Attended a lunch today at The Australian Club (I know, I know....terrible place).

Anyway....sat nearby Mark Korda. 3 things he was happy to disclose:

1. Collingwood will not be hiring Clarkson. Apparently 'they can't afford him'. (Not sure what that means...)
2. Sayers 'has been badgering Clarkson for months now'. Blues are still in his ear but Clarkson remains uncommitted.
3. No love lost between Korda and Eddie. He knows Eddie is trying to depose him and is right in Jeff Browne's corner.

Interested in Dan McStay - but he's contracted for another year.

Btw I heard we offered a slightly too large (in my opinion) contract to Dan Hewett. Doing the rounds in a few group chats i'm told.

Happy to post this here as it isn't coming from inside the club.

It is the 'belief' from a former multiple premiership star Hawk that Clarkson will be coaching Carlton next year.

Clarkson is apparently filthy with the Hawks and Carlton are right into him.

He was also of the belief he may not even see out the year with the Hawks.

As I mentioned this is not coming from anyone on Carlton's end and is a prominent Hawks belief of what will happen.

In reply to the above ^^^^^^^

Contacted my mother's cousin (former long time Hawks board member), "Carlton have been in Clarko's ear for months. This would not surprise me at all."

My CFC people deny it.

He has agreed to a one year deal I'm told. But agree, he should look elsewhere considering the lack of opportunities.

The disconnect between the Senior Coach and the Director of High Performance is a key factor in player management apparently.

The lack of tactical nous from the Senior Coach became clear to someone key on our board in preseason.

There are onsiders who play as stabilisers in the team. Senior players are coaching on the field- able to because of an absence of strong system or proper scouting of opposition coaching plans.

#Bluemour

 

[The Flying Doormat]

Pyke, Leppitsch, Scott, Lyon

one of the above (at least) will be coaching Carlton next year.

Not just my opinion, no.

A prediction based on what I have been told.

I really can’t say who, but I absolutely promise it’s based on two different but very reliable sources.

Don’t expect any movement until season end.

I am hearing Teague has been told by Liddle that he cannot guarantee his job.

Lyon now front runner for Head Coach.

Mail has been questionable in the past but have it on authority that Teague will not be the blues coach in 2022.



#Bluemour

To add to this, can also say that Clarkson won't be at Collingwood in 2022..


#Bluemour

 

[Blueballs38]

Offer has been made to Clarko …. Waiting on his management’s response.

Fairly reliably albeit only source I have at Hawthorn not CFC.

[BlueJet]

Clarko apprehensive about Carlton: Thoughts are that we're too beholden to backroom politics which leads to instability within the Footy Ops side of things.

Lloyd scrambling for survival (with help from Liddle).
Might (try to) throw Austin under the bus and take a demotion to survive.

#Bluemour

Lloyd also gone. Austin on notice but I expect to remain (our coaching and development haven’t done the list any favours). Liddle to remain.

[Rarely Rong]

Clarko to sit out next year.

Source: former premiership player.

[gab213]

Buckley and Clarkson are each still in the mix. More than 1 role will need to be filled.

#Bluemour

 

[dragonsblues]

Clarkson is very much interested.

God has spoken.



#Bluemour

 

[Coops93]

Clarkson will give the club an answer in next few days.

#Bluemour

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Lyon deep in negotiations with the club. Clarko still the preference.

Because we all need a bit of happy news:

Re: Jack Silvagni

Bullshit rumors. Club has a pending agreement with him in place. Likewise a few of our other OOC players (e.g. Kemp).

Club was/is waiting on:

• Findings of the review (consider findings)
• Confirmation of head coach in 2022 (take into consideration his opinion)
• Confirmatio of football department (consider their opinion)

Essentially, there is a soft lock put on formalising new contracts now that we had the most pressing high priority needs sorted (Cripps, McKay).

Other big things could happen this week.

Not normally one to quote opposition supporters on BigFooty, but it's a relevant rumour to us.

3 candidates have voluntarily pulled out.

They are now interviewing 4th and 5th rung candidates. Graham now the front runner.

One of the candidates will sign at Carlton as an assistant to Ross Lyon and reportedly told his manager never to communicate with Collingwood again, the interview went that bad.

Its a circus with their current board and no recruiting manager.

[Love the Drake]

Rob Harvey a good chance of coming to Carlton in 2022 as an assistant coach.
