I enjoy watching MM"s post match press conferences b/c he apparently makes an ass of himself.

Well l also enjoy watching Bomber Thompson"s press conferences b/c he also makes an ass of himself!

Either Mick is pasting on the mayo (and Judd is happy to go along with that),

or *maybe* Mick is actually doing some things right at the club

Mick's doing lots of things right. We are on the up.

you're right
micky is doing thing right by mick

Just got bailed up by a Collingwood supporter at work. He wants to swap coaches

Are you doing your homework, hope it is not English, cannot even string a sentence together.

Some certain people are very noticeable in their absence lately?

Could they be wrong about MM or is there nothing they can complain about recently?

Interesting.

They will try and find something, but actually it is quite amusing reading their tripe.

for a while then it becomes boring and repetitive.

interesting turn of events after two year it changes all of a sudden

i'm not surprised, that is if you have been paying attention

At least it happened in 1.5 years not 5.5 years of the same crap.

Solid first half - should be in front with some decent kicking. Great work by Murphy and Gibbs - quality. Our footsoldiers will be the difference. Be interested to know what Yarran's instructions are. Some of his decisions that quarter were baffling.
We are in the game but I suspect Geelong's class will tell in the end.

Yes trigger and pyschologist, we are really going places arent we:
Carlton lost 82 - 76 (2014)
Carlton lost 119 - 103 (2013)
Carlton Lost 85 - 97 (2012)
Carlton lost 100 - 102 (2011)
Carlton won 104 - 68 (2010)

We have made enormous strides under Mick this year, beating the likes of the eagles, doggies, saints twice , Kangaroos, gold coast, crows,

A very impressive list of scalps.

And we havent won more than 2 games in succession during this season.

Even the TIgers have managed a streak of 7 wins,

Great year - very great

However, he has had some bad luck with injuries this year and in fact, i don't think we've fielded our best 22 once all season.

Psych, i suspect most wd concede MM has been a very effective coach over his career. Does that mean he still is? The jury is clearly out. We compare him with Ratts. Why? He is and should be miles better. Ratts had no experience, and was a jobs for the boys apptmt and paid way less. At the moment we have been ordinary for two years. Much as we have been quite good recently, wins and close loses at the back end when finals are gone is small consolation. We will be about 13 th this year, our membership is down, our crowds are down. As a very highly paid and credentialled coach i can't see how he is an unqualified success. Next year he needs to get us to about eigth, improve membership significantly and crowds. Coaches on huge dough need to be effective right across the club, and he needs to work on off field charm, it comes with the territory. Too often we proclaim the messiah, and coming 13th with membership and crowds dropping is a fail. Maybe we are building something, next year will tell. There were a lot of fans bouyed in 2004 and rapt when we extended Pago, that didn't turn out so well. MMs contract should be reviewed this time next year and not before. Hopefully brave losses to the cats, the dockers, gws brissy and the dees, will actually all be wins next year. We have the talent to be finalists next year. The worry is that 4 or 5 of our best players are near the end and the mid/long term is not so rosy.

If we had Miles we would win 7 in a row too.
