Which AFL coach should be the next to go?

Told ya

Lions Home Games: Eagles, Power, Pies, Swans, Crows, Hawks. 4 top 8 sides and 2 perennial finalists. All easy huh?

Jasper would be glad to have a gig at all and Jarred is so busy counting his piles of cash he may not have noticed there was a change of coach.

Nathan Basset no way. Port should get rid of him and Ken and Voss. Schoffield can then pick his own team of assistants.

"Carlton's money funding the Pies' next De Goey signing' This statement is false. The soft cap is football department spend only, player payments are not included. The soft cap only becomes an issue for the minnow clubs that cant afford the Tax, like North, Carlton have far more to lose by keeping the cancer that currently coaches the side.

So as a preliminary and semi didn't suit your opinion we are now averaging everything Sheesh. Essendon aren't an amazing list when daniher is not there, there are alot of alright players like Heppell that aren't superstars, just cast a critical eye and you'll see it so woosh is doing an alright job with what is available, I don't understand why ppl claiming to know footy are shocked with that list and injuries Essendon are just a middle road team like quite a few in the comp.

The 18th placed finish occurred because WC prioritised culture ahead of wins. Winning was not the priority back then. The club carried a dramatic cultural rebuild from the inside out. This is well documented and clearly the 18th place finish was due to these factors and is an outlier. His last season wasn’t good but he had major personal problems at home which I believe were significant contributing factors. Woosha kept telling people that the list was in great shape and that he was building a list and club that could contend for premierships and that’s exactly what has happened. If the Dons give him time and if he’s up for the task they will do well to stick with him. He’s not the best game day coach granted but he is a great leader of men. He took over a club in turmoil and he hasn’t had a straight crack at it. This seemed like the year and it is not over. We all saw how strongly they came home last year. Injuries haven’t helped.

I would not want Scott, Longmire, Hinkley, Lyon, Pyke, Bolton or Woosha coaching my team, i reckon there all finished. Probably chuck in Cameron, Richardson,Beverage and Goodwin as well.

We don't want him Pete, I'd prefer to keep Bolton

What about when my team loses and destroys me emotionally? That's the nature of the beast, we're emotionally attached to our clubs so when we feel someone is not doing the best that can be done we want accountability. Tough luck, you took the bucks now give me a premiership.

A lot of success

Hinkley will be gone if Port don't make the 8, our list profile is ready to go, we can't waste another year. I'm personally sick of watching him get out coached once his switch the ball plan doesn't work.

and this one time at band camp...

I've never heard more excuses for a team that's won 3 of their last 40-odd games. It's pathetic. Questions should be asked whenever a team has won less than 20 of their past 40 games. Carlton have lost 37.

Unless the Blues get in first and gazump you.

You reckon Fagan would do all the ground work then let a has-been like Brad Scott swan in to take all the glory like his brother did at Geelong? ????????????

I think there is something to your observation, but the appearance of not giving full effort comes from a lot of activity without direction. I see part of Carlton’s on field problems as being too many players trying to cover for others around them. Being third man in to assist is great when it works but creates a free man that good teams can exploit. I think this has been a factor in Carlton’s late game fades, then a couple of really poor games below their potential. At the moment the Blues need to play their own roles. Steven Covey spoke of the need to sharpen the saw to stay at your best, at the moment and for the last few seasons I feel a lot of Carlton’s best have been used relentlessly and unless their long term welfare is considered they will have short careers, or leave to go to clubs where they will not have such a high workload.

No, Menegola. He had chronic injuries. They recruit big blokes in the hope they come on. Meek might in 2 or 3 years...Jones won't.

Do you really want Scott ? What do you reckon JamesH ?

Don Freo- if you say they are not AFL level why did Freo recruit them? Menagola was not injured for three years, maybe one at the most, i think your getting him mixed up with Harley Bennell.
