Take a breath FFS. Is your full stop key broken?

we have a club with board members.. footy dept people etc who are the checks and balances.....

so is it not a club thats devoid of any common sense????

according to redback... he thinks so....

but then all it means is any argument he makes can be taken with a pinch of shit...

its a club problem....

nobody off the hook....
everybody is on the hook....
what needs to be put into perspective is this problem was before malthouse... which is why we got malthouse in the first place

this is not a 2 year thing in the making... lol
to pretend it is.. means u can fix it very quickly....

do you think we can fix the 2 year hiccup very soon cimmy???

I dont think Malthouse is the problem. The coach is the least of the issues. Infact given a half decent list he would deliver results. We are going that badly that we don't see, he is the best thing going for us. The core of the problem is the lack of football people on the board and a president who has vision to drive the club. The irony is the best recruiting of the last 15 years was done in the last 2 and that isnt saying much with questions over bokehurst at pick 19. The same people who wanted a change of culture are bemoaning the loss of Waite, Garlett and Robinson. The same people who didnt want us to hand out long term contracts criticise the loss of betts. In hindsight we should of kept him but he kicked 20 goals the year before and Thomas style was more of what we needed. Was the problem with the medical assessment. The same people who criticised our lack of 23 to 28 year old spend more time panning everitt, docherty etc instead of the root cause which was a bust on every draft from 2002 to 2011.

No synny.

Do you think your man is the best man for the job?

How would you rate his performance?

Best post I have read in this thread by far!!

Everyone is so blinded in their desire for immediate success that they want drastic action to be taken on the coach, I get that. But for the same people calling for Malthouse's head - when does it get to the point where history repeating itself is considered the worst way forward for the Club?

I, for one do not want another coach sacked until the Club agrees to do a full EOI and interview process with the best candidates in the Country, regardless of experience. Sacking Malthouse during this season will only force the Club to make another ill-fated decision on hiring whomever is available at the time. I can't handle seeing this happen again. It's like Groundhog Day.

jis performance is sub par... but the club is [REDACTED]!!!!

not his fault the club is [REDACTED]... its been [REDACTED] way before he got here...

im not sure what point youre trying to make..

... again......

..coaching can be improved with better assistants in my opinion.. ..the main reason why I have been a Malty fan over the years was more for is ability to nite and galvanise his playing group (oh, and giving it to the tiprat).. ....this is why I was happy we got him, and I would retain him if we could get better coaches around him.. ..keep working over the list until we rid ourselves of the soft lazy types.. ..quickly too, coz Murphy learnt off Stevens, Gibbs off Murphy, yarran off Gibbs, now Menzel is learning bad habits off yarran.. .... ..our most talented are also our softest and weakest..

MM picks his own assistants.

Not sure he'll accept any advice from Stewie Dew or similar.

..I have no problem with that, they all do.... ..but our choices are limited when our club is viewed as a basketcase.. ..we can't get any talent, on and off field, to want to come here in some numbers that gives us real choice..

he does and he doesnt...

my question to you people is this

whats mckays role at the club???

there are supposed to be checks and balances on the coach.... any good club would be set up like that...
mckay would usually be front and square in this role...

he seems to be very eunuch about his role
