Who should we target as coach?

[Gets!]

I am sorry we need change.

Craig was in charge of what we saw today and it was ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE.

 

[maxlad]

bickley lol

 

[spexau]

Are Bickey or Viney up to it?

 

[Wokko]

Malthouse.

 

[Crow-mo]

well Craig stands for everything Blight doesn't. So I wonder how Blight is enjoying the coast? lol

 

[Gets!]

Malthouse.

Okay he'll do.

 

[The Karma Bus]

I have stayed off of the craig bashing wagon but ive been attracted to it more and more.

Ignore the injuries during the game today, we are way too robotic, boring, structured. And lack real toughness and unpredictability.

Look at games like collingwood vs saints the other night. How would we stand up in that? Would we play with a bit of mongrel?

Can we ever tackle?

We are too "nice"

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

someone who will get them playing with passion again

 

[juice]

Gets, you got to be kidding aren't u. Nothing to do with the coach.

Tippett - provide a bloody contest
Maric - have a little think prior to hand balling to a team mate under the pump
Doughty - senior player gave nothing
Burton - looked old and slow
Knights - disinterested
Rutten - no determination

many more examples of how the PLAYERS cost us the game. not the coach. this falls at the players feet for failing to be desperate and competing. don't let them off the hook.

I was thinking about this too. Crows loved playing the ultra attacking Blight gameplan rather than the Crobot Craig plan. Surely Blighty could be enticed back, that'd be a fairytale.

 

[mulz]

not sure but craigy has had is time at the helm, someone from outside the club needs to come in, this will be our worst season of all time this year.

 

[aneale]

If and its a big if they change, Malthouse would be the stand out choice. But I can't see it happening yet. I'd like to see Craig have ashocker of a season that wasn't destroyed by injuries before he gets hung drawn and quartered. Plenty of decent teams have a season where injury decimates any chance they have. Essendon in 1997 is the stand out example.

I most definitely AM NOT KIDDING.

What was with the constant handballing backwards, the lack of pressure, leading wide to the boundary line? COACHES ****ING INSTRUCTIONS.

 

[bus24]

There comes a time in every sporting organisation, where the coach loses the players - and Craig's style of coaching, and his style of play seems very condusive to exactly that.

It's a passionless setup, which has crept into the mentalities of the players.

 

[CaptainDangerfield]

Malthouse.

Not a bad idea. I'm not sure that in 12 months he would stand for being Buckley's assistant.

Please no former Crows players and whoever it is lets hope they appreciate hard nosed footballers over utilities and athletes. We need massive changes in coaches, player and culture.

 

[MickyCrow]

Ricciuto to come back and do a Vossy

[Stiffy_18]

You've got to be ****ing kidding me!

 

[juice]

same game plan that got us to within a kick of a prelim last yr???

C'mon at what point do the players take responsibility???

 

[Bazzmand Show]

Been a previous fan of Craig but Im tired of the same old crap happening, we are a virtual punching bag for opposition teams.
Todays game, know one stood up for Paddy.
Couple of years ago Port came out and nailed about 5 of our players nothing was said or done.
None of our players ever make the tackles hurt.
Absolutely no passion in our celebrations.

Craig I am so tired of his boring non-committed confrences. Mate show some passion, show something just anything apart from the shite ive seen this past few years.

 

[amer]

No coach could have prevented what happened out there today Gets. We had no players left on the bench. Disappointing, but it cannot be controlled.

 

[Sir Vlado]

Anyone who is not named Neil Craig.

 

[BACCS]

Gets, you got to be kidding aren't u. Nothing to do with the coach.

Tippett - Should not of played, serverly underdone.
Maric - Was nearly our best today, what game were you watching?
Doughty - senior player gave nothing-Agreed
Burton - Our most dangerous foward, again what game were you watching?
Knights - At least tried, can't expect much more with no pre season.
Rutten - Again more than held his own.

many more examples of how the PLAYERS cost us the game. not the coach. this falls at the players feet for failing to be desperate and competing. don't let them off the hook.

Are you ****ing kidding me, let me edit that for you. Craig needs a long ****ing hard look at himself. Apparantley Ayres wants back into coaching, anyone?

 

[BWST]

Choco ?

There was one who did, and that was Ivan Maric.
