Do people realise Ratten is our forwards coach?

Whilst we are at it Cairnsy/Highett, what are your credentials such that your opinion holds significantly more weight than mine and anyone elses for that matter on this forum?

Re: Brilliant for us that Bolts is gone....
No coach would have been successful with that Carlton team. And Ratten at least already has senior coaching runs on the board.whiskers3614 wrote: ↑Mon 03 Jun 2019 3:27pmAnd under whom did Bolton get his assistant coaching experience?The_Dud wrote: ↑Mon 03 Jun 2019 3:22pmBetter than 50% winning record as a head coach, spent years under Clarko at the most successful club in recent history.whiskers3614 wrote: ↑Mon 03 Jun 2019 3:18pmCan anyone tell me what Ratten has achieved that makes him the Messiah?freely wrote: ↑Mon 03 Jun 2019 3:05pm If we do nothing, Ratten to North (unless Rhyce Shaw hangs on), Scott to Carlton.
But movement at North and Carlton might force the board's hand. Then we might see Ratten use a bit of bribery to insist on an offer of the top job with us where we'd rather he just mind the shop till the end of the season.
It’s a good start.
Not saying he’s the messiah, but he has one of the better resumes.

Re: Brilliant for us that Bolts is gone....
Carlton's list and side is no good. They are very poor. They kicked 4 goals on the weekend against an average side missing tons of players.

I reckon Playfair is our no 1 assistant. He has done wonders with our backline this year.

Re: Brilliant for us that Bolts is gone....
McGovern and McKay...please. Average at best.
Cripps is getting banged up from being no 1 and tagged and the Curnow brothers are overrated.
Walsh will be good.
But I don't care about the Blues, I follow the Saints.

Re: Brilliant for us that Bolts is gone....
I'd cool the Jets on ratten as coach for the time being simply because he has given no indication he wants the top job. Infact most comments indicate he is happy Being 2ic.
To me it seems like Scott was approached by Carlton and he liked what he heard it got offered, roos found out or he told them and they told him to pack up and go. now he has six months off before he goes to Carlton who have so much untapped talent it is staggering

McKay & Curnow will give opposition teams nightmares for the next decade.
Cripps is an absolute freak. Blues will land a gun FA this offseason to go with him and protect him.
Walsh only going to keep getting better.

Any team that has two players who would not get a game at Collingwood as captain and vice has real list problems!
