I cant believe Malthouse's name hasnt been bandied about.
It wouldnt take to much too sway his decision given the predicament he now finds himself in.
All those that say the game has gone past him have rocks in their head. The blues list is a basket case.

We should have traded Trigg for him.

Loving the input from all the long time sleeper posters in this thread who rarely post. Great stuff bringing the tribe together. Seems like everybody feels this is a pivotal moment in the club's history.
Here tonight I clock a thousand heads
Here to unite, through common dreads

Hooray...it's officially Tuesday! Here it is...the day we've been waiting for since Jars broke it on radio late last week.
Clarko is coming!!!
So what time will the AFC announce a press conference? Before or after lunch??

I would like to see them roll out the coaches over this week with the head coach being announced friday. Let them eliminate possible head coaches one by one and get a bit of positive media coverage and create some excitement!

Would almost look like a media move from someone in the entertainment industry. Such theatre

Should be done on channel 7, 9 and 10 live in front of a 50,000 strong crowd at 7pm each night until all os revealed. They can strut onto the catwalk style stage, high five the crowd being crushed in the front rows and then they can settle back onto the couch and take some questions from ellen Degeneres. Maybe even a little bit of tom cruise couch jumping!

You know who was an assistant coach before becoming a premiership winning head coach? Alistair Clarkson.
Very true, but I haven't seen any assistant coach that we are supposed in talks with that shows any signs of clarko/woosha/bomber!

I will talk it in my stride if I am wrong but I don't see Bassett or Bolton making it happen but hey, I don't know what I'm talking about as I'm not on the crows board. They seem to have everything under control

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Appointing Bassett is the brave move, the smart move, the right move. A fresh head coach for a fresh new future!
It must be hard for the Club choosing between Dew or Bassett, Dew is well credentialed and experienced, but Bass has plenty of runs scored in other areas. Has a similar profile to Clarko when he first started out.

Bolton would be a mistake.

Excitement does makes a big difference in motivation to post.

Not one to really post in the larger argument threads unless I feel I have to step in and cover a point that already hasn't (it pretty much hasn't happened, full credit to people stating points in most things.)

This stuff is just genuinely exciting, and brings them all together in wait.

I'm so missing the media speculation and names being bandied about...
Im not in Oz at present but do check this mammoth thread for the best update on the web.

You are so spot on MMo_O
If we don't get this right then we could be in shitters ditch for awhile while the next prospective coach (after the one about to be appointed) gets out a ten foot pole.
Personally, I'd like Bass:thumbsu:
