When will the Carlton FC Arrive? Part 2

If it compromises the ~ $450k he gets from Hawthorn for doing whatever else he wants, why would he feel particularly compelled?

Best case scenario for the AFL is Clarkson going to Gold Coast at the end of 2022.
I'm sure the money factor can be some thing of a compromise from all parties if its coming down to that.
I would suggest its more about what's best for Clarkson - as we have seen thus far.
 
As it states in the article...to take time to study - since this article went live he has found out he didn't make it into the course he wanted....so what happens now?
I can see Clarko checking the mail at home.

“Hey Caryn. I just heard back….didn’t get that course position…….**** it, I might coach Carlton”.

There’s another path on the cards.

Whoever gets the gig is laughing if the rumours about Scarlett and Nigel Lappin making the move is true. It's taken them 2 rookie coaches with next to no experienced, highly rated assistants to work with before realising having decent support in place is the way to go. Sadly they destroyed any chance of Bolton or Teague ever getting another crack in the process, given how both seemed to have suffered mentally in the latter stages.
Wouldn't the new coach select their own Assistants?
 
Way way way back, my preferences were :

First Line : Lyon, Clarkson

Second Line : Pyke, Voss

My issues with with the second line guys were the training camp for Pyke and whether Voss had learnt from his errors at Brisbane & matured as a coach.

The rumours that Voss has the job don't phase me at all, reckon he deserves another crack at it. Thing is, he ticks the one box that the remaining candidates don't and that is he has previous senior experience.

Hard at it as a player, hard trainer, premiership captain & onfield leader. Has all the characteristics we desperately need right now and his no-nonsense approach should get more out of our mollycoddled players.

Add in ex-team-mate Luke Power who is already at the club and the proforma is starting to take shape.

Nigel Lappin & Mathew Scarlett are "supposedly"in the mix to join too and no-one would question the way they played the game either.

I'm not popping champagne corks just yet but I am more than comfortable with the way it may pan out as is being reported in the media.
 
Carlton's coaching search is kind of like when you're at the nightclub, the bartender's called last drinks, and you're that legless that anything you take home can sensibly be blamed on alcohol.

If they can sign anyone, they should.

I screen capped that to send to the club. They’ve been hanging out for some advice from BigFooty member Toump Ass .

Given they’ve secured the signature of Brian Cook I feel that that will provide a lot of confidence and professionalism within the club. He will no doubt be very rigorous in his approach to not just get the right coach but get the right people employed within the football department and holistically through the organisation.
 
Voss over Lyon? Really. What a shambles
Nah Voss went through the “process” but Ross wasn’t prepared to. Clarko isn’t prepared to do anything but he’s still the first choice so hopefully Voss can wait on hold for a few weeks. Simple. 👍

FFS ............... Clarkson has never ever been a realistic candidate for anyone !!!

The only people who keep suggesting we are chasing Clarkson are a handful of journos and the numpties on BigFooty.

If he actually was available AND we did land him, you'd still find a reason to shitcan the appointment.

Probably. But it would go against everything Ive learnt on here to show rational commendation. ;)
