When are SOS and Judd going?

Be interesting to hear them justify their positions in coming days

 

[The Warlord]

He is nowhere the dud everyone thinks he is. Been pretty good since coming back in to the team.

Who would he replace in your mob?

 

[Satan]

Carro will shoot a few arrows tonight

 

[Supercoach Bargain]

Isn't this normal?

Normal over time, yes. Sacking all of them and being no better off, arguably worse off? Not normal.
When a club is as bad as they were yesterday, one change is not going to fix it.

[MinerBoy]

No surprise really.

 

[Great8]

Are Dodoro and Silvagni tied up with same mafia family?
Both are untouchable

There was a brighter era when Ratten was coach. Obviously sacking him after one below average season was a mistake.

And the basket case club continues on its merry way, Carlton is ****ed for at least the next 5 years as a new coach comes in and undoes any good Bolton did in order to put “his own stamp on the club”.

 

[Kingtriton]

This is horrendous.... Bolton had the relationships and trust of the players..... he was/is the BEST option going forward...... you’ve just lost a faithful Carlton Member...... never again, I won’t even drive through Carlton anymore.... can’t wait to hear how much you fail now!!!

 

[Echoes]

SOS and CO look like buffoons in this, giving up pick 1 .

Fat Guts - “Oh but you should see him kick on the left foot...that Ballarat wind just wasn’t doing him any favours”

 

[RAPPA]

He came across as a genuinely nice bloke that was big on cultivating the kids. Neil Craig going and not being replaced really stung him as was evident with the win-loss count since Craig left. Aligned with poor assistant coaches and a distinct lack of decent mature bodies, including a midfield held together by a 24 year old with a bunch of kids. That the spotlight isn’t also on the rubbish assistant coaches is beyond me

 

[B4Bear]

I think this knifing of the coach when they said they wouldn't knife him is totally OUT OF CHARACTER for Chris, like when he slipped out of character to wrench Leigh Adams shoulder from its socket, go the pressure points, elbow that bloke in the face etc etc.

Absolutely this. Bet he wasn't the one who delivered the news either; absolute dog.

 

[Plugger35]

I'd imagine Brad Scott will be waiting anxiously by the phone, wouldn't be surprised if he gets the job or is at least spoken to by the Carlton head honchos.

It could be a poisoned chalice though with how bad Carlton are going at the moment.

 

[1970crow]

They have the worst list manager in the league. Lol at sacking the coach instead

SOS definitely stuffed up their experience profile. Needed a few overpaid mature role players to help the kids out. Bolton had no hope.

 

[Satan]

Hirdy available ?

 

[joff]

Bloody shame they will only improve from someone else

 

[Lach72]

Waiting for Lloyd to sort out Silvagni now

Have to appoint Brett Ratten as senior coach now, he was treated very poorly and deserves another chance.

Further evidence that you need an experienced AFL coach (that isn't finished like Malthouse) to get you off the very bottom of the ladder. They don't need to be your next premiership coach, just a stepping stone. The NBA does this well.

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

More round 1 picks than anyone in history and still look rubbish.

What a failure of a coach.

 

[Jen2310]

It's not just the coach. They need a whole review of the football department. Just changing the coach hasn't worked the last few years. It needs to start from the top.

 

[Joao]

Feel like this will be a McCartney situation all over again. List isn't that bad, its just not ready. Somebody else could take over and win 10 games next year and be lauded as a genius.
