No I can’t. But the realisation that he can’t “Travel the World” during a Global pandemic has made him readjust his mindset. He will be our next Coach. 100%.

Well those are pretty good odds. 100%. That's certain enough for me. Welcome Clarko!! Off to buy some more polish for our 17th cup. 👍 😍

The 30-45 day process comment, makes you wonder/assume we are targeting one or several coaches, CEOs, football managers, knee deep in finals.

Theres no way it would take that long otherwise.

👍👍👍

The club did say the review was about more than Teague.

Media and many supporters seem to have forgotten this very quickly.
 
I know this news has somewhat broken already but for what it’s worth, spoke to a club administrator who keeps their cards very close to their chest normally.

Interesting points:

- Teague lost the players last year in the hub, when issues re game plan were brought up by players, they fell on deaf ears.

- this fractured a lot of relationships

- Teague became particularly bitter and nasty towards not only players, but staff that had nothing to do with his termination. The feeling was that he’d completely lost the plot (understandable imo)


Had to read between the lines on the following*

- Lyon highly unlikely

- Cook is waiting for geelongs finals campaign to be over before signing but is more or less done

- Carlton will not let Clarkson walk away from this

- both Scott brothers are options 2 and 3 but like I said, they won’t let go of Clarkson and Cook is seen as somewhat of a key piece to that

From the conversation, my overall feeling was that (and this wasn’t my opinion pre convo) moving on from Teague was 100% the right decision.
Also, the club is not in as bad a shape as being portrayed, and actually quite the opposite. This is a bit of a line in the sand moment for us. Sayers is the right person for the job… There is hope
 
This is from an scum supporting mate in relation to Weightman last week

“Wasn't suggesting it had a influence on result. be he's a complete cheat. 36% of his goals this year from frees. Highest in the comp! He's a cheat, first instinct always to play for free, ball 2nd.

all 4 last week were from frees so he excelled himself. possibly 1 was there, possibly. But he took his cheating to new levels.”

Hilarious when * supporters accuse opposition players of “cheating”.

The hypocrisy after getting nailed by ASADA is astounding 😂😂😂😂😂😂
 
LBJ stole that from the Bulls 20 years beforehand. They won a premiership, made grand finals and prelims. 15 years of sustained success. Never fallen off a cliff despite all the “pundits” saying it would happen every year. I’m no Geelong fan but, I’d take that and happily rebuild. They happen quickly these days with the right plan and staff in place.

Im only commenting on Scott’s coaching, this being his 11th season, who knows, they might win it this year, but I doubt that.

My assumption is, the Cats were a bit stale under Bomber in 2010, needed a fresh voice, they got it and won in 2011, they have had a very good list ever since, they play a brand of football that gets found out in finals, yet every year, they think something will magically change and they will pinch one.

The Cats should have done to Scott what they did to Thompson, get a new voice, fresh ideas.

It would be easy to say that the side he coached to a flag wasn’t his and it was Thompson’s, but he still won the GF, I’m not saying he isn’t a good coach, I just don’t think they are building a premiership winning team or game style and his methods don’t do well in finals.

From what we know my assumption is that Clarko and Cook are the expected duo until anything comes out to the contrary/either camp come out and reject this publicly themselves which has not occurred. The issue with tightening up leaks is the press has to just make sh*t up to window dress their narrative.
How do you know that Garters?
Do you have a source too?
No 'source' per se. A mate of mine I work with is heavily involved with a number of people at Collingwood. Was on a work call with him last night. We were chatting about all things Blues/Pies. He asked what I thought of Clarko coaching. He mentioned it had been raised on numerous fronts with conversations he had had and that negotiations are in full swing.

To my message, it is only my assumption as stated, however to me the silence is deafening regarding categorical rejections from both Cook and Clarkson (since Clarksons mgmt gave a half arsed "he wants to travel" poor choice of reasoning given global lockdown!) None of that has stacked up. There has been no subsequent clarification / reinforcement of that from Clarko/mgmt. He has disappeared from public view. There seems there are discussions going on of some sort and nothing has been leaked in any great capacity to this point.
If we have to wait till Cook finishes up with Geelong it will have to continue to be radio silence. Geelong have already moved Cook on so he is well in scope. If he was not in the running for the job he would have just flat out said no rather than have continual harassment by the press providing a 'no comment' response. If I was a betting man I would put money on Clarko / Cook being the club's base case and it continues to remain as such.
Time will tell.
 
If it quacks like a duck it’s a duck... Clarko ain’t coming. But I will say it’s odd that he wants to take a year off to spend time with family and be around whilst his kid does year 12. Next minute he wants ditch the kid stuck doing year 12 and go to a USA or Europe to spend time himself doing courses and studying to come back and hope he’ll get a head gig opportunity immediately.

Clarko is a smart dude - doesn’t want to be in VIC lockdown for another year..................
 
I mean, great info in new rumour file
But
"Won't let Clarko walk away from this"?
:eek:
Puts a sinister take on Godfather Offer
I am hiding in my stable right now, but it's more likely Clarkson will wake up with a guitar head in the bed than mine.

This doesn’t sound right. I’m outside of Australia (in NYC) and things are pretty much normal and people traveling and flights are full etc. You can watch Broadway shows, go out for dinner, go to sports stadiums etc. Friends are traveling to Europe for vacations etc. I’ve been doing work trips across the country. Either Clarkson has absolutely no idea what’s going on outside of Australia or this statement is false.
