Statement You Would Like To See From New Carlton Coach

Whoever this person might be, what is the one thing you would like to hear him (we ready for a her? I am) say about the team - not the club, the team. Here's mine:

I have a very clear idea about what a premiership winning style of football is and exactly the type of players that are requisite to achieving that. I bring very clear standards with me and from the captain down, these will be adhered to with a focus on players making each other accountable. From here on, only one thing matters; developing a premiership winning style of play and building a list to best execute that style. The entire football department is aligned with my agenda and with SOS and (new recruitment manager) on board, I'm confident in our ability to assemble the type of list we're aiming for sooner rather than later.

* I'd like to believe that something like this is going to be happening at our club.
 
"Let me make this clear, there is no more rebuilding. Forget the last year, forget the last ten, we as a team are going to build a new culture. A new Carlton. A Carlton molded by shared success and shared defeat. When one man triumphs, he elevates all others. When one man bleeds, we all bleed with him. When one man fails, we have all failed.

From this point on, you will not tell me, the club, our fans anything - you will bloody well show them why they should have faith in you and dedicate their time and money to see you play. You show them that and they will love you, but you will have to earn that love every time you pull on the jumper.

Every single one of you has an opportunity to become a club legend, and every single one of you has an opportunity to share that status with your best mates. You have the greatest job in the world - but the minute you start treating it as a job you will fail. Every day, every week, every year is a battle. A battle to create a dynasty that will go down in club history.

This discussion is now finished, and it will not be repeated by anyone. When a new player joins our club it will be your responsibility, as a team, to set the standards and expectations. You will do this with your actions. It will become the core of who we are and what we represent, and there will be no questioning our resolve."

That's bold.

We are going to run a series of tests to see who gets a new contract and who is looking for a new home.

Test 1 - run the tan with Craig Bradley. If you get beaten by more than 20% of his time, you're off the list.
Test 2 - kick the ball at a target further than Diesel can handpass. If you miss the target by more than 2 meters, off the list.
Test 3 - handball at Harry Madden running past. If the handball goes behind him or is too low for him to catch, off the list.
Test 4 - tackle Ryan Houlihan, if you cannot bring him down, off the list.
Test 5 - goal kicking with Earl Spalding, 10 shots. Miss more than him ..... you get the drift.

Draw the team logo from memory and name 3 other players who have worn your jumper in a premiership or for 200+ games. Get it wrong, you can GAGF.

Any questions?
 
We also need leaders.

Test 6 - you play the staring game with Bruce Doull. If he talks before you do, you're out.
Damn, that will leave Kreuzer and .......... nope, just Kreuzer.
