You remind me of my dog Michael Jezz. Roaming around my backyard dropping turds and walking away without any accountability. :lol:
Its like your post the other day about Mick making us defend. :lol: You post absolute nonsense and walk away with zero responsibility to the bullshit you post.

Just remind me, if Mick is the best thing going for us, why are we 0-2?
Why are we conceding more points per game than we were under Ratten?
Why is our winning percentage under your hero less than it was in the previous 4 years of Ratten?
Why are we paying twice as much for a coach who is delivering less?
Why are you crowing about Mick pruning 25% of the list when the reality is we've made less primary list changes under Mick than most of the successful sides above us have?

Just to put in perspective "the best thing we have going for us", lets look at Micks achievements at Carlton compared to the last 3 years of Ratten. (You know him, the guy you unmercifully shitcanned)

Under Mick we've conceded more points per game than we did in Rattens final 3 years.
Under Mick we've kicked less points per game than we did in 2 of Rattens final 3 years.
Under Mick we're 16th in the AFL for disposals so not only are we conceding more and scoring less, we cant actually keep the ball when we get it. (Thank God for Melbourne and GWS although I suspect theyll surpass us this year)

All for the cost of upwards of $1,000,00 per year plus the money we've spent to pay out coaches he didnt like! What a pisser!
I'll PM you my address later. You and my dog can compare droppings.


:clap: Post of the year


Agree. :thanks:


Ratten had Judd. Juddy carried this team. Mick doesn't have that luxury.



Interesting theory. On one hand I'm told Judd is an unaccountable midfielder.
But on the other hand, Carlton were defensively better under Ratten because Ratten had Judd. :donk:
Which is it exactly?

Few things I've heard.......

Mick is working over time to convince Ben Reid to join he Thomas at he blues... Watch this space.

Spoke to a 'very' senior player who is very impressed with Cameron Giles. He thinks this kid will play plenty of games.

Bryce Gibbs and the club are about 200k per year apart. Also precious Bryce wants to see how much on ball time he gets as the crows see him as genuine on ballet and not a utility.


He sure is a genuine at ballet!

Getting your hands on the ball first limits some of the scoring damage going the other way

Not sure I see a touch of genius in any of these. I admit I loathe the guy, but he hasn't done much so far to show he is a million dollar coach. Ross Lyon took a pretty unremarkably list and had them playing finals straight away. Hinkley has taken a basket case Port way past us. We need a long term coach who is not there to prove a point to his former employer.

We conceded 292 more points last year than we did in 2011. Thats the best part of 50 goals!
Yet Chris judd average an extra 1.4 clearances per game, not an extra 10!
Even if he cleared the ball, kicked it to himself, ran past, handballed to himself and kicked the goal, he'd have to play 33 games per year to be the difference.
Considering the bloke cops so much grief here for being unaccountable and lacking a defensive game, he must be God when it suits the argument.

This I believe and it makes sense.

We have been pointing this out for a while.
If we haven't got these structures in place what system is there to go forward.
Everyone is caught behind the ball without forward targets.
We break down without targets in place and bomb in hope to get distance or a lucky break.

This is where Micks structures and plan break down and have us looking like chooks.

This isn't good enough from an experienced coach.


It isn't. I also know that Andy McKay was keen to bring in an knowledgable assistant from another club to help with this but Mick was against the idea.

Let me try and explain it.

No forward structure means

>>>>>>>> no forwards to hit up in the right positions

>>>>>>>> this means long hopeful kicking for distance

>>>>>>>> but best positioned player/s is the opposing team

>>>>>>>> most part of the 36 direct disposals to the opposition coming into our forward line or rushed kicking out of defence because of our players defending behind the ball and caught out of position (structure).

So we are talking about fwd stricture but now it is defence as well.Fantastic, our players cannot hit a simple target and it is mms fault.
Boy are we out of our depth.

Malthouse would be good if he was coaching us 19 years ago. Too old. Too slow. 2014 dud.

MM or Ratts, I believe we would be in the same situation. I have more faith in MM to get us moving and start developing a competitive list than I would with Ratts at the helm.

The issue with Port was they had banked some good talent and Hinkley is getting the best out of some of the older guys. The CFC however hasn't banked much talent unfortunately.

You were saying that at the start of last season were you MJ, (or is that Christi Malthouse). And if our list is so terrible that even a genius like miserable Mick can't help, why did we get him? He was expressly employed to win a flag while we still had Judd. I presume he won't have taken the job or the $s, if he didn't believe that was possible. Now apparently our list is woeful and M M is bravely holding us back from the abyss. If the coach has no responsibility for performance why have him?
