Another day at Carlton

Accountability comes from the top down - there's little point in whining about players not being accountable when the Board has no accountability whatsoever. Learned behavior. Players, Board, High Performance, Marketing etc. all off the hook because the coach is the designated sacrificial lamb.

Waste of money.

“We’re looking for a coach and we’re looking for leaders here at Carlton that will leave no stone unturned in going after absolutely everything to win games of footy.”

I see.

The article is a yawn, but these bits are worth noting :

Sayers said there will be no further staff departures after assistant coaches Dale Amos and Brent Stanton joined Teague through the exit door at Ikon Park.

Blues CEO Cain Liddle and Head of Football Brad Lloyd will remain in their respective roles.

Liddle and Lloyd surviving wont take us anywhere.....will continue to interfere in recruiting etc and both deserve the chop after SOS was booted for political reasons. Weak as cats piss review that wasnt really a review it was just a cover for sack David Teague, have zero confidence in any so called process we undertake and why bother with this pantomime of looking for a new coach.
Half the list should be booted too if its true they were not happy with Teague, a bloke who had their back as the continued to put up insipid lack of effort performances yet he came out every week and said he still had faith in them.
What an embarrassing half a season its been, laughing stock of the AFL and David Teague is better off out of the place and I hope he gets a job at Richmond and has some success. Decent man screwed over from the management all the way down to the playing group. The players deserve Ross Lyon, they wont know how good DT was to them until they get a dose of Lyons old world footy ideology and expectations.

Yes, 100% agreed.

As I mentioned when the review started, some people ( players, officials and fans ) need to be very wary of getting what they have asked for!

Imagine those who refused to chase getting Ross the Boss as a coach, major list changes coming, nowhere to hide?

If Lyon wants Cripps gone, or if Cripps wants Lyon out, who wins that battle twelve months from now? What will fans or the marketing department think then?

Don't wait. Send Cripps packing now.

Fresh start, new coach, new captains.

As much as I hate to admit it, it may well be the only way forward from this mess, and as I've posted before it is not without risk, but that doesn't mean it is not the right direction to go in.

I can't accept that the report of a dissatisfied playing list torpedoed the coach if that dissatisfied list is made up of spuds and list cloggers. If the also-rans were the problem you cut half the list before you'd cut Weiters, BigH, Walsh, Cripps, De Koning, etc., etc.. So it has to be the case that some significant talent torpedoed the coach, and that is therefore a massive problem if the playing list remains configured as it currently is. Fans do not appreciate what this means, they aren't thinking deeply enough about it, they look at players through rose coloured glasses.

I think I wrote this the other day, "There is a rotten Apple Jim!" it's a line I pinched from a movie, it has to be the case, and we need it removed before the whole lot goes off! Changing coaches won't make a shred of difference.

Sayers is just another in a long line of BS artists to "run" the place.  Tasmania in four years
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?
