Bluemour Discussion Thread XVI - Facts Not Welcome

[The Blue Weirdo]

Agree, however ... don't throw the baby out with the bath water. When you are learning the public grooming machinations of a job … you are going to fu** up occasionally. Not like when Juddy goes live he is reading from a teleprompter. There will be gaffs.

Love how this bloke normally puts the "media" in check ….. done it before magnificently. Sure the "training-gate scandal" was an error of judgement, however he has done more good than bad at this stage.

I challenge you to go onto "live" TV and face 3 antagonistic media hounds and come out unscathed.

Do you remember he is a midfielder? Not a University graduated, bought up media bloodhound?

Exactly, in hindsight he should have used the Lou Reed philosophy of media response.

 

[Blue and Blue]

Ross does the best press conferences in the game.

I’m not sure I want him coaching us, but I sure as hell want him to continue coaching someone so I get to see him say ‘Ross things’...

Well you can always watch silence of the lambs and get the same effect from Hannibal.......

 

[DangerousD]

Chris Judd, a constant defender of all things Carlton in the media the last 2 years, echoes discussions had within the club and gets smashed for it, all his good work all year, gone and now people wanting him gone.

Some comments are pathetic

 

[My Hat]

Judd clearly messed up with the training wheels comment, but he came out the next week and owned it and said he needs to do better. Not going to lynch a bloke for making one mistake, especially when he recognises it and commits to improve.

I'd prefer Ratts remains an ex Carlton coach and continues his career elsewhere (with good wishes).

I'd prefer him over Voss.

 

[Doro]

I'd prefer him over Voss.

Been there done that with Ratts. Rather move forward.

 

[Metalcrusher]

Been there done that with Ratts. Rather move forward.

Not sold on either tbh … Voss or Ratts.

 

[Matt Clape]

ever met the bloke?

He’s a lot different away from the media. Very personally engaged with his players.

 

[BLUEALLTHRU]

It’s always been my lifelong dream. I feel fulfilled now in a way I never knew I could be.

Great Arse

 

[I bleed Blue]

Gonna be a longggggg 7 weeks.

Let's just hope it's full of wins and Teague case becomes too strong

I agree with this. There was a reason Ratts was let go in the first place and wasn't because Malthouse became available.
Ratts failed to do what Teague has been doing in his 5 games at the helm, Teague reads the game and makes positional changes to outwork the opposition coach. Ratts IIRC, was very one dimensional with no plan B throughout a game.

Best of luck to Ratts, but would prefer if he wasn't our head coach again.
Could only hope he's learned a few things as an assistant since departing the Blues gig.

 

[Doro]

Not sold on either tbh … Voss or Ratts.

I'm not selling Voss, just not interested in a return to 2012.

6 weeks now.

 

[thylacine60]

bit tom petty.......

 

[I bleed Blue]

6 weeks now.

One week to announce the decision

 

[ESKIE]

Stops dragging my heart around

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

I won't back down.

Shuddupp.

 

[ESKIE]

Freeeeeee fallin

 

[Opine]

Feels like only a few weeks ago he was being praised for representing the club in the media and not taking any crap, and now he’s a failure with malicious intentions. The mind boggles.

“Thin skin” is real condition that doesn’t discriminate between clubs. We’re not immune.

 

[thylacine60]

you clowns are still learning to fly........

 

[cookie monster]

The hatred for Judd is reaching absurd levels IMO.

Generally represents the club quite well in the media.

His "training wheels" comment has been blown well out of proportion. In no way, shape or form does it undermine Teague nor does it rule him out of getting the gig on a full time basis.

I am forever amazed at how many people just follow what the media push like sheep without sitting back and actually thinking about things.

For a bloke that during his playing days, and as a captain of a club, was very vocal in saying he didn't enjoy being in the limelight, or the role footballers had to play in the media....

He seems verrrry happy to lap it up now that he's figured out he's actually no good at doing anything other than football

Why didn't he display this aptitude to lead and represent when he was actually the captain of our club, and we needed him most??

 

[thylacine60]

I said........

 

[Jabba73]

ever met the bloke?

Don’t need to meet Donald Trump to know he is an arrogant, lying flog ... just sayin’

 

[HavUEvaSeenTheRain]

Bloody hell imagine if we lost this week, this joint will be upto 800 pages by Sunday night arguing over who should coach
