All good BV its a long way between Darwin and Melb

Just because we didnt do the classic process doesnt mean there hasnt been one. People behind the scenes would have been talking to people for the last 2 years.

Sticks is loyal and would want minimal to do with it but it still would have been happening.

I am not into a Malthouse appointment. Id even go untried before Malthouse.

I think Greg Swann has been talking to Malthouse's manager for 2 years.

Not sure we've talked to too many more than that.

I am sure Roos knows he is loved.

IMO, the only fair dinkum process is to throw it open to all applicants.
Approach blokes like Williams, Burns, Teague, Tudor etc etc and ask them to apply.
Short list to about 8 and interview them all.

Do you think thats happened? Not a hope in hell.
Anything else is lip service.

Yeh, maybe. Not sure he's heard from anyone at the club in an official capacity though.

Technically speaking Raheen is in a different postcode to Visy Park.

That`s the thing i don`t understand Club. He knows it`s going on in the background but then comes out with how anguished he is. Can`t have it both ways. Still don`t know why they didn`t make the cut after the Port or North losses. Could have avoided this debacle.

What would have that achieved Whistler ?

Sticks would have given Ratts every chance to achieve the goal. Can't throw a plan out the window when it gets shaky when you are trying to teach players the same thing. Once it became impossible the pin was pulled.
Meanwhile he probably told certain people to sound out others in case the goal was not met while kept out of it and went down the loyalty path. Fake loyalty in way but it was the face of loyalty that avoided a huge collapse and gave Ratts every chance which he no doubt appreciated and we had the classy parting of ways today.

I personally feel a little dirty about it all. If any player has a sense or even a sense of satisfaction over this they should be traded.

Something is not right with our list and whoever gets them next year better weed out the problem before starting on anything else or they are on a hiding to nothing.

You want to compare those two playing lists?! Lol

Could you just imagine if Malthouse turns around and says he doesnt want to coach us.

Are you saying we should get Pagan back?

One year in how many? Proves the point I would think.

MICK MALTHOUSE, AS MUCH AS I LIKE HIM, IS NOT THE ANSWER FOR OUR CLUB.
