You don't get it I'm not disagreeing with development that's blatantly obvious.
Every decision malthouse has made from picking and parading the leadership contenders to the match day squads has been wrong.
I was never a huge Ratten supporter and for an experienced coach like malthouse he has made the same mistakes come structurally with his set up and game plan to picking teams and disciplining and teaching the players.
Ratts profiled what players he wanted...
It's his list!
He even signed hacks onto long term contracts.
He had no direction over recruiting for the modern game.
It was all about building a twenty man defence and give it to the champ. Lol
Laughable!
Where are our mids? Curnow Bell Cachia ellard?
Ratten was criticised for limited game time for subs and then immediately dropping them, Malthouse has done the same.
Ratten played defensively and was criticised and so has Malthouse with even more taggers boundary line game plan.
Ratten picked injured and under done players and was criticised and so has Malthouse.
Ratten was criticised for not dropping out of form players and playing them on reputation so has Malthouse.
Ratten was criticised for playing Henderson in the backline, three rucks, wrong players set ups and unbalanced teams so has Malthouse.
No direction forward and unstructured defence.
We have looked good on occasion because of individual effort and brilliance nothing more and the lack of opposition.
Our mids are playing forward and we have the taggers in the middle and Gibbs starting outside the square on most occasions.
What happens when Geelong, Hawthorn, Collingwood need to fight back the ascendency?
Who have they got in the middle and what set up have they got?
