club and fully deserved.

Time for Voss to resign in an honorable manner.
Not really, they started the night 10 pts on top of the ladders, we were 10th. They should be smashing teams in the bottom end. Lets be realistic here.
