I just don't understand this approach.
We have been down this path many times and we have never had any good results other than a quick sugar hit, so why do people still want to do it?
The last one was Bolton, as a result we made Teague interim coach and look how that tuned out.
If the players all hated Voss and they got together as a group and spoke to GW, I get it.
If we had a premiership list that was just failing, I also get it.
But nobody is hearing that internally, in fact it is the complete opposite and our list is no where near a premiership list.
I just don't get why Carlton supporters want to drag us back to the way it has been that has kept us down for so long.
Let him coach the year out, see what he and the other coaches can do, see what players need to stay or be moved on.
Make all the moves in the last month of the year and publicly announce changes at the end of the season.
We are not making finals so it is a good time to go through the whole club and see what is missing.
For me on-field leadership is severely lacking, I have said this many times, we are missing senior players that come from premiership teams.
Weitering, Cripps and Walsh as good as they are, are seemingly just not good enough.
You are assuming my point and reasoning
It was wrong before because we had many issues and picked wrong people. What is choice now? Sit and do nothing and watch us get worse?
Voss has had 5 years at blues and 10 as a senior coach and nearly 20 years in coaching system. Seems obvious to me he isn't up to it
I don't see point of hanging on to him when it's obvious he won't be there next year and we are a bottom 4 side. We have played 1 top 8 side in the first 6 games and have won 1. Next month will really tell us a lot
I agree our list and leadership is lacking and needs to be addressed as well. this is more than one issue and i reckon GW has already made decisions anyway
I don't think I am.
You are saying to get rid of a coach mid season because you don't think he is up to it?
You say it was wrong before, how do you know it won't be wrong again?
Which assistant is going to rise from the ashes and be our saviour?
You say we are getting worse, I think the data suggests otherwise.
We just had the 5th hardest draw for the 1st six games, we lost game we should've won and we started off only playing 1 quarter and finished play the whole game bar 7min which is pretty much normal for most teams.
Our next 6 games are ranked 8th hardest and the following 6 are ranked 15th hardest IIRC.
We dropped one of our slow mids and it has changed our transition, we actually scored from transition last week.
Things are happening, changes are being made.
Yes we don't have the results yet, but you can't just look at as a win loss ratio and say we are getting worse.
If our 'players' converted easy shots on goal, this would not be a discussion.
And let's not make things up, Sydney in Sydney, Adelaide in Adelaide and Collingwood are all considered top 8 teams.
At the start of the season we all would've said 3-3 would be a great position for us after the first 6 rounds.
people come up with reasons why we lost but we still lost, good side wouldn't have
the issue for me is we also play poorly.
i think we have many issues but coach is one. my opinion is after 10 years he hasn't shown anything to say he can coach
