Need to implement some basic team rules.
Like nominate an opposition defender each week no one is allowed to kick it to.

They announced this rebuild when Malthouse was in charge.

I said it wouldn't work andvit wasn't needed .

Now 6 years plus on we are a bigger basket case.

We have a list full of dumb footballers that are clueless.
No one can coach them.


We are hopeless and have many years of pain ahead of us

Yeah, the list six years ago was so much better….

How about nominating all opposition defenders.

You are probably right .
But the last 6 years could have been so much better.
We had been sold a dud.
This rebuild was the only way forward that would lead to flags.

Too complicated

How about kicking to our forwards?

The likelihood of us making finals are incredibly slim, I think missing finals will be the last nail in Teagues coaching career.

Malthouse caused immense damage and we've had some terrible drafts.

In what way? Don’t make a statement without backing it up with an explanation. Don’t assume we all know because we don’t.

The bloke at least knows how to coach. He did it for more than 30 odd years.

Some coaches may not win the popular vote contest but when it comes to doing a job well they get results, irrespective of how “unfashionable” they are. You know what great leaders do...it’s selecting the right person for the job regardless of what others in the room might think, because at the end of the day, that leader got into a position of power because they have a history of making the right decision and seeing the forest for the trees.

We have some great building blocks to work with, but the reality is we are going nowhere.
Need to look at needs and start addressing them.

The Dow draft was an absolute turd draft. No players in the top 10 of that draft will really gone any where.
Reality is we have to rebuild, poor recruitment has killed us.

I'm not going to get excited about our current list which we will only stagnate around 9th with.

I'm gonna be realist and admit we are done, call me what you will I dont care.

we got wrong time to move on and start working for next success

That would be great if the leaders were chosen for the right reason.
When Malthouse went to Collingwood, he wanted Buckley replaced as the leader. Not because Buckley wasn't a good leader but because Buckley had loyalty from the playing group and Malthouse wanted to remove any power Buckley possessed.
If was for no reason other than ego. The board refused to replace him so Malthouse actively undermined Buckley until he had his way.
Buckley and others openly tell the stories of how Malthouse would get Buckley up in front of the players and put a black mark on the whiteboard. He would ask Buckley what colour the mark was. Buckley said black. Malthouse said it was white.
Malthouse said the colour was whatever he said it was and Buckley wasn't to think otherwise. That was his approach. He wanted total power and he would walk over anyone to get it. He was a shit bloke with a shit approach.

It's the same reason he wanted to remove Judd and replaced him with Murphy. Pick a young, impressionable person who will be influenced by the coach and wont have his own opinion. It's exactly why he told Mark Neeld to dump the leaders at Melbourne and replace them with Grimes and Trengove. Not only did it cause a wedge with the players but it placed enormous pressure on 2 young players who didn't get over it.
Malthouse was a selfish, egotistical narcissist IMO so please don't talk up his virtues without talking to the coaches and players he [REDACTED] over first.

We're not so bad if you didn't watch Sunday's game and have avoided all talk of Carlton in the media as well as the player and match threads on TC
