Clarkson confirmed on fox footy that he is taking a year off.

I think if you have to beg someone to coach us it’s the wrong person.

Agree.

Now it’s time to get some quality assistants.

Just reading between the lines, I got the impression Clarko would have been keen next year if we waited.

As Tom Morris just said, we have gone for Voss because of his 5 years at Brisbane. Essentially Voss is Steve Bradbury, last experienced coach standing. Saving face after what we said after sacking Teague. First timers were always going to be interviewed so there was the look of a process but they were never getting the job. Kingsley apparently interviewed terrifically but we went with Voss because he had coached before. Never mind the fact he set Brisbane back years, he was "experienced". Voss will need a good first year or the teeth gnashing will be something given Clarko would likely be available.

All we can do is support him. I shall be no matter what (not that I have a choice...haha). You always support your own and give them a chance to prove themselves. That's important too.

If we believe the club are running a tighter ship on leaks, surely that also applies to all ‘stories’

You only need to scroll back a couple of pages on that big footy thread to see that most of them get more wrong than they get right, even the most respected ITK’s.

Move on from Clarko enough

Get process done and get coach and assistant coaches on board for trade /draft period and get ready for a huge preseason for our squad

Ollie Wines on Michael Voss: "I don't think I've met a person more motivating than Vossy. He's run our resilience & leadership program over the past 12-18 months & what he's done with our group & the connection & trust he's built within that playing group is enormous."

Huge endorsement.

Connection. Trust. Resilience. Leadership.

Sounds like qualities we could do with.

I just hope we dont get desperate enough to call Ross Lyon and just give him the job now.

Says a lot where he feels entitled to not present for a job. Red Flags I think. He is too arrogant.

Give Voss credit, he gets knocked down but keeps on trying.

Good role model I reckon.

There are no guarantees with anyone we get . Everything needs to click.

THIS.
The man has a winners mentality.
He'll be far better prepared this time

I hope he will do wonders with our midfield too. Someone like Cripps, Walsh and Dow will really have the ultimate midfielder to learn from. Maybe he may put Stocker in the midfield. They both have gigantic thighs. Haha.

I am getting behind this selection now so I hope it does happen.

I dont want Lyon as the head coach. Unless he comes on as a mentor to Voss that is. Now that would be ideal.

+1

Absolutely agree , hopefully Sayers put a stroke through his name a while ago , all the Media & supporter speculation is ridiculous , he either commits to the CFC or we move and forget about him.

Was a great interview on 360.

Clarkson was given the mic to say it as it is.

He said he respects Carlton and Collingwood as the power houses they are.

What a great opportunity to go for the job to see if the powers to be would pick him for the Head coach role.

He has a family commitment to plan the next phase of their life. He doesn't know if he's got the energy to coach in top gear.

That's a good enough reason to say I'm glad he didn't take the job.

What Clarko said doesn't give any of the made up negative Carlton headlines any life.

Sayers doesn't give up. He's a beauty.

Agreed.

If the rumours of lappin and Scarlett are true as well then I'm on the Voss the boss plane

Precisely and a champion of the game , strong character with coaching experience Voss can’t possibly be worst than our previous scenario.

Agreed bondi. And Clarkson's interview on 360 also ties in with your earlier post about him being a stubborn bugger and wanting to screw over Kennett (to be fair, who doesn't!).

Really respect you as a poster, but your disdain for Sayers and the sacking of Teague is the only thing I get from you recent posts.

Voss hasn't even set foot in Melbourne. You're parroting the media headlines as facts. Voss hasn't got the job. Fact. Kingsley not out of the race. Fact.

Clarko doesn't even know if he has what it takes to go full on as Head Coach now, and also said he may find he will never have the energy or desire to give the job 100%

Steve Bradbury...why don't you just say, its your personal view that its a Steve Bradbury because you hate what happened to Teague and hate Voss because Teague in your opinion is a better coach than Voss.

And I would ask you, how do you know that? I would add to remind you Voss took a team to Finals. Voss is no longer on Training Wheels. He's been sharpening his sword for the last 7 years. Read what the Port players say about him.

Lastly I would say, I'm glad Ive seen the back of Teague's gift and the embarrassing situation where his team couldn't defend, and in the end became a divisive figure, and a weekly target for his lack of defensive mindset...not finals footy game plan. Judd was right about Teague being on training wheels.

Thank god Teague isn't practising to learn the craft of coaching a team next year. We are not a play thing.

Get over Teague jimmy. Its a new era.
