Voss named new Carlton coach




Feel both pleased and sorry for him, effectively won the position by default.

Knew if he didn't put his hand up then his chances of being a head coach at top level are probably over.

Hope he goes well, deserved better than what he received as coach of the Lions - the appointment of Cook in the background may provide the stability he will need.


Expecting Carlton to assume a greater identity around run and rebound and position their defence much further up the ground as a result of his appointment.


On past history the coming trade period could be livened up as a result of this as well.

No wonder ole shifty eyes stepped out of the running. Misheard Carlton insiders saying the they were dead keen for "The Voss" to have another run at head coaching.
Already made that joke

That's 2 down. half a dozen more on the band wagon and we got a new board meme.
 
There is a certain irony that on the very same day that Carlton start a new era under Voss as Coach, that the former President who started their demise John Elliot dies.

Fair to say that Carlton starts a new chapter today in more ways than one..
 
Watching the SANFL prelim on TV tonight* and good grief is this Horne-Francis kid going to be a gun. This is still a decent competition with mature bodies.

*my Friday nights are :fire:


J H-F 24 possessions and kicking 3 goals 3 points, impressive game from the young fella

Also looked like Mitch O'Neill had a pretty good game as well.

Matty Roberts 2 goals 1, from 10 possessions was also opportunist from limited touches.

2 of those JHF points hit the post too.

Matt Allen had 20 touches too.

Just reading Fyfes interview from the other day

"I’ll play where I’m required to play and give our club the best chance of playing September action, but by the same token I’ve spent 12 years on my craft of becoming a really high-quality midfielder, and that’s where I play my best footy"

Who talks about themself like that. Why not just say becoming the best midfielder I could be or something along those lines.

Yup, Fyfe does, in my opinion, have some clumsy wordage.

Not sure if it’s ego or ‘carelessness’ - whichever, it does have some FIGJAM about it.

Yeah but he has won what, 2 Brownlows playing as a midfielder? If that's not 'high-quality' then I don't know what is. I think he deserves the right to call himself high quality at the very least.

He should have been rubbed out for one of them making Priddis a back to back brownlow winner. Got off at least twice too many times to be eligible for the brownlow under the tribunal rules that year.

Yeah maybe but he was eligible under the rules (which were changed to stop him from losing a Brownlow through disqualification I might add...) so it is what it is.

I mean, enough of our supporters were pissed that Priddis won one Brownlow, imagine if he was a dual medallist? :tearsofjoy:
