Haha yes. Resets his win/loss ratio!

Unfortunately my phone doesn't think 'Cloke' is a word. Hope it doesn't need to learn it...

Media don't want to report the news, they want to make the news.

now with social media and the interweb, they have to make calls early to be the one who "breaks" the top story.

The club didn't leak it. Other side of the fence did. I don't blame him for why either.

Yep, so as much as the club is trying to do the right thing, the media are driving the agenda, as they always will when there's a coach in danger of losing his job.

Which brings us back to hoping the Media/Communications strategists at the club are included in the Ihatethatwordreview.

Oh well, that's what they took on when they appointed him.

Maybe I'm wrong but I can't blame the Board and the Club trying to make the best of a bad situation for a club legend.
Ratts knows he's gone, and so does the football world. Jay Clark and the other vultures should get a life.

Then somebody from Carlton should have knocked it on the head with some authority. Why hasn't Swan walked out to the media pack and told them to flower off?


Kernahan did just that and they've announced a press conference for 9.30 tomorrow to clarify Ratten's position.
Jay Clark is guessing and it's getting too much oxygen.
