Post Game Analysis: AFL 2020 Rd 2: Carlton vs Melbourne

[LP]

The decision to sack Ratten was terrible, but Malthouse is not a bad replacement.

We will have to agree to disagree.

Time passes everyone by, and in my opinion time had well and truly passed by Mick Malthouse long before he arrived at Carlton.

I think his appointment was more nostalgia than new direction!

Hmmm - you know 12 months before he came to us, he took Collingwood to the GF - 20 wins, 2 losses and a 167.7%. Whatever cliff he fell off in that 12 month period is probably located somewhere on the coastline along Royal Parade, and I think I know the exact spot. It's well known among the locals, a kind of Lover's Leap, but in reverse.

While I understand your general point, the truth is that Collingwood was MM’s dung hill, made in his own image.
How long was he there again ?
He was part of the furniture, to then uproot him and bring him  to the  new home at Royal Pde, he never fitted the decor...

That may be true, but why is it that several other coaches since 2000 have also 'failed to fit the decor?" Maybe the decor is the problem.........

Teague is Year 1 of a three year deal.  Given the current financial climate, the League would almost take action against any club that sacked and paid out.  It would also significantly reduce the pot in the soft cap (which has taken a beating anyway) as you would be paying off a sacked coach as well as new coach, which is turn would cost the places of two or three assistant coaches, medicos, well being officers or whatever.

Teague is going nowhere.

Good points.

Even if the results are disastrous?

Exactly. Our over riding priority has clearly been reset to getting wins in the short term using our older players. If that strategy fails the patience will quickly run out.

[Professer E]

I want to know why some of those older players are still on the list,  or put on there in the first place

If nothing else, Pittonet proved why Kreuzer was someone we should have replaced a while ago.
