The "Ladies of Carlton" do not agree Lach.

I reckon Chris Judd would be happy to see Rob Wiley on the coaching team. See Sig

Nooo this guy is a muppet of the highest order.
Howdy guys, sorry for the drop-in, but great news with the Malthouse signing.
Also - getting Wiley on your coaching staff would be a massive get. Senior Assistant to Malthouse during his time here at West Coast.
Was an outstanding footballer, just about the finest goalkicking rover WA has produced in the past 50 years, but is obviously one of Malthouse's closest friends and confidantes. If Malthouse wasn't 100% trusting in him being able to do the job, he wouldn't be coming (if he's coming at all).
Mick on 3AW tonight had a few comments about the coaches. Said he wasn't making the call on the coaches that are at Carlton, that the people already there know them better than he does.
He said he has a certain structure (that has no senior assistant) and that the club needs to fill those positions, except that he definitely wants Rob Wiley.

Pretty sure McKay will be calling all the shots, likely with MM's concent. He's been very close to everything that has gone on all year coaching wise. I get the feeling he's basically been in a year long investigation of our off field department. McKay will cull who he feels should go, MM will bring who he can and that's what we will end up with. If MM doesn't like the job any of the other assistants do then they will be gone for 2014. Really hard for MM to make any calls regards player and staff cutting.

Hmm, Wiley is Mick's choice right? It is not directly quoted but that line about his salary to reflect what he is giving up is a little concerning. It has to be worth his while but I assume he wants to coach, not merely doing it for the cash. I reckon it is a great opportunity we are giving him as well. I just hope Mick's mates are seeing this as a big opportunity to hold out for cash and the figures we pay are reasonable. I hate how the media throw in potentially controversial lines like that.

You can't help wondering as to how the assistant coaches will be appointed.
Has Mick been given a budget to work towards?
Is Mick wishing to trim down the panel in order to get what he wants within that budget?
Have we a budget at all?

To me it seems we will pay/do anything at the moment to give us the best chance of a premiership in the next 3 years... it's almost as though the club thinks that since we havn't tasted success since 95, the 3 wooden spoons, the penalties and failure in 2012 is bad for business... and you know what they're right! You've gotta spend money to make money (eg: facilities, more coaching dept funds)... We're putting a lot of eggs in the Malthouse basket so lets hope it works...

It certainly seems that way, jj.
You just get the impression that certain benefactors were willing to chip in under certain proviso's and the coach was well on top of that list.
I do though think that Membership numbers will be very critical for us next year.
Swann has already indicated just how disappointed he was in this years numbers (and so he should be) and anything short of 50K next year is a non-negotiable.

Exactly our membership number no matter how you put it are Bad! When Richmond have more members, Hawthorn who by their standards in the late 90's to early naughties we're not flash and almost folded are now almighty, Essendon who bar the salary cap restrictions have been on par with us since 2003..
I know exciting footy is what we like... but in the end for us to build up financially.. get those members we need to ensure we win at all costs... it's risky but look at Collingwood throwing in millions on specialised training and facilities, now tailor made uniforms etc.. We need to reach and compete with the top teams now and since the death of Pratt we've just treaded water... I feel Sticks with having to probably faced and gotten over the hardest hurdle of his AFL life (sacking ratts) seems now really focused and hard-nosed from what I saw from the press conference yesterday...
We're at a phase in this clubs life where we need to throw everything now to compete and succeed or else we'll just tread water... and our supporters just aren't as loyal as the Richmond ones... we jump off too easily.

Given MM's reaction to Robbo yesterday- I think it is fairly well understood by that small handed drunken sailor - that he has no standing at Carlton. Expect a crescendo of ever increasing noise from this buffoon of an Essendon supporter.

Dont forget the media are gutter dwellers ODN.
The other night a CH 9or7 promo about 'we are the one's for exclusives' or words to that effect - had nothing but JMac pics running behind it. Sheez - some respect people not the right story to be boasting about, in fact who GAF if you are first.

Could care less what happens with our assistant coaching structure and whether the current crew stay or go*, but believe the Head Coach should have final say on his coaching personnel in order to give him every chance of success. Club hasn't managed that angle well in terms of the msg to the media (as usual), but at the end of the day those guys chose to work for Ratts and accept the consequences of success or failure of their coaching. If the new dude wants his own team, give it to him.
