Teague will surely want Daisy back.

Dropping Casboult for team balance by bringing in McGovern who has done nothing to support his $700k contract is really setting the wrong tone and doubt we are that stupid to do it. I would drop marchbank for balance if it’s needed, well before Casboult. He has been a steady rock in defence and one of the rare bright lights.

As for Polson, I watched the 2nds and he did what he always does, SFA. Hardly touches it runs around like a headless chook guarding space and shanks it every one of his 5-7 touches.

If we are serious the new coach will delist him at years end. Won’t make it. Need to move on and stop justifying running around in circles is enough to be promoted. I know we are the bottom team but he is that far below afl level it’s not funny.

McGovern, and Charlie, are only 50-odd game players. Marchbank isn't even at that stage. Casboult has more experience than any 2 of that 3 combined.....but his output doesn't reflect that. There is also the problem of finding a matchup for him. I haven't really watched the Lions this year so not sure if one exists, but most teams would see Casboult lining up at CHB and design a playbook around their CHF to exploit him.

How many ways can someone exploit Charlie if he were to play CHB?

As for Polson...
Think about Teague. How many touches did he get each week? How was his disposal? How was his effort? Polson is a mini teague, he just plays a different position.

Possible ins: McGov, Simmo, Murphy, Thomas

Possible outs: Fasolo, Lang, Plowman,

Fasolo cannot possibly stay in. Lang’s zip / 3 in front of goal is a coach killer. We need to fit Simmo into the backline. Kennedy is the one I’d give another we to. Not sure if McGov comes straight in....

If Bolton was the cause of our underperformance, why would you drop players for under performing?

Wouldnt you keep them in to see if this is now rectified rather than swinging mass changes around?




If you ask me, we are now searching through our list to see who can play well for us moving forward, and we need to make a number of tough calls at the end of this season.

Garlett, Fasolo, Lang, Lobbe, Phillips and anyone whom we are considering parting ways with, should all be playing senior footy so we can work out who is still up to it, and who isnt.

At the moment, no one looks up to it, and we would be better served getting the kids to play together in the VFL, until they are ready to play together at AFL level.

Same here!  I won’t be attending the game and I suspect that there won’t be much of a crowd.

I'm torn, part of me says onward and upward, the other part says we are back to square one.

I was the same last week. Thought I'd give them one more chance and really believed we could turn it around.....5 minutes into the second quarter I'd packed it in and gone for another surf!

It will be alot more free run and attack apparently, which Teague is more renowned for. Bit more of a focus on scoring. Hopefully we'll get something like the Dogs and the first half of the Hawthorn games. He is the only coach to take any form of a Carlton side to a Grand Final, doing it 2 years straight, where he did focus alot on attack. Hopefully continues that way.

Couldn't keep going with how we were. Players are the same so hopefully it's forward. Certainly not square one.

It's certainly not time for flying off into FrouFrou land and thinking we'll win the game, the flag or anything else. But I say get behind Teague and see what he has to offer first. He'll never be as good as Bolton, so we have to be realistic on that front..........

The Docherty interview re Teague on the CFC makes for very interesting listening. Less meetings, less strategies, simple messages.   Maybe we’ve been ‘overtaught!’
