That’s not spineless - that is the much tougher/braver decision and if pays off is the best for our long term culture

I've been supportive but he's making it hard.
Allowing his manager to savage the captain in the media is weak as piss. Not to mention his childish "woe is me" carry on after the game on Saturday.
If you want to keep your job David, harden the @#$%&! up and start acting like a strong leader instead of a school kid.

Very ordinary and would be another reason why he will lose his job

It's the Herald Sun.
There is nothing beyond the headline quote.

Are they angling for the club to come out and sack him so he get's a full pay out?
I cant see how Teague and Cripps can remain at the club together now. Crippa's defensive work has been poor but this is very poor form for Teagues manager to go this hard in the media. Disgraceful really.
@#$%&! him off tonight. Don't even allow him to empty his desk out.

Probably an indication he already has.
Might have been a few quotes from Cripps in the review feedback?

David Teague’s manager has launched a scathing attack on Blues’ captain Patrick Cripps on the day the club bizarrely postponed a call on the senior coach’s future.
Liam Pickering has lashed the Blues for their lack of public support for Teague over the past month and on Monday fired a broadside at Cripps for his defensive lapses, ordinary form and injury “excuses”.
The criticism comes as Teague prepares to front Carlton powerbrokers this week in an attempt to keep his job after receiving a copy of the club’s external review into the football department.
Carlton was scheduled to have an all-club meeting on Monday in which the coaching panel, fitness and recruiting departments may have learned their fate.

But the meeting was scrapped, leaving Teague and football boss Brad Lloyd to carry out exit interviews with the players despite clouds over their own futures.
Lloyd has been linked to Collingwood’s vacant list manager position, while the assistant coaching panel is expected to be overhauled. Midfield coach Brent Stanton was let go by the Blues on Monday.
Pickering, who was speaking on a SEN platform, took aim at Cripps’ on-field impact and his injury history, saying the onballer was no longer an A-Grader.
“I don’t think he is (an A-Grader). The way he has played for the past two years, I think he has been pretty ordinary,” Pickering said.
“This is his game at the weekend - he had 17 disposals, no kicks, 17 handballs, and negative three metres gained.
“Geez, he has a lot of injuries, he gets a lot of excuses for injuries. I think he has just had a poor year.
“He has had a drop-off for two years. Is it injury? Yeah it probably is. Maybe.”
Teague appeared to have a crack at Cripps post game on Saturday night after the co-captain was subbed out with a leg injury.
The right-footer missed last week’s loss with a left quad injury but played against the Giants and did not have a single kick.
“I don’t know if he hurt it early or he was just choosing to handball,” Teague said.
“But a little bit of that hurt us around the contest at times. That is something from a leadership point of view and a group point of view we have got to get better at.”

Pickering questioned Cripps’ defensive efforts throughout the season, even though the dual All-Australian and three-time best-and-fairest winner played under significant duress earlier in the season.
At one stage Cripps, 26, was having pain killing injections two hours before a game to treat a stress-related injury in his back.
But Pickering said the Blues “need more out of their captain” who was this year re-signed on a lucrative six-year deal.
“It has been long time since he actually has delivered in a consistent manner both ways in a game of football where he gets the ball and he actually puts defensive pressure on (and) chases and tackles,” he said.
“He is a good enough footballer to adapt to the modern game. He is an inside midfielder but they ran off him.”
Teague initially denied any knowledge of Cripps’ back injury earlier in the season, but later corrected himself saying “that was pretty average by me” and admitted he had “one of my worst press conferences”.
Teague said a call on his future “doesn’t look like it is going to go in my favour” after the Blues went down to GWS Giants by 14 points on Saturday night, rounding out a dismal season.

Of course. This is Pickering 101.

If Teague was a chance to be retained, you would think Pickering wouldn’t be making such comments

So Pickering is teagues mouth piece

So all you supporters , you must be happy he is bagging Cripps openly now and you want him to coach ?? And build culture ,

But he never bagged Murphy .. says a lot of teagues character right now

As I said previously he sided with liddle 2 and half years ago to take control of the club , that moron former president is worse ever to be president

Sayers will be found out this week if he buckles to liddle ...

I'm very much in the "sack" or "extend for 2 more years" camp

Another year of teague seeing out his contract would be an unmitigated disaster.

I think he should go. But if he doesn't, extend.

Dead set if I was Teague I would quit.
Tell them to @#$%&! off and get on with my life.

Says nothing about Teague.

I think cripps has been very poor by his standards

No matter what camp you are in , Cripps or Teague

Cripps has been signed for 6 years , any losses next year if tegaue stays how do you think the media are going to be ?? They will be loving it

This Pickering needs a good punch in the mouth , and I’m over tegaue and his victims speeches

I have known for a long time cripps never wanted him appointed and tegaue is very much two faced .. and today thru his manager he showed his colours and his press conference on Saturday night

No class

Did Leon Cameron get his manager to come out and bag cognilo??
Did hardwick manager come out and bag Martin and , Cotchin all those years ago

Typical Carlton absolute rubble ....

If I was Sam Walsh i would be asking for a trade and getting the hell out of there ...
