Anyone taking the Port job is either nuts or in need of 400K a year.

Serious problems at that club and no clear way out.

Not the place to enhance your coaching reputation.

Unless of course you get them to top four within the next few years in which case you're the best coach I've ever seen.

A 41 year old Brett Ratten, with 5 1/2 years senior AFL coaching experience, presented poorly for a job at Port, requiring him to withdraw from consideration to save his blushes.

A 35 year old Brett Ratten, with 1 year as assistant at Melbourne, and very little public speaking experience or skill, did so well presenting to Carlton that no further process was required.

I'm starting to think maybe Ratten wasn't the best man for the Carlton job.


What a difference a real field of candidates does?
IMHO Ratts would've taken the PA job in a heartbeat. I also think he jumped before being pushed.

If I were him, I'd be begging Clarko for a 2 year contract at Haw. Then another successful coach and then another. Also, go and do some mansgement studies and some research on other codes to find that 1% edge

At 47, he starts putting himself back on the market

BTW SEN going with Leon Cameron or Ken Hinkley for PA job. Ratts is not even in their league as far as a well rounded apprenticeship


When Cameron or Hinkley drag PA from the bottom to 3 finals series in 5 years then get stuck into Ratts for missing the gig.


When Ratts can beat anyone in an interview for a senior coaching gig in a genuine process..........

Is anyone actually Thanking Ratts in this thread?

Or just 'dancing on his grave' ?

Maybe this thread has served its purpose

TalkingAFL ?
