Finally, a Carlton person On The Couch.

Hopefully the tough questions are asked.

these blokes very rarely ask the really tough questions.

even Wallsy backed off on Ratts the other week on OWAAT after delivering a massive opening spray about the state of the blues. I really thought Walls was going to go through him, but I think Ratts managed to bamboozle him with some awesome stats

I like the stats. Find them interesting.........................but i do know Ratts only rattles them off to kill time. Cant imagine doing media would be a part of the coaching job any coach likes.

I will watch but know i will get nothing out of it apart from an insight into what stats are measured at football clubs.

Ratts will not be sacked, unless somehow Kernahan get sacked or steps down within the next 24 hours.

Ratten seems to have a lot of mates in the media - will Sheehan, Hird and Healy ask the hard questions tomorrow?

Watch OTC religiously. Hope they go hard tomorrow and not tread lightly like OWAAT did the other week.

What I want Ratts to say.

"I gave it my best, I will now be in the process finding a new coach and I will be more than happy to assist him"

Even if they ask the hard questions he'll deflect with stats and the young side that needs time BS.

I hope we get reamed in the media this week. Surely it's time.

would somebody at Fox please put a "coaching for dummies" book on the coffee table there for Rats please. All us paying foxtel supporters would be greatly appreciative.

Don't hold your breath.

It'll be a 'puff piece'

would love it if one of them brings up the fact we've kicked about 5 quarters in our last 5 first quarters.

My first question.......'Brett your season has spiralled out of control. Despite getting plenty of the ball your side cannot score and have been uncompetitive even against apparent inferior sides. It would also appear you've lost the players judging by recent heartless and spineless performances. Why should you still be senior coach of the Blues?

Pity Mark Maclure isn't host of On The Couch - he didn't hold back last week on AFL 360 - reckons Carlton needs to send Ratten on a man management course - read between the lines...

They better not go soft on him. This "regaining confidence" crap shouldn't be tolerated. I didn't see too much confidence on display in what was a pretty average second half of footy.

Judd aside - not many seem to hurt too much after a loss. Then you have that tool Tim Gossage on SEN say "I know Judd isn't too happy at Carlton at present"
