IMO there's too much at stake to continue with Teague.

Big gamble either way but Clarkson or Lyon is playing the percentages. We need experience. Not just game day but also player management.
And that's just it, it's not time to gamble. We gave a couple of untried younger coaches a go and it hasn't worked out for one reason or another.

Taking either Clarkson or Lyon is playing the percentages.

l don't see any substance to this at all, Walsh has a year left on his contract, is their most valuable player and will be offered significant money in a long term deal, probably in line to be next Captain with Weitering.
KohPhi is rarely wrong. Why, he told me the sun would rise this morning, and he was right!
 
This board is going to be a literal madhouse next week (possibly as soon as tomorrow) with the review findings and fallout, Cerra requesting a trade from Freo etc.
 
I juts don’t know how I would feel about Clarkson coaching us. It’s just so hard to stomach.

If you speak to players from the 87 premiership side Clarkson got squared up during the game after his dog shot, even Kennedy Snr made Clarkson stay on the field to cop his right whack. Seriously it's time to move on he's the best coach potentially ever.

I think there's a bit of both.
That our development has only seen the really determined/sublimely talented break through - Crippe, McKay, Walsh & Weitering.
There has to be some questioning of the recruitment process if, as rumours speculate, that players being asked to earn a start in their preferred position has resulted in them seeking alternate clubs.
I'd be curious how closely we look into personality traits during the draft interview process as we seemingly walk away with shrinking violets more frequently than most clubs.
I think, if someone's going to try to refute the specific with the general, they had better have some definitive specific examples.

I genuinely hope so..

I have no idea why posters continue to reference Darcy Parish in relation to our young players, likening Dow and LOBs or even SPS’s development to his, its miles off the mark, Parish was not a slow burn, like people keep claiming, in Parish‘s first season, he averaged over 20 possessions and 3 tackles per game, none of Dow, O’Brien or SPS, even in their 4th and 5th seasons are even close to that.

It’s a fair call.
Certainly Dow, who has never averaged more than 15 possession/season, is a fair way behind Parish, but Samo averaged 19 possessions and 4 tackles in 2019 (before spending the last 2 seasons being played out of position) so with a coach who plays him in his position I think he can improve a lot.
LOB is a wingman so if he improves it’ll be on much different metrics to Parish who plays completely differently.

Is is it wrong as a Carlton supporter to just want a quiet off season for once?

Every off season we are in the news regarding players/trades etc and now we can add coaches! FFS I can’t take it anymore and want stability. 🤨


Get Cerra done though and I hope he nominates us.
 
Exactly! What happens on the field stays on the field

Also, it was a different era back then. Thug acts were an accepted part of the game.
It's quite unbelievable to be honest, but we had our fair share of snipers/thugs ourselves, so i agree with you, some here can be a tad hypocritical..

Hopefully next year when the dust has settled & we’re actually playing good footy 🤞
