I don't think there'd be that many unhappy campers, put it that way.

There'll be a few calls of favouritism given Sticks (especially) and Gleeson being on the selection panel. But it's clear from where I sit that already Ratten is giving the supporters more hope, and with that I assume the players are picking up on that too. Certainly appears that way on the field.

As I was saying earlier in this thread, I didnt like the fact that we employed old Carlton tactics in selecting our coach.
I would have liked Gerard Healy and Robert Walls to have given their opinion on prospective candiates- perhaps ranked them in a number of areas out of 10, and then chosen a coach with this in mind.

I dont care about a 5 month PR driven process, but I wanted a wider range of opinions sought then merely Kernahan, Gleeson Swann and Icke.

In saying that, I love Ratts as a bloke and he has done a floorless job so far- so lets hope the right choice was made.

forget to mention a congrats.

good decision, lets just hope he gets a great team around him and never look back.
