Coach Carlton and Michael Voss - where to now

[iameviljez]

Yeah i think i remember that..

Apologies for bringing it up again. But I won't cover your therapy.

Whoever suggested Pyke needs to shut the hell up. He is doing a great job at WC and must remain there as long as possible.

It's wonderful to see a Fremantle supporter being so magnanimous and supportive of West Coast. Truly a testament to the Australian spirit!

Because he can't coach.

There was an article which mentioned when he arrived and how he sat down with the players and asked them what kind of game style they would like to play.

At the time I thought who the **** cares what the players want. You're the coach, you're the one that has to come up with the game plan to bear other teams game plans.

Voss is utterly clueless when it comes to that aspect of the game.

He's the league's easiest coach to out coach.

He didn't really say that surely?

 

[Bostonian]

He didn't really say that surely?

According to the article he did speak to players about game play/style.

This isn't the exact article but it points out he's asking the players what they felt would be important. I mean who cares what they think, that's one of the biggest problems at the club, they care too much what the players think and let them control narratives.

Rather than working out for himself what needs to be improved, he got his insight from the players and then was going to implement their views.


"Voss underwent a long and thorough process of speaking to his playing group individually in his first few days at the club, feeling out where they were in their career development and enquiring about what they felt would be important to move the side forward. From there, he gleaned a better insight into what needed to improve and how quickly that improvement could take place."


Shit coach.

Ken Hinkley's cunning plan to white ant other clubs with his useless gameplan claims another victim.

St Kilda
Carlton

Next Chad Cornes to coach Western Bulldogs.

He's in big trouble. They've got a good list that should be competing for top 4, yet scraped into finals and lost their only final.

The spine is probably as good as they get, Jones, Weitering, Walsh, TDK, Cripps, Curnow and McKay. I really can't think of a team with a better spine.

0-4 means top 4 is already essentially out of the equation (barring a massive run of wins).

Again, like many many teams this season, fitness appears to be a problem. I can't recall a season where i've seen so many teams with players absolutely cooked in the third quarter - particularly this many games into the season. Have the game plans got even more demanding?

My understanding is that the number of weeks that players are available to the club and the numbers of hours in those weeks has been declining under bargaining arrangements. This may well mean that the difference in fitness levels comes from player discipline and commitment outside of those (not saying this has never been the case but perhaps it matters more now than previously).

This suggests that clubs need to recruit players who generally show such discipline and commitment and then create an environment where players want to do that extra work for a sustained period of time.

Buckley
Longmire

Not sure any of these candidates would be much of an improvement?

By asking Ross to actually present a case as to why he should be coach?

The Blues got it ass about.

They should have been presenting a case as to why Ross should coach them.

Why's that? Where have the Saints finished the last few years under RTB?

Because the Blues are a graveyard for coaches
