Do it. Failing that ive seen suggestions of Bomber Thompson and Paul Roos also. Any one of these three would be excellent additions. Stay away from Dew, Ratten, or Tudor. You dont need any of these "untried" coaches, what you need is an experienced coach, who's had success ages ago (or in the case of RTB, not at all).

New coaches suck. You guys dont want to end up like us and Bolton. You guys want to be the next Freo, *, or Melbourne. Things are working well for them and you could be the next them! :thumbsu:

You're confident. Three wins in a row will do that, I guess.

I'll give that a 6.5, mostly for the effort.
 
True MB, the elusive pennant...

Yep.

I understand that just being in the race is looking pretty good right now, but we have no need for Lyon. Never mind the aesthetics, he just doesn't coach a brand of football that is a flag winner.

So, seeing as we can't get the real Al Clarkson, let's do our due diligence and go find the next one. Some awkward speaking, ordinary looking assistant with a bad haircut (you could probably help them out with that :D), sitting away in a coaches box somewhere, just waiting for a chance...

Would Lyon be so bad for us? He may be out of a job at the end of the year.

He can get teams to gell and play good football. I don't care if its dour and boring, as long as its successful. Winning is never boring. Given our youth, he wouldn't need to do a runner for 6 or so years.:D
Can't see anyway that Ross isn't at Freo next year. I don't think the Dockers can afford to pay out a five year contract at what they are paying him.

Unless we take over the contract...

Ha, I would take Melbourne's position over Carltons any day of the week.

Ratten's not an untried coach you fool. Have you forgotten what your shit stain of a club did to him?

Im answering you collectively not because I was trolling you but because you're still thinking old guard. The days of poaching a coach who won a flag a decade ago to fix your club are gone.

Ross lyon? Whats he done. Seriously.
Thompson? He was #eco even when he was at the bombers.
Paul Roos? That guy is ****ing past it. He's in the process of handing over. He wont coach anothrt club.

Get with the times man. Or not. Sign a has-been, like what we did with Malthouse. Or what we did with Pagan. Keep that boys club mentality and sign Maxwell. I don't give a flying.

Just stay away from Ratts. You cant have him.

Would be happy to give Ratten a go anyone from a successful club

Brett Ratten
Cameron Bruce
Stuart Dew
Nigel Lappin
Blake Caracella
 
Think at this point it would actually be a good idea to listen to a Carlton fan when they talk about chasing quick fixes etc. They know better than most the pitfalls of misjudging your list and going for a coach based on reputation.

Except for the whole "Carlton fan" part. I'd rather listen to a hippo giving birth. ;)
