Sayers said this morning that he'll be on the phone to prospective candidates today

Looking forward to seeing our potential realised.

When we appointed Bolts, if memory serves, we interviewed a couple of others. But it seemed at the time they were a bit Clayton's-ish

Why do I get the feeling we're going down the same road with Ross

We had Malthouse for that sadly.

But, yes, they do need to learn to bleed for the club or flip burgers.

Sacking Ratten for Malthouse really bit us so badly on the arse given what has happened since. Never has one sacking bitten anyone so badly.

if Ross is going to get coaching gig ,what about assistants do they go threw an interview process or who ever is senior coach just chooses.

Newsflash. Afl head coach role not particularly secure job opportunity.

This board is a farce and has been for over a decade same mistakes will be repeated - it's just the boards culture

Turnover of presidents and 4 board members (half the board), external independent review found your boy not up to it (in addition to 3 assistants), and he telegraphed the same outcome weeks before it was completed through his victim tantrums.

Cope.

Bolton we did run a process but we didn’t get many applicants at all because the job was so difficult. Just Barker and Bolton the two serious candidates. Maybe Simon Lloyd too.

We asked Fagan and Dew to apply but both declined. Fagan actually said once he knocked us back he started to have regrets and so he took the opportunity with Brisbane the very next year when it came around. Sliding doors.

With Teague the process was a sham though. Interviewed Voss which didn’t go well then Teague won 5/7 to start with and we gave it to him.


Hopefully with Lyon it’s a mix of both. Get some candidates to pitch the presentation ideally Lyon, Buckley, Scott, Pyke and then make a selection from there with an open mind rather than ‘it’s Ross’ to lose’

I don't actually believe it's a fait accompli that Lyon has the gig - he may well get it in the end but I honestly believe there's a solid handful of worthy candidates...almost want someone else to get the job just to shut down the crystal ball nuffies and push them back to pontificating on Covid conspiracies instead of Carlton ones

I didn't realise Voss has been with Port since 2014. Hinkley doesn't suffer fools so he must rate Voss. I wonder how Voss would go as Lyons assistant.

Port is one of the most hard at it teams under Hinkley in the AFL and that's how Voss played.

Lyon, Voss, Soloman, Power and Bruce would make for an interesting mix. Surely that lot could get some ticker into those that are lacking.

Just spit balling, lets face it, I've got no idea about anyone.

I agree Cazz Voss would be good in my view as an assistant and has a good reputation given his work at Port

Blues have always been a fan of Voss as a coach for some reason

Just one thing and one thing only ......... Let's do this properly

Funny pattern isn't it..

I don't think anyone can predict the success or failure of the next coach, and I don't think the Board got the right man for the time, or, the list wasn't mature enough or deep enough to withstand the plethora of injuries Carlton had this year.

I reckon yesterday's Presser with Sayers and Liddle set the tone for a different Carlton, fully well knowing other than marchbank and cuningham, there will be a full list to pick from, another preseason under the players' belt and probably 2-3 new senior players.

The ducks are lining up, even for this Board.

Elliot started this mess. Thank god he's gone.

....we've got a very good, long-term spine.. ....load up on onballers, and demand 100% every quarter of every game.. ....and never back down from the contest or confrontation..

..I believe our list has under performed, even taking into account the injuries.. ....hard nosed coaches, hard nose leaders..

..and a core of footballers driving on field tactics, athletes play the fringes.. ....and swap mensa game plans for fanatical pressure..

Probably because he grew up playing for the blues as did Lyon

We love our own until they’re no good anymore

We've been sacking coaches ever since I can remember... it's in our DNA

A part of me was hoping we'd find another way this time around... may have been an unpopular decision but stick by Teague and improve the people around him... be brave... at least for another year and see what happens.

I don't know if Teague was/is the right coach... but I do know I have no faith in this clubs 'process' and decision making...
