Malthouse is too old, Bolton / Teague too young and inexperienced. Malthouse is too grumpy and unpleasant, Teague is too nice. bolton's game plan is too complex, Teague's is too simple.

Whether we go wth black or white, it never works.

Which simply proves, yet again, as Chomsky said, outside of a few very small areas of knowledge, nobody knows much about anything.

I don't think I've heard many FA's nominate GWS as their preferred destination. And I don't mean oldies on their last legs. The job GWS have to build a successful club and culture is pretty difficult IMO.

I also have mixed feelings about SOS, but we're always riding the blame merry-go-round, because if you rate SOS, it must be development, or the coach, or Russell or..........................

How many GWS players are there on the recent premiership winners lists?..Townsend at the Tigers.....
Richmond, Hawthorn, Bulldogs, West Coast havent really over done the GWS theme have they?

I've watched Carlton training over the last few years...pre Covid and since

Everything is at cruise control...nice running patters and most kicks hit targets...there is zero match simulation and pressure on kicks and tackles..no wonder we melt under full match conditions

Goal kicking practice a joke...sit there with 20 footys and kick away...no man on the mark or do a quick  20m sprint and have heart rate up when shooting ..like match day..what a joke
