Have I missed something? Has Michael boss done better than Ross Lyon in coaching? Or did Carlton just win a few early season games after 30 years in the wilderness once the salary cap became a thing?
 
Exactly.

The process that clubs go through is a waste of time.

Of course there is always some type of process, but the modern one with rounds of interviews and PowerPoint ****ing presentations is just silly.
Agreed, “process” is often used to complicate things

A good brand of footy, with hard working players is needed
 
Won games against North Melbourne (17th) and West Coast (16th) last season after their bye. Scraped into the Finals before conceding 60 points in the first half of the EF then lost to Richmond in the season opener.

Where does Michael Voss go at Carlton after an embarrassing start to the season

He is rubbish as a plan B coach. Have said it multiple times. He has a decent plan A, and he has the star power to cover up any deficiencies in the plan A.

The moment the other team gets momentum, he has no idea on how to swing it back if Cripps/Charlie/McKay/Weitering don’t win it back.

The amount of run ons Carlton have faced and thrown games away…

Think EF 2024, PF 2023, last night, rounds 11/21/23 last year, heaps more I can’t be bothered looking back up but I have noted before.

Carlton fans have been way too focused on injuries before to look deeply at the coaching flaws. Curnow will be back but Newman won’t this year, and no injuries should make up for the gap in age, experience & class that they had anyway (not to mention Balta, Prestia etc).

Surely now they wake up that Voss can’t coach a slogger team when it’s a needed. When they were 3 goals up a good coach would have coached it into a slugfest in their forward half - instead Richmond were able to find free men everywhere.

Voss is a problem but their team is just not that good.

They are overly reliant on Weitering in the backline. Mids can run hot and cold and still leave too much to Cripps after all these years. They have a great key forward in Curnow and a frustrating one in McKay. They have a horrific small forward line which would not be exaggerating to say is bottom 4 in the comp.

In saying that, when they thrashed Geelong in mid last year, I thought they would challenge Sydney for the premiership. Don't know what had happened since then to fall off so calamitously but they do seem to do this (go on runs of brilliant form and terrible form with not much in between).
 
Have one very good defender, one ok defender and the rest of their defensive team is mewwwwwww.

Dollar for dollar, McKay is very very ordinary. Yes he is big, but his footy brain is lacking.

The team looked very scared in the second half. Team devoid of confidence, waiting for others to do the hard work.
 
Slow meat grinder type of midfield that lacks class, the Jagga injury hurt a lot. They should trade Walsh or Cerra.
was funny in the clutch last night with the game on the line that Walsh marked the ball and had two runners to hand off to and kick inside 50.. he said to himself nah... they need me to kick it in... 5 seconds later, terrible kick and turnover.
perfectly epitomised his ability on the ball and evidenced a guy who doesn't respect his own limitations.

He wasn't the only one.
As a team last night they seemed to play selfish football.

Look at Oscar McInerney last year at the Grand final and see how happy he was for Darcy Fort. Who at Carlton would be that happy for a teammate if they missed out on personal glory?
 
Should be sacked but the club is spineless.

Should take the list manager with him.
After 1 game? Yeah never going to happen to any head coach in any sport.

Would expect them to start the season at best 1-3 before playing West Coast and North so could get back to 3-3. If they are 1-5 or 0-6 he may go then but they probably give him to the bye
 
Dont rate Voss but we have a very unbalanced team which is one paced and relies on two big forwards to kick bags and one A grade mid. We are a middle of the road team leaning towards mediocre.
