Welcome Welcome back to Carlton Tim Clarke - Midfield Coach

[Juddalenko]

TBF, the Carlton Big Footy Board supporters have only recently discovered their abilities to recruit and rate prospective assistant coach appointments in the last week or two. Its a new phenomenon.

Admittedly, we were also too busy looking at green shoots…

 

[Arr0w]

So the last time he was at Carlton was 2018 as midfield coach.

We had 2 wins. A percentage of 59.

We had our youngest list, most injuries during the rebuild. Add to that, Bolton pumping games into young players over seasoned bodies.

Will keep banging on, it's more about the list rather than the priority of having the best coach/s available

Clarko in 2013-15, same coach last 2 year

 

[The Flying Doormat]

So, we got Clarko eventually.

 

[Dropagrogan]

Underwhelming really

Why is that, you know his skills well i presume. What does he lack?

Sounds like Cripps liked him at least.

And David Clarke’s brother.

I thought there was a sister too, that very good runner.
His Dad wore 26 for us. Very unlucky not to play in 1982 grand final but list was so strong someone had to miss out.

 

[DEliades]

A few of you must have worked closely with him at Gold Coast to have such great insights. Lol

 

[Sin City]

yeah Georgie, she was very talented. Especially as a junior.

Observation of the team and midfield can give some insight mate. Cool your jets.

Some insight yes..

But first hand knowledge, observation and input from other Coaches/key people like Diesel/Cook/Voss, an interview process, references from other quality football people surely provides greater insight than watching on TV or from the rafters..

Surely?

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

Some insight, not much, not enough to pop off like they KNOW it's a not a good signing.

Yup also very valid. I actually didn't say anything negative about the signing and wish him all the best.

I'm glad we have an experienced coach who has familiarity with some of our players but also a taste of how other clubs do it.

I also think for the personnel they have, GCS midfield functioned very well, their 2021 season as a whole was underrated.

I was just calling out the snide remarks from that flog who insinuated people can't have an opinion because they weren't on the GCS staff. Give us a break!

Maybe he was responsible for those two wins. Thank god he was there then !

 

[Accidental genius]

Welcome back Tim! To be real with you, I did not realise you were here the first time!

+1

 

[Zlatan]

or gee wizz, these guys perform well in their roles? you know, the ones they haven't begun yet?

Lets hope so.

I’ve told you previously KP “don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story“...............

's diet plan with him! Welcome back.

 

[Schrempfian]

This guy hasn't won a brownlow, therefore must be a terrible midfield coach

 

[PumpyChowdown]

Whelmed, of the under variety.

Regardless, welcome back Tim.

Be awesome.

Please.

Pffft... As if Gerard Healy would know more than the everyday BigFooty punter..

Yeah Gerard Healy has gone a bit mad recently. We all go a little mad sometimes... damn it thats the wrong Psycho movie.

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]
