I hope he gets a two year extension. I enjoy your posts too much. Also, schadenfreude is alive and well in my world.

he will be at carlton for as long as he likes.
when he leaves it will be his choosing

u do realise... he was at collingwood for 1 flag in 11 seasons and 4 GFs

Carltons best in that time was 1 semi final...

We needed Kennedy and another pick in the top 5 we could have traded for a young mid and still had pick 20..

Two genuine game plans on display tonight

Tricky Micky certainly embarrassed himself this year ... not only did he get overwhelmingly outcoached ... his dramatic performances in the box showed that he really would have made a splendid actor. No control ... no resolve ... setting a terrible example for the players. No wonder Betts, Robinson, Yarran and Laidler want to hit the road. Man management was crazy and at the selection table he was bewildering.

And the super duper coach (who thought this was a very good team at the start of the year) managed to scrape up 11 games in the home and away. Awful performance.


Roll on 2016 ... then it will take another 10 years to fix the damage. (Damn ... I hope not ... I am getting old)

2 teams with a hell of a lot more skill in the disposal stakes as well....makes a big difference controlling the ball.

Congrats. Worst post EVER

Can we shut this stupid thread down.
Its NOT going to happen and it gives trolls there time on our board

That's certainly correct, even though they lost, I thought the cats winner takes all style is great

Nope.

Controlled and focussed messages at all times.

When tv shows him going off it is ONLY after having calmly delivered a message repeatedly and seeing it ignored. He then goes off. He then re-focuses and is calm almost instantly and delivers even messages. Not many better at keeping an even focus on what's occurring.

I second that.

What a load of diarrhoea there BigblueWave

I've listened to a couple of Malthouses previous assistants speaking and what they've said completely contradicts that.

skill level under pressure is one of our biggest problems

due to a mixture of physical and mental deficiencies in our team/list

did you notice how often the play under pressure was one touch football

we fumble and bomb

Re: Mick's dummy spits, doesn't help we see more vision of the coaches in the box than on the play these days.

I just want my old club back ... (edit) maybe I have!

I would hate to think what we would have seen if there was so much attention given to what was happening in the coaches boxes back in the day of coaches like Barassi and Parkin

The other difference is there were no 'forced' press conferences directly after a loss back in the day either, if a coach didn't feel he was ready to face the media after a bad day he would just say no to any request.

No excuse for the tantrum with the water bottle. Reminded me of a two year old in a supermarket or a drunken fan after a grand final loss. The stomping out on the ground looking for a player to eyeball at quarter time looks like he is playing it up for the cameras too.
These are things the club should get him working on if he is going to stick around for a while like Synbad reckons.
They should also encourage him to find a modern gameplan. If he smashes water bottles when that encouragement comes then he should be encouraged into retirement.
