THE SKY IS FALLING!! THE SKY IS FALLING!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!
Well, bugger me. The club has identified that the coaching team was not good enough. If they could clear out 80% of the staff today they probably do. But you can't. Most of the staff know they're gone the second that the season ends. It started, somewhat sadly, with Bolts.
Agree or disagree with it as much as you like. The players gave every indication that they had quit. Sunday was not a good look. The board reacted to the situation (some would argue overly so).
We now have to bare down, work hard as a football club and make the difficult decisions. Board upheavel will not accomplish that.
However, the current board should not be responsible for our next coaching hire. I want to see a completely independent team of recruiting and sports specialists make the decision by going through a transparent process. That means no current or former players having influence in the decision.
I want to see the selected coach enabled to select his own team of assistant coaches with approval and advice of the selection panel. You can select a head coach but he needs to have his team and that team should be selected under the same weights and measures that the head coach endured.
It's a very old Carlton thing to throw the baby out with the bath water. Enough is enough. It must be different this time.
