Malthouse....the conundrum

'Mick Malthouse has been conspicuous in his lack of comment on multiple coaching vacancies. He is believed to be considering his options'

Perhaps adds some fuel to the fire???

Not alot more imo, tbh Caroline Wilson hasnt been onto any of the Coaching positions and was just about the last person to jump on the Scully to GWS bandwagon

It is to hard to speculate on Mick imo, if we keep getting linked with high profile coaches and nothing happens this makes me believe we are waiting on someone thats it

Or we are really in trouble one or the other

Maybe all you say is correct but the fact is that there was one coach out of contract and one coach who has now moved clubs. If I was one to read into words ( which I dont because no one is above spinning the truth including our Garry) you would question Garry's choice of words - "We have not missed out on any one" - yeah we have - two possibilities that we were reportedly linked with. "we are right on track" - if we are right on track then Clarkson and Lyon were never our real targets.

Just odd turns of phrase.

I tend to favour this line of thought.

Your last 15 words says it all "if we are right on track then Clarkson and Lyon were never our real targets".

IMO it has always been MM

If it was some else why have they not been appointment and announced?

Because he cannot be seen to accept till October 3rd.

If this were the outcome it would be the story of the decade.

There's also the chance that we already have our man signed, yet we're waiting until his finals campaign is completed out of courtesy.

I'm not sure if GL said when we tried to get an opportunity to talk to RL.

It's possible RL has dealt with Freo after we already decided on our coach, but before he was prepared to speak to us.

If we've signed Burns, Neeld or Malthouse, we could be showing them the courtesy of avoiding unnecessary media attention while they complete their finals campaign.

I know it's unlikely, but it's a possibility.

Remember Essendon went through a massive farce last year, when Hird was clearly the man a long time before being announced, yet the bombers still interviewed a lot of hopefuls.

I still can't figure out why.

Lyon (gary) was clear last nigh that the club had spoken to Lyons management only in the contaxt that he had a contarct and if he became available they would like to have a 'chat'. Nothing else. It never happened, not were we rejected.
