Culture

No, Mick was unable to keep Garlett (among many others') eye on the ball. These guys were flying under Ratts and dropped off ore and more under Mick. Mick was a confidence sucker. Garlett as just one victim of his inability to get players playing at their best.

Garlett and Mick were best mates in his 1st year. Garlett buddied up to him and was his kick to kick partner in the warmups. A role that daisy had at collingwood.

Now since then he sucked the life out of him to the point where he made Jeffy start ducking his head.
Do you believe the stuff you right?

No need, I'm just going by his immense drop in form coinciding with the change of coach and combined with others around him. Then of course the form reversal under the new coach. Maybe he would've gone better under the guidance of the inanimate carbon rod? After all, the coach does fk all. ????

Just like your brain if that's all you have got out of my posts on the matter.

It all leads back to the same thing with you. ????

So Mick is responsible for Robbo punching on at the big day out, Garlett's girlfriend troubles and Yarran's dad killing a bloke?

Mick sucked the life out of the club. What about every other bloke that stopped trying you got an excuse for them as well?

You're the one using Mick as an excuse for our player's shortcomings.

So have some players publicly since he left, albeit in a Thryleon kind of way. ????

I can't help but think that it is incredibly naive of you, Kruddler and Thry to use the players as an excuse for Malthouse's shortcomings.

The club finally realised that he was destroying our list and our culture and took action to remove him before it was too late.  No matter how you try to spin it, the appointment of Malthouse was a disaster.  It will be a real test of our culture, not to mention Bolton's character, to see if we can rebound from the lowest we've been since the worst days of Pagan.

One of the things we will never really be able to prove is what was holding our culture back. If things improve over the next season it will be a combination of new coaches, game plans, training strategies, development of players and all the people at the club, recruiting etc. All of these changes will be helping us move forward, but to point the finger at the previous coach will be a difficult prove. Getting a new coach will be the beginning of the new Carlton, but if that is where it happens is not the be all end all.

I do however feel strongly believe we must improve, develop and move to a better place than the bottom of the ladder. That can never, ever happen again and I suspect it won't.
