[CLUBMEDhurst]

Is your avatar SBS News anchor Lee Lin Chin with a handgun?

Awesome.

The one and only

Just saw this on Twitter , so came here to check the truth of it I would think he would be shattered. Didn't really seem by his words that he thought they would tell him to go now

Jon Barker apparently going to be interim according to Nine

 

[wizzard400]

Agree with most sentiments - completely media driven. Carlton are an absolute shambles and haven't been for a VERY long time...

 

[Madblue]

Gee you mad bro? Chin up there is always next decade

No not Mad just stating facts

 

[TBellicious]

Stuart Dew please next year.

 

[Ian Dunross]

Malthouse's fault entirely.

Cowardly and selfish way to exit.

Just got this confirmed from my journo girlfriend - was hoping to start the thread and bring on the sweet sweet likes.


Carlton BETTER NOT ******* LIFT this weekend against Sydney

They can barely lift their water bottle at the moment, i think its gonna be a cricket score on friday.

[feffs93]

Hopefully he drags the board down with him!

Stuart Dew please next year.

will he want it, infact, will anyone want it? how much cash does another power broker at carlton wanna throw at it?

Thought this was going to be about Josh Bootsma, thoroughly disappointed.

This is good for us, we can start our rebuild now. Earlier the better.
Playing Graham instead of Warnock is a start.

 

[FreoRicci]

Somehow it gets even worst for Carlton. Who will be brave enough, sane enough to coach them now?

Another Lion/Bear coach!

Mark Stevens practically impregnated himself while breaking the news on Channel 7.

Mick wwas about to bring him back on a $700k... no! $900k contract. If internet rumours I just made up are to be believed.

Fremantle were a bit of a rabble when Lyon took over
Port Adelaide were a rabble when Hinkley took over.

We have a good core group of players need a coach to get it out of them with a game plan that works.

 

[Beerfish]

Terrible news. Was really hoping they'd sign him for the full three year rebuild at the end of the year.

 

[kingswood71]

Feel a bit sad for Mick really.
Hoping Woosha gets the gig next year......Only so we can finally get him off Seven News Perth all the bloody time !!!!

Win-win. No Malthouse who lost the players. More whinging and meltdowns by the clueless rank and file who make up most "supporter" bases.



John Barker is one of the greatest coaches I have dealt with, a total footy head but also has the personal skills so many in the game lack!

Yarran's ex or current GF who used to be our media manager.

Malthouse leaves Carlton in the same way he started. Fired with enthusiasm.

Hope the most games coached record was worth tarnishing your legacy Mick.
