Posters on here, as well as crane6 on bigfooty were posting on Thursday night that the Malthouse deal was done.

Friday morning Keenan goes on gossip radio stating that an influential Carlton person told him that we're after Thompson.

Why would you tell Crackers of all people information that if true you would surely want kept in house?

Gut feel is BS/smokescreen. Malthouse as Synners puts it "doesn't want to be seen as the other woman". Puts media of the scent, and makes it look like we are searching hard and wide for a Ratten replacement rather than just tossing him aside due to the fact we found out MM was available.

Mick has gone from "no comment", to "never say never, but its more than likely closer to never" to "I'll consider a Melbourne base club, who is not beginning a rebuild".

Reckon its all part of the dance, to avoid the Fremantle/Lyon, Essendon*/Hird/Thompson scenarios from previous years.

Rumor to Ratten has agreed to step down, rather than go out swinging would also make the transitions (in the media and public eye) a lot smoother.

"They're [REDACTED]'

Hopefully Ratten keeps focused during these next few weeks with all these rumours and inuendo flying, wins all the outstanding games and gets us into the 8. Will be interesting to see how it's handled if we win a final or 2 as well.......
I know his up against it and even I admit he did lose it towards the middle part of year with some of this moves/selections but I still don't know what else he could do with the way the injuries all fell.
I do feel for a true Carlton man but I'm sure that mean jack to some in here who always put the club first - apparantely!

I think it is fair to say he did lose it for a bit, and we struggled to adjust. No doubt injuries compounded this and made the adjustment harder. Most teams have a had period this year when they needed to adjust (Hawks, Pies, Roos, Cats, Dons), I mean Richmond smacked both Hawks and Swans! Their ability to adjust was aided by fullish and healthy lists.

Carlton man???

Hes a coach.... and a coach delivers or is out of a job.... if its just about him being a Carlton man...who put the club first........ he shouldnt accept a half a million in coin ...... he should do it for the love.. and say $60k.

Not sure why we have to worry that he is jack..... its a job ... and he lives and dies by his performances same as someone like Curnow....or Kerr.... ot thornton....
......or Fisher........

Don't feel sorry for him at all. Well paid and lucky to have the job at all. This true Carlton thing is BS. So what. Doesn't make them a coach.

There are some serious flower on this site who talk such shit that the mind boggles.

Such @#$%&! highbrow intellects should be in Canberra getting us out of the shit that we are in rather than wasting your talents on a pissy site like TC.

u seem to have a n acute negative psychological situation going on there....

and quite lowbrow your behaviour also...... if i may add....bogglymind...

Here's my take. Crackers spoke to a couple of mates who attended the Soirit of Carlton event last week. Those mates are aware of the MM appointment and chose to create a deflection using MT as the scapegoat.

So just Sticks to go then. !
