So which hard arse do you suggest if it ain’t Clarko or Lyon ??

As is keogh's way, he'll let you know in 3 to 4 years.

You don't ever call a review mid-season. Players, coaches are playing with a sword hanging over them for half a year. Eventually you get so much disunity you get what we have seen the last couple of weeks. Trust everywhere is gone. Teague had little support, no help, players being interviewed about him, essentially hung out to dry. Then we expect a young coach to perform under pressure and his players to perform each week. Easy for us sitting being our keyboard, we're not there copping it and coping with the stress. Damn lucky we were still a finals chance for as long as it was.

There's things he could have focussed more on, like team defence, but that defence did work ok when the players felt like doing it, as is also a big issue discussed ad nauseum, especially after that blast at half time against Hawthorn. Last year was our chance. We were equal 4th for qtrs won, but the 5 goal bursts, hence bad qtrs, cost us. Young coach rookie error. That could be sorted with another preseason. Last preseason was unfortunately a short one due to COVID. Plus too we choked up 2 last qtrs in 5 days when finals looked right on for us.

Please Answer the question , which teams had we beaten before the review had been announced??

How many top 8 sides had we beaten before the review

How did he rectify the 5 goal onslaughts against us before the review

How was our defence holding up against other teams before the review

Oh and were we sitting on the ladder when the review was announced ?? Top4? Top8?

Stop blaming the world including Covid , swans got Pyke during these times

Yep, it was a shit sandwich before the review was called. Teague had demonstrated that he couldn't produce a balanced game style that valued defensive cohesion.
What the review has done is given us the answers we required now. It enables us to approach the coaches we want, to implement the football administrators we want before the trade/draft window commences.
There is no perfect timing but this has occurred at the time that will give us the most options moving forward.

Sad for Teague but I support Carlton Football Club and what is best for the organisation. Not individuals.
No doubt had we waited and missed out on the best candidates, the usual suspects would have whinged about that as well. You can't win with some.

It put Teague and co on alert and gave them time to make adjustments while letting future coaches know we have matured as a club in our processes.

Been to a few AGM"s in my time . They make me feel good coz if there is one thing about a Carlton supporter he is dedicated , passionate , and fair dinkum . You would have to be to stick around after twenty five years of ape dropping's . I live in hope , and i hope there is greatness out there waiting to emerge . I"ll give you one thing Walshy , you come up with a couple of blokes that i had completely forgot in Jammo and Prender . Now there is a couple of young blokes with tram's and train's who would be IDEAL to come into the joint and be big plusses . Hope this bloke Sayers has got the kahuna's he is supposed to have to turn the joint upside down and REFRESH big time .......................Yeah , the AGM's are a great Carlton institution . Never dull even when we where flying . Some brilliant characters get along to those . .................Joe , " The Golfer ", The matter , the Professer , The Rat , Fantasy land , Nerves etc etc .................brilliant Carlton people who are the essence of who we are .

Feel sorry for Teague but to be fair he knew he was gone after the hawthorn game said as much at a Richmond pub after the game … on the flip side with Walsh writing his CV he’s guaranteed another gig …

So which hard arse do you suggest if it ain’t Clarko or Lyon ??

I think that's a good point actually. The review has some detractors but in general terms it does show that we actually give a damn about cleaning up our mess.

Dear Donstuie,

As communicated to you earlier this year, this season is to be my last as President of the Carlton Football Club, with my tenure officially concluding this week, whereby I will formally complete my extensive handover to incoming President, Luke Sayers.

I have full trust and confidence that Luke as President, and the Board of Directors, will continue the work of growing the entire football club, delivering on-field success for all our teams and importantly serving you, and all our members. Stability and managed succession are still the keys to the future success of this football club.

I’d like to take this opportunity to personally thank you for the support and patience you have afforded me and the Board during my tenure.

With your support, and with a total unified club effort, by our Board, our players, our staff, our members and our commercial partners and sponsors, we have delivered:
• Record membership (81,302 members in 2021).
• Record sponsorship with multiple long-term, mutually beneficial partnerships that demonstrate a significant show of faith in the direction of our club. We are incredibly grateful for their support.
• A skills-based Board with strong governance, strategy, succession and accountability.
• The establishment of a Reconciliation Action Plan.
• A flagship community program in Carlton Respects that raises awareness of gender equality for the prevention of violence against women.
• The establishment of a women’s team in the inaugural AFLW competition, an historic achievement for our club.
• A club that for the first time since 1996 is debt free and no longer a financially assisted club of the AFL.
• A strong financial position that will enable us to continue to increase our investment in all our football programs.
• Record revenue including new, non-traditional revenue streams through Carlton IN Business and Carlton College of Sport, and;
• The largest infrastructure project for IKON Park, which will provide fully integrated, elite facilities for all our teams, better conditions for our members to watch games, and provide an interactive museum displaying our rich history. IKON Park will continue to be the home of the Carlton Football Club long into the future.

Despite these many achievements, the key objective and responsibility remains to deliver improvement in our on-field performances each year. To this point, the Club has undertaken a review of the football department with the key focus on our AFL team.

The independent, external panel last week provided an update to incoming President Luke Sayers and the Board. This update was part of the review process, which remains ongoing and any further updates will be communicated to members in due course.

It’s been an honour and privilege to serve you and the Club over the past 12 years as a Director, and as President over the past eight years.

My focus has always been to do what is in the best interests of the Carlton Football Club.

Thank you for entrusting me with the role of President, it is a responsibility I have never taken for granted and I thank each and every member for their support.

Mark LoGiudice
President
