Carlton End Alignment With Northern Blues.

[kruddler]

Its a return to the good old days (thank fark). Was listening to Ross Lyon talk about a recent coaching experience, he talked about when he coached the International Rules team, he said there was him, Clarkson (I think) and one ther coach and one IT guy. Thats it. He reckons they all commented about how much purer it was. Know I bet you will all moan and groan but I 110% agree with this. All we have done is copied the NFL (utterly crape game for mine) model for coaching numbers, the game is none the better IMHO.

As for drafting players with big tanks, atheletic abilities but cant kick a footy to save themselves, we are a prime example of this.

The NFL is different because they have positional coaches. As each position needs to be taught a completely different set of skills to another one.
Some blokes will touch it 99% of all plays they are on the ground
Some blokes will never touch a football in their whole career.
Some blokes the ball will only ever touch their hands.
Some blokes the ball will only ever touch their foot
Some blokes will never lay a tackle in their career
Some blokes will have body contact on every play of their career


All that being said....the NFL teams have 50 or so players suited up ready to get on the field on a moments notice....
...and they STILL only have 15 'coaches' on average.


So they need their coaches, we don't....and we still have more coaches/analysts and yes man.
