Eddie McGuire: Paul Roos "obvious choice" to fix Carlton

Featured Replies

Did anyone see this bizarre tirade on Fox post match tonight?

McGuire interjected no less than 4 times between a heated debate between Hall and Maclure when discussing the next Carlton coach. Apparently the choice for Carlton is "obvious" according to Eddie, he says the AFL need to put Roos in place.

Says he's the perfect coach for the AFL to assign to all the basketcase teams in the league, because they'll just keep forking out $1.5m a year for him to do it.

Not sure what to make of this one but we know Eddie doesn't do anything without an agenda. Is he trying to destabilise us or was it just a veiled dig at the AFL bailing out the crap clubs?

He wasn't even correct in saying the AFL are footing the bill for Roos.

 

I wish Eddie would talk up more some of the more insidious and destructive cancers that are damaging our game like for example drug abuse in football.

I personally think Nathan Buckley would be a great fit for Carlton. I know he's got a few things on his plate at the moment, but I'm sure the AFL could just step in and assign him to the Carlton role without too much destabilisation or trouble to his existing club...

Roosy, why would he want it.

just little e'd everywhere, trying to get under our skin, under the bluebaggers skin, & under mnm's skin as well, sort of rubbing it in, & the fact it's e'd, adds salt into the cuts.

but he's just really a frustrated old-man, with a permanent brewers droop, is little e'd.

maybe they could teach the cloke'n'dagger, to kick proper. it seems no one wants to be around e'd & his butler. just ask young beams.

irrelevant is becoming e'd. e'd, is becoming irrelevant.

Paul Roos would be a good fit for any club in the league.

Eddie isn't silly, he is just using the bail out excuse to get ahead of the discussion.

If Eddie can drum up some outrage about a bail out before it happens - then it's unlikely Carlton will see any AFL money.
That would be a win for Eddie (Collingwood).


Shame he's contracted to another club hey Eddie?

Paul Roos does not need or want the Carlton job.

He wants a life style change once he finishes coaching and an involvement at the Dees during the season when he's not in Hawaii.

Eddie is talking through his oversized cloaca.

I don't think Paul Roos has any interest in being a modern day Winston Wolfe.

Eddie probably has a point though, Roos for 2/3 years with a succession plan would be a good fit for Carlton as they are eerily similar to us back in 2013. It's really too bad that we got him.

 

I sometimes wonder if McGuire has a cocaine habit the way he just blabs on about rubbish he thinks makes perfect sense.


Hope we smash em more now on Qbday

He wants a life style change once he finishes coaching and an involvement at the Dees during the season when he's not in Hawaii.

I hope that's true, but I saw him say recently when he's done at the end of 2016 he's going to be done with footy.

Is he allowed to talk about stuff going on at his own club?

No

Oh I think sit is quite simple. Queens Birthday is coming up next week and Eddie maybe is getting a little bit worried about a match he probably pencilled in as a certainty. It certainly won't be, particularly if we win today.

Obviously trying to take Roosy's eye off the ball. Fat chance!!!

Or trying to get an ill-considered bite back that favourite son can use for motivation.

Again - Fat chance!!!

(as long as Chris Dawes stays away from any microphones)

I hope that's true, but I saw him say recently when he's done at the end of 2016 he's going to be done with footy.

That's probably because of all the energy he is using to coach Melbourne, he will need the rest of his life to relax and recover!

Hope we smash em more now on Qbday

Yep - at first I thought "Jackson needs to come out and slam Eddie over this" but then I thought, "Nah stuff that, better to just remain quiet and smash them next week"


FFS.

Fat bogan [censored] from Broady with your faux intelligence .

I've met people who start to think they are Kerry Packer once they work for them.

It's hilarious.

I call it Packer by association.Half of Sydney has it too.

Shows mental frailty .

Shitteatter.

Typical. Now that Carlton have hit the skids the armchair experts like Eddie come out and start airing their opinion on matters that don't concern them.

I sometimes wonder if McGuire has a cocaine habit the way he just blabs on about rubbish he thinks makes perfect sense.

certainly gets the whiteline fever when footy comes into frame.

Go on e'd have a crack....

Well that would be too big an ask but Eddie who seems to have loud opinions on everything tends to avoid this the biggest elephant in the room even in general and holistic terms.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.
