who would you rather be today? Malthouse or Leppsitch?

[thurmanmunson]

No, just journalists who whinge because Malthouse is supposedly 'disrespectful' to those who ask moronic questions in press conferences. He doesn't like doing those stupid conferences (which are boring and a waste of time when other coaches apart from Malthouse do them, ironically) so they should just STFY and report what he says.

Malthouse is passed it... holding onto the coat tales of past success. 2010 flag was helped by the draw/replay rule.

I didn't have much confidence in him to turn things around at Carlton 2 years ago and I still don't.

Leppa - if I were Malthouse, I'd be a self-obsessed, narcissistic, bitter curmudgeon. On the plus side, I'd have plenty of paintings of myself to admire at home.

 

[Chaisa]

Leppa definitely. Far more expectations at Carlton than Brisbane. At least with Brisbane they're still rebuilding. Carlton still seem to think they can win a flag.

The Lions know they are shit and are going to have a bad two or three years

Leppa has time to turn the club around if he's good enough

Agree to disagree on Rockliff.

I would say Kennedy and Mackenzie are elite players. Kennedy showed last year how good he is when fit with deplorable service. Mackenzie I would definitely argue is in the top handful of players in his position across the league. These guys are easily ranked 1 and 2 if you asked me to rate our entire list.

Shuey has a long way to go - B+ I would agree with. Darling and Naitanui are two other players I would suggest could get there in 2-3 years. There is also a bit of hype around Dom Sheed projecting that high one day.

But this isn't a Brisbane v WC argument, I merely think your definition of 'elite' is too lenient.

Mackenzie elite?

No sale.
