But have they done it correctly?

Can't see that the Betts deal would be any different to that of Tippett, Franklin, Ablett, Goddard etc etc etc. And should Dangerfield go to Geelong we'll throw that dodgey deal into the mix also.Good on Mick, the board would want him to quit. From the sounds of things they're all gutless individuals who are more concerned with their own agendas instead of what's good for the Carlton football club and him quitting would save them the embarrassment.
Sounds like Trigg might have a bit of explaining to do to the AFL in regards to Eddie Betts as well. If he is found to be guilty surely the entire board has to step down. Like hiring a bank robber to work at a bank and then being surprised when they rob you
The only difference is when an absolute peanut like Trigg feels the need to impress someone.

I don't know if it's just Trigg.
The president - who seems to me like a pretty levelheaded operator - comes out and says they're finally rebuilding... and the coach doesn't seem to know anything about it?
Joint has problems.
As Malthouse said, there's nothing to be gained by giving him two weeks at all.
The bloke is a 30 year veteran. Everyone except the morons in charge know that this bloke can build a competitive team when given time.
Since day one his hiring has reeked of divided board decision. Heck, I heard rumblings from a very concrete Collingwood source that Mick did not rate the list anywhere near as highly as the higher ups and lots of supporters did at the time.
Right now the club is treating a legend of this game with an incredible amount of disrespect and as a Carlton supporter I'm sick. The way we ousted Ratten was bad enough. It appears nothing has been learned.
As KB was saying before too, who in their right mind would now want to coach this club after Mick knout that this board will throw them under the bus at the first possible chance?
This is only going to get uglier. Four of our most important players are on the way out, there are no ready made replacements.
How is this absolute pissweak bunch in the admin going to withstand the pressure when it inevitably comes again in a few years time?
In any case, piss off Carlton, you're taking up all the airtime and column inches. And that belongs to us dammit.

I just can't help but think that the man at the front in Trigg needs to go. He could be a great CEO (though he doesn't seem to be), but he embarrasses you in the media and has no credibility.
He's only speaking the truth. Should we sack the next coach that refuses to drink the board's bath water too?
Its time for Mick to go, I have a lot of respect for him but everone can see that this has not worked. A great career and a fighter to the last gasp. What disappoints me now is I have zero confidence in Trigg and the board to make the right decisions moving forward.
Trigg is very obviously an underhand operator who we can do without. LoGiudice is floundering and out of his depth in dealing with this crisis. He is coming out of this with very little credibility. I really hope a true leader emerges from this joke.

It is my opinion, and having seen plenty of turmoil at my own football club I can attest to how much stability a stable and respected CEO brings to the table. Even just from what plebs like myself can ascertain looking in.

Well you cant turn around in the media and say the players are down because the board said theres going to be a rebuild. That's just a cop out to his gross under performance. The players simply have no idea what they're doing on field
The way you're trying to absolve the board, CEO and President from this is laughable.
They have clear problems that still haven't been addressed since the Ratten axing. Nobody elected the President, I doubt most of us agreed with hiring a known dodo like Trigg and the board is still largely dominated by Pratt and Matheson like it has been for years.
Once Malthouse goes, if some serious reevaluation isn't done again, I've lost all hope. We've had four coaches in fifteen years all meeting the same end . When will people finally accept that the coach is hardly the biggest problem?

Yes well done an elimination victory from 4 years ago. Completely dismissed my points and anything I've said is irrelevant.
They clearly havn't even done that right, may as well start again.
Resign Mick you just don't need it anymore

Seems like a crap way to go for Malthouse after coaching so many years. Deserves a bit more than the current circus

I'm sure he could do with the extra $500k by not resigning. He will force their hand for that reason.
The Triggster what a guy

Feel like LoGiudice is trying to take the heat off, but Trigg seems to be adverse to towing the company line. A line, funnily enough, that he should be constructing. Clear disconnect.
