Yes, quite true. A terrible situation 24 hours away from the season opener.

I'd get SOS onboard to do a list review, map out a plan, get him to head up the panel and choose a new list manager and start again...
D. Armfield as the new coach....

Would love him back in the coaching team, but not as head coach. Need someone who has been a head coach before. I'd be seriously trying to get Shaun Smith from Richmond. Only signed up as the AC for their women's team earlier this year, but might be enticed by a the head coach role. He did an awesome job when he was in charge of the St Kilda Sharks, and given Bri Davey's history with that club, he might be enough to keep her (and others) on board.

I've heard that after the AFLW finals the AFL are going to announce some changes to the competition rules for 2019. I've no idea what they might be, I've just been warned to stay tuned. There have been some alleged meetings between the stakeholders as recently as this week.
So I wouldn't be surprised to hear little from the club until after that announcement.

There are clearly some issues around the list... but we were competitive last year, and won our first 2 games this year.
Then it all went to sh1t after Davey got injured... but at that point, our list wasn’t looking completely hopeless. Take the star player out of the AFLW teams and it makes a huge difference (although we have fallen off a cliff).
New coach, new game plan, get some new players in... I’m not saying we haven’t had issues, but the article/blog is way over the top.
As for players getting upset or Davey wanting out - if that’s the case (and we should remember it is speculation)... then we should be trading them out pretty quickly.
Also need to keep in mind the AFLW was thrown together quickly... teething issues around communication and structure would be expected.
Re: Position vacant: Carlton AFLW Senior Coach - PaulP - 03-21-2018
Bear, those teething issues seem to be mainly affecting us. In fact, to all outward appearances, we are the only club that has fallen in heap. That's the big worry for mine.
Re: Position vacant: Carlton AFLW Senior Coach - mateinone - 03-21-2018
Get a very successful local football coach.
Not a successful local women's coach, but if they want someone who has been success at a level below AFL, look in that direction.

There are clearly some issues... i’m not denying that. Some key people have been moved on.
Need to be careful about no-name websites writing “articles” that contain a lot of rumours... and saying that our existence is threatened, or the AFL should step in is a massive call.
Especially when you click on the author’s name, and he looks like a 15 year old who has been smoking bongs while listening to some early Metallica records on high rotation.
