Yeah but who with ??

Many clubs, including our own (depending on what happens with Warnock), could do a hell of a lot worse IMO.

Cox may no longer be at the top of his game but nothing I saw from him this season indicated that he couldn't go around again.

As a rookie I reckon it would be well worthwhile if he's agreeable to it, and if so I imagine there'd be a fair few clubs circling.

I realise this has nothing to do with this thread and will be removed but please enjoy whilst it is still up!


In all this time, ive never seen all of that game. Ive seen highlights, I listened to the whole thing on the radio on the day, but never tracked down a copy. Might have to give that clip a run over the weekend.
 
Senior Coach: Mick Malthouse (STAYS)
Director of Coaching & Development: Robert Wiley (JURY's OUT)
Assistant Coach - Midfield: Dean Laidley (STAYS)
Assistant Coach - Back Line: John Barker (GOES)
Assistant Coach - Forward Line: Brad Green (GOES)
Development Coach: Matthew Capuano (GOES)
Development Coach: Michael Osborne (GOES)
VFL & Development Coach: Luke Webster (JURY's OUT)

The big issue for me is that apart from Malthouse & Laidley, we don't have enough 'mongrel' on the coaching panel. When a coach looks you in the eye and asks you to run through a brick wall for him, you will follow that instruction without fear or favour if it comes from someone you know did the same in their playing career. They inspire you to greater heights.

Imagine if we had Jono Brown as our forward coach, the players would be mega-desperate at the contest as well as willing themselves to apply immense defensive pressure. They'd also stick up more for the guys like Murphy getting whacked near the play.

Spot on, that coaching panel screams vanilla.

Understand your logic with this but I see it differently. I think that Malthouse and Laidley are more front than real strength. They protect themselves rather than having the courage to be transparent. People like Ling to me fee like the really strong men that are best set up to inspire other men to be their best. Carlton's players in general seem to lack confidence and need to be led by leaders who are genuinely secure as people. You are right though especially about Laidley as a player. He was a genuinely tough and strong footballer. Just don't get this from either him or Mick off the field.
 
Some news on Webster. His mrs is desperate to move back to perth and he had a job lined up at west coast courtesy of Trevor nesbitt who was good friends with his Dad. Adam Simpson is now not too keen on the idea and his relationship with freo is not flash so getting a job at either is looking unlikely at this stage.
