David Teague appointed Carlton coach

[Rod Stroker]

Good luck Teaguey. I would have preferred him at North instead of Shaw, way more experienced and articulate. And a Shinboner!

 

[Rod Stroker]

Interesting stuff.

Assuming Ratten gets the Saints...what are the odds of 3 successful Caretaker Coach appointments in 1 season?

We’ve had less than 5 get the gigs over the last 20 years odd haven’t we?

Roos, Wallace, Leppitsch, Harvey

Probably forgetting someone of note.

Ratten at Carlton after Pagan. And with a losing record as interim coach there if I'm not mistaken

 

[Sherrinator]

Carlton board pls

 

[Rod Stroker]

Brad Scott left out in the cold

The Saints gig was always his best bet. Still may happen, but unlikely.

Still might be an opening at Tullamarine to come...

 

[Macpotata]

Good. Already making a positive impact and seems like a good bloke.

 

[Macpotata]

Carlton board pls

 

[matey]

Obviously we made a huge offer to Clarkson, who was tempted it seems, but declined it.

B###s##t. As soon as the rumours came out in the media Clarko put a stop to it immediately .... he never considered it. The footy journos are just a bunch of hyenas!

 

[Milanista28]

Right place right time for Teague, good on him he deserves this chance.

 

[KnaveyBlue]

Makes Chris Judd's comments looking fairly silly. Prehaps next time he will stay quiet.

Judd has stated his comment was taken way out of context, and Judd is part of the board that made the appointment.

Prehaps you're not as clever as you think.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Teague far better bet than B Scott

Nah it's true, my sources confirmed it.

 

[matey]

Nah it's true, my sources confirmed it.

Yeah mine too. My sources also tell me that Bombers are offering big bucks to Clarko over the last few days. But offer didn’t get passed on to him as his manger knows that he is person with strong values so it would be a waste of time.

Rhyce Shaw and David Teague tick, next will be Brett Ratten. Too big a odds that all will be successful.

I'll bet my left testicle that towards the end of next season one of them will have crashed and burned and will be under immense pressure to maintain their position.

Shaw if i was a betting man.

So he comes in and stops playing the kids in pivot positions ... restores the old guard ... plays the veterans to get instant improvement..
what a genius ....I’m mean no one could have done that ... Not even Bolton.

 

[Xtreme]

So Chris Judd got a coach on training wheels after all!

Hope things turn around, they've had a fair while in the football wilderness.

 

[Chism]

Looked out of his depth Sunday.

Tigers form has been good and with a minute to go we were 16pts down...



If that’s out of ones depth what’s your thoughts on the coaches of the teams in that list?

ratten was winless as the carlton interim coach

To be fair, there is a bit more to it then that. Players in general are performing better under him. Silvagni is a prime example of someone who just looked lost under Bolton. Now he looks like a legitimate player.

Clarko was never going to Carlton after they axed his mate Bolts.

Not to mention our style of play has completely changed...just a nuffie comment by nut to take an uneducated pot shot at Carlton.

From 1-10 this season to 5-4, with 2 losses by under a goal and the other 2 by 4 goals to the premiership favourites WC & Richmond...that's a pretty good form line.

 

[Substance]

I'm convinced all these interim coaches tanked the team as assistants to get the old coach fired. Good way to get a promotion.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Shaw if i was a betting man.

In Shaw's defense, he hasn't had the plethora of high end draft picks that Teague will get to work with..
