Football Department Review

[madbluboy]

One has to wonder, with this newfound emphasis on (wait for it).............winning games of football, how does this affect the new coach ? It seems clear to me that the club is expecting results instantly, so if it's Lyon, he will want to remake the team in his image, as all coaches do. How long will it take him to take the boys from attack to defence, bigger, stronger bodies, more tackling, more stoppages, etc. ? Can you do that in 1 pre season ? It seems highly likely that there will be a down period while he tinkers to get things on his terms. What if he misses finals next season ?

Surely the quickest way forward is to stick with Teague and iron out the kinks, rather than yet another dramatic change ?

If Clarko or Lyon come in it will have to be another reset. It won't be as bad as when Mick took over a team on the slide but it will take some time to bring a more defensive style to Carlton.
