David Teague appointed Carlton coach

[F_therest]

So the players were told yesterday. Why didn’t Carlton arrange a media conference and announce it straight after. Lucky they aren’t registered on the stock market ..... members are sort of like shareholders aren’t they!

The articles i read say they were told tonight

Not to mention our style of play has completely changed...just a nuffie comment by nut to take an uneducated pot shot at Carlton.

From 1-10 this season to 5-4, with 2 losses by under a goal and the other 2 by 4 goals to the premiership favourites WC & Richmond...that's a pretty good form line.

I suppose the question is why weren’t those changes made under Bolton?
Was Bolton too pig headed? Or were the rest of the football department happy to see him fail?

Brad Scott left out in the cold

He still gets his $800k next year and apparently might get a job connected to the AFL. I think he'll be fine.

Stubborn coach unfortunately...overruled his assistants and didn't take their ideas on.

In all seriousness when has a recycled senior coach had success? Besides Malthouse after 11 years it’s surely a completely flawed theory to head hunt a coach

It’s a real follow the trend business. After Dimma’s success it was hang to your coach and sack your assistants, but after Shaw’s fine efforts they fell like 9 pins.

Unless the greater aspiration is to continue his AFL coaching career at another club which he has alluded to a number of times

North the big losers. Need Brad to get the Saints job or they are out 800k next year.

 

[Jeremias]

Good on him.

Could hardly have been more impressive through his audition.

Afl will bail them out, what’s it matter

Well done to him. Good to see Carlton on the up again and I'm not sure why but I like him.

Yes as freo supporter I wanted to see Carlton get Ross in instead so I could watch the world burn.

Oh well.

 

[The Warlord]

More and more likely Brad ends up a Bomber.

 

[The Warlord]

Could be the first year in a while that the Roos won't be in a position to make a million dollar offer to a free agent that won't come anyway - $800,000 will be wasted on an ex Coach who's probably earning almost as much working in the media or for the AFL.

Yeah if he gets a job with the AFL or in the media we don't have to pay that amount.

 

[Established1870]

I don't think the fanbase would have copped having Ross Lyon or Cuddly Ken Hinkley as senior coach.

Could you have at least tried?

 

[blckcaviar]

One thing I realised today, I'm officially sick of the term Teague Train

You actually don't know how it works do you?

 

[beaglebombs]

Looked out of his depth Sunday.

Really? please explain!

 

[Power Raid]

A great decision Carlton

Can you still pursue Ken as an assistant though?

 

[dean33]

Tigers form has been good and with a minute to go we were 16pts down...

If that’s out of ones depth what’s your thoughts on the coaches of the teams in that list?

You know you’re going well when beating a team by 5 goals compels them to sign up their coach.

 

[Corkintheocean]

Can't help but think some new coach bump, positive variance has shone the lightly favourably on the three assistants. Can't help but think if Ratten is also hired, all three clubs will still be in the bottom 6 next year.

Sounds like Richmond before the 2016 review.....

 

[demondavey]

Makes Chris Judd's comments looking fairly silly. Prehaps next time he will stay quiet.

Can not stand Judd. The most arrogant and self absorbed flog in any AFL circle.

100% back this up

 

[demondavey]

I honestly don’t know why he’s involve with the Carlton board

He only looks after himself

First rate flog. Absolute first rate campaigner.

 

[beaglebombs]

Well done CFC for learning with the Ratte V Malthouse experiment! Congrats to Teaguey... i'm sure they'll be playing for you and thats pretty important!
