Just out of interest mate, how tall are you?
HUN reporting Buckley has pulled out of our coaching race.
The media's collective take on all this is actually hilarious.
For the last two seasons Teague has demonstrated absolutely zero insight into how to best manage both a list and a gameplan.
It started last season in the hub when he played virtually the same team every single week, with games being squeezed in to fit the compressed schedule, until he ran that squad into the ground and we surrendered the season.
He also appeared to flat out refuse to set any standards at match committee throughout 2021, retaining underperforming senior players for weeks beyond what was fair or justified.
Throw in the overriding theme of his coaching tenure being a general lack of respect for defensive footy in any shape or form (which is staggering but he even articulated this before the Bulldogs match - "we'll just out-score them"), and you have somebody who just simply isn't up to it.
We have too many talented players to put up with this garbage and he had to be moved on, simple as that. The media can continue having a cry about it if they want but Carlton should be satisfied with their decision, even if it was a little messy in arriving at it.

It’s inevitable just give Ross the job today. There’s no one else interested

Clarko said no, Buckley said no, Don Pyke appears to have said no to coaching anywhere, Scott appears to be taking the afl job so who else is there?You've mentioned that a few times.
Why do you think no one else is interested?
I had a crazy dream last night too, ferris. Don’t remember what it was, but I remember waking up filled with anxiety. Thank goodness I’m awake now and back in the real world…
Seriously. Sure, we could have "surrounded him with more support" in 2023. But that "support" would have literally had to have been like, "Okay David, we're not going to listen to you anymore with regard to selection, gameplan or player management, here's what we're doing instead...".It's incredible how quickly revisionist takes become the norm and David Teague is heralded as a super coach who wasnt given the chance to shine.
Get the fu** out of here with that bullshit, moronic media people.
Caleb didn't have any major injury issues in his Benalla days, it wasn't til he got to GWS. I should know as I know him and played with himIt's unfortunate that Marchbank has had genuine injury concerns since junior years tbh

Lower than a snakes belly now has a literal meaning?Let's just say I look up to Caleb Daniel...

A great man once told us not to believe the media…It’s inevitable just give Ross the job today. There’s no one else interested
The issue with Dow is he has a lot of deficiencies in areas that are important for his best position as an inside mid:
- Poor Tank
- Poor Defensively
- Average Disposal
- Physically Small
- Struggles to Accumulate
- No secondary position
I would still prefer to keep him given his limited trade value, but he needs a massive pre-season to be in the round one team.
Very much see ball, get ball, struggles away from that.Dow has improved his tank dramatically, in one game he run well over 14 KM, 2nd only to Walsh
The other thing, he isnt that small, in weight, so no excuses there.
IMHO, Dow struggles to read the play, often in no means land when away from stoppages.
Clarko said no, Buckley said no, Don Pyke appears to have said no to coaching anywhere, Scott appears to be taking the afl job so who else is there?
Buckley still a chance or there’s others interested??A great man once told us not to believe the media…
All three are conditional, non contact type, small framed, lightweights, aerobic capacity fair only, far too many of similar mold.Surely the comments made by Riley Beveridge regarding O'Brien, Dow and SPS can't be true. How can list management decisions be made without a coach. If SPS wants to leave I understand the trade. But with Dow for instance why would we trade him. He has shown great improvement in 2021 when he was given a full time midfield role. Yes he has deficiencies but he is what 21 years old. We will get no where near what we gave up for him (same as O'Brien). They also wouldn't be on any massive $$$ so I don't understand the logic in trading them.
Could be right.Very much see ball, get ball, struggles away from that.
Yeah super coach in our dreams, David Teague is a great guy , gets on well with boys , but is not perspective or shrewd match day, far too slow to react.Seriously. Sure, we could have "surrounded him with more support" in 2023. But that "support" would have literally had to have been like, "Okay David, we're not going to listen to you anymore with regard to selection, gameplan or player management, here's what we're doing instead...".
I'm sure that would have worked out great!
