Part 2 of this thread is here:

 
Because media attention is a good thing. You want it.

Without it then you’d have just sacked your coach and nobody gives a toss how or why it was done. You’d have become irrelevant.

I'll rephrase. Negative media attention.
 
Richmond showed zero integrity buttering up a contracted senior coach. Don’t blame Carlton.

Dimma: “If the review doesn’t go your way and you lose your job as senior coach of Carlton give me a call”

What a disgraceful and disrespectful thing for Dimma to say to a fellow coach getting slammed from every angle. Shame on you Hardwick, show some integrity and respect for Carlton’s review process and only call Teague with support after he is turfed out onto his ar*e.

Cripps/doc/Murphy odds on to be leading the sack group

Although the last-ditch effort was ultimately unsuccessful, CEO Cain Liddle was left in no doubt that several important players would have preferred the board keep Teague for 2022.
Among the players to voice their support were the Curnow brothers, Sam Walsh, Harry McKay, Jacob Weitering and Nic Newman.
Adam Saad, Zac Williams, Caleb Marchbank, Liam Stocker, Liam Jones and Tom De Koning are also believed to have spoken favourably of Teague in the review.
It’s understood a section of the playing group is livid with the board, partly for sacking Teague, but also for dragging it out until the Thursday after the season.
Up until Wednesday evening, there were players who believed Teague’s job was safe.
The press conference didn’t inspire me…some porkies told which is embarrassing.
CEO continued backing the coach in throughout the season. He did not pick-up on the lack of cohesion in the football department which is a slight on his capabilities.
playing group were dysfunctional…responsibility rests with the head of football and coach…not one…both should’ve been shown the door.

We now find out Sayers was chatting to Ross Lyon and hosting him at his house from mid-year. Do Carlton fans still want to talk about the integrity of the review and waiting for its findings before making any decisions.

What a great way to start your presidency …. canvass others for the coaching job 10-weeks before the review that judged the coach was handed down and before finals were out of the question.

But no…. Carlton fans in here defend the process 🧐.

It's just full of deflection onto other teams, most who acknowledge their own teams shortcomings (or In Richmonds case, the potential cyclical nature of success in footy).

Collingwood or North failing does not make Carltons bizarre board management any better.
 
There was not a single leak. Share one. A tweet, an article, anything. Go on.

So the media are all fortune tellers? Even though we know Sayers talked to Lyon months ago, even though the reports were Teague was being sacked a month ago... And so on.

****.

Hey Sam McClure, what's this week's lotto numbers?
 
Yes, no one knew a single thing about Teague being sacked, Lyon being courted, or board members leaving prior to Carlton's announcement yesterday. Watertight.

It was clear from the results of 2021 he would have a hard time keeping his job. That came from Teague himself.
Lyon being "courted" came from Lyon himself.

Share a leak bro. Go on.

fu**.

Absolutely they are not. They make random pot shot predictions and hope it goes their way.

Majority said Teague was getting the arse Monday and they all could not have been more wrong, because they had no clue. No leaks.

I’ll agree that there are certain media types who often make calls before they have enough information, but I wouldn’t say they make random pot shots as they’re right more than they aren’t.

And is, they said he’d get sacked on Monday but he got sacked on Thursday therefore their information was false really the hill to die on?

Well the fact he wasn't sacked until ~6pm Wednesday, sorta yes, indicates their mail was wrong or worse, false.

Anyways my point is there were no leaks. Invited others to share said leaks, nada, nothing yet.

Don't blame Carlton?

Teague knew he was gone. His comments to the media said as much. Carlton butchered it. They've clearly gone after Ross Lyon for months - reports yesterday confirm as much.

Ofcourse we butchered the process. That does not mean we can’t act in our best interests if we felt the review was moving that way. Teague and Richmond certainly didn’t give a damn.

It would’ve been negligent to wait until a day after sacking Teague (today!!) to pick up the phone and speak to prospective coaches.

Posters like Jordan need to save their outrage for outrageous things.
 
Not at all. It’s just amusing so many Carlton tragics have been defending their ‘review process’ when it was clearly a complete sham to provide an external ‘excuse’ to turf Teague. Such a gutless board.

They've been a gutless board but hope a few changes might improve them, they really don't need an excuse for sacking Teague other that he was out coached far too many times.
 
Saying the club "expects to be playing finals next year" puts a lot of pressure on the coach and staff right off the bat.

I look at it from another perspective.

'expecting to play finals' puts everyone on notice that from this point on, close enough is not good enough, mediocrity will not be tolerated and most importantly, explains why people have been pushed out the door.

If we don't want to set higher standards and work to them, we have nothing more of substance & belief to offer anyone

Saying the club "expects to be playing finals next year" puts a lot of pressure on the coach and staff right off the bat. Hypothetically let's say Carlton lose the first against the Tigers and get unlucky with an Eagles round 2 and then play Geelong round 3. Probably all three are losses. They have now already opened up for the barrage of media attention on your new coach from reporters after clicks. "Are Carlton going to make finals", "will they sack their new coach", "is the season looking like another Carlton failure" etc. etc. etc.

They've gone through this whole football department review and it bought them time. A couple of years at least where they can say they're working through the required changes from the report. Instead they've put a literal one year timeline where it's finals or failure right off the bat.

Obviously every team should be aspirational in looking to play finals each year. But after such a big year of negativity in the media around the club, why add fuel for next year?

EDIT: Noticed I was a few pages early and a few have pointed this out, so not expecting a response and not meant to be a pile on.
Members would rather hear him say that than we are aiming for 9th.
 
Waiting for you to share a single link. You made the claim. Back it up.

You refuse to accept that the leaks were leaks, and were simply 'common knowledge' despite them being leaks. So I don't think I really need to bother, do I?

So yet again, apart from all the leaks, there were no leaks. Watertight.
 
I'd forgotten you carried on like a teenager.

So aside from all the leaks, there's no leaks. Got it.
Prove there is a leak mate and I'll stop posting in this thread, come on how easy is that?
