Sack Voss and get who?
That boat has sailed.

Lyons team looked like crap and lost to hawks.
Won 3 of their last 7, and were lucky to beat Carlton (and we played crap and, surprise, we missed easy shots and should ve won), and Giants and beat a depleted North by only 30 points.

What's so amazing about Lyon?
What's so amazing about?
What about Stocker? did he look better than when at Carlton? Look like a first rounder?
Grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.

If this is pure recreation, we are COOKED as a club.

Unless you're saying our list is as bad the aints, you argument falls over very quickly.
I believe (and I think you do too) that our list is better than what is has shown and certainly better then the aints list.
The aints aren't the benchmark for us. If they are, we can't hand those keys back in quick enough.

For the record, I am not in the sack Voss camp though at same time I wouldn't bat an eyelid if we did.
Much rather we get him assistants that can actually help him. Some of our senior players need to be told in no uncertain terms, that this is a team sport and if they aren't willing to make sacrifices to make the team and their teammates better, they have no place at our club.
Damien and Richmond turned it around not only because he was willing to embrace change, but his senior players were too. They understood that individual brilliance could only take them so far. For example, Jack Riewoldt understood he could have a greater influence on the outcome of games if he brought his teammates into the game more. It wasn't about him kicking 5+. Some of our places need to change their mindset to that way of thinking.

No, I didnt say anything of the sort.

I'm looking at and discussing Mathiesons Messiah Lyon and what his team to do. They are losing games too.

I know that Vossy is a great leader and man manger. Harry has said that Vossy is such a great motivator you want to run through brick walls for him.

Nah, Vossy isnt the problem. he's not the one missing handballs, kicks and shots at goal. Nothing to do with the game plan.
If players want to execute their kicking and handball well, they can, if they are proud enough to do so.

As for list. Yes we have more first round inside mids than we can poke a stick at. So many that we give the peripheral ones like SPS Stocker and setters for nothing. Where's the outside run to help with clearances to give us run? Hello SOS? Cerra traded in for a first rounder. Walsh is a No 1 pick. Saad traded in for a first rounder. The list lacks a few things. I dont give a rats about Saints list because I cant change it.

I agree we need to play team footy and hurt the opposition like they go out to hurt us in this game of attrition. Its a brutal game, and we need bruted playing. Our midgets in the forwardline dont have any hurt factor because they are young and developing, and arent ready yet for the big time, and may never be.

What was the last appointment the club got right? Certainly hasn’t been the coaches, the skippers haven’t been great, the presidents have been troubled (probably as a result of other things being poor)…even the fitness guru looks ordinary.

I do t think Voss can coach and I think Brad Lloyd is out of chances too. Not sure where to next

My thoughts too.

The question is does he listen and take feedback. You could have the best assistants in the game but if he’s too pigheaded to listen they are worthless

Pokies any day of the week.

Disgusting how we promote "Love the game not the odds" on social media, yet we turn a blind eye to the pokies because of the profits.

Just get rid of them once and for all ffs!

That's a good point. I made my comment and assume CK did too on the assumption that he is willing to take on feedback and accept he needs not so much more help, but the right type of help. I reckon he is but who knows.

Hi CK95,

I am writing to inform you that today the Carlton Football Club has accepted the resignation of Director Craig Mathieson.

Craig’s position as a Director would have become vacant at the end of 2024 due to him reaching his maximum term under the constitution.

His decision to resign means that the Club will now take counsel from its Independent Nominations Committee, to commence a thorough process for a Director replacement, based on the needs analysis of Board requirements and relevant skill sets.

Craig served on the Carlton Board since 2012 and we thank him for his extensive contribution to the football club throughout those 11 years of service.

I also would like to take this time to reinforce what I stated last week.

We will judge our 2023 season at the end of the year, in its totality.

Football clubs are defined by their moments of adversity and I can guarantee we will handle ours with a level-headed professionalism that Carlton people should expect.

Take care of yourselves and each other this week Bluebaggers.

I can’t wait to be with you at the ‘G on Friday night,


Luke Sayers
President

Member ID: 2908822

Craig Mathieson had heated discussions with Carlton president Luke Sayers in the rooms in Sydney post game.

It was a verbal altercation.

President Luke Sayers considered it below professional standards of what is expected, which has led to Mathieson departing.

No. I think our list is built for the wrong game plan. My concern coming into the season was that "bulls at the stoppage and two Coleman forwards" was the answer and that clearly doesn't work.



Sure. But think about your time playing sport. That's as much player driven as it is coaches. The leadership group should drive a team first mentality. Video reviews should also highlight that. It's almost as if you need to throw away the playbook now. In footy, you either have the ball or you don't. I'm actually a bit more worried how we look when we don't have it. There doesn't seem to be a plan around this.

Does he mean Stadio Olimpico, the Colloseum or the MCG?

Maybe he's scouting for some untapped talent... aerobic beasts for two way run...

Derek Gee has some serious upside
