My guess is that it's not the selection process that's troubling Lyon. I presume he's concerned about the reason for the shift in thinking which suggests there are people on the Board who don't want him. If I were Lyon, I wouldn't want to coach any club that didn't have unanimous Board support for my appointment. I think he's been wise to avoid a fractured club. 

Yeah, it sounds like Ross was told that if Clarko said no, the job was his, and the concerns around him have forced the blues to re-think and rather than approve the Sayers plan to just sign Ross Lyon, the board has forced the process to be undetaken due to the concerns and division. and Ross is obviously frustrated because he was under the impression he was being head hunted. I still think there is a live possibility that Ross Lyon ends up being the senior coach of Carlton though.

    They haven't got the guts to appoint another untried coach.

    Yze won't be going there.

    I hope Lyon goes there and they screw it up again.

    If it's not Clarkson or Lyon, is it Buckley or Voss now?

    And funnily enough would Collingwood have preferred Lyon to Macrae had Ross not appeared to have been wedded to Carlton?

    Both Carlton and Collingwood seem like clubs lost in the wilderness, similar to the journey Melbourne went through post the Gutnik years. Only a desperado would apply for a coaching gig at these symbols of dysfunction.

    100% agree with the mental crushing this would have on anyone. No doubt the 500 off K he will b paid out will help in fincancial security but no one likes to have their profession publicly humiliated and degraded. I suppose thats the industry butstill pretty sas for him.

     

    Ross Lyon comes across as a dog of a guy. Not quite Malthouse level.

    Why do you say Malthouse is a dog?? I’ve heard people say this about him before but I don’t think I’ve heard any stories to go along with it. Why is he disliked?

    I see a lot of similarities with Carlton right now to when we hired Neeld.

    Old coach fired after only a few years
    Bring in the club legends to pick the new coach
    Experienced senior coach pulls out of the race because the selection process seems a bit scuffed (Sheedy and the powerpoint)

    I hope for their sake it goes a little better than it did for us.

    Don't understand why Buckley would want to follow the Malthouse route and go to Carlton. Better off earning big bucks in the media, then coming back in 3-4 years at somewhere that isn't a complete basket case.

    His grandkids went to the same primary school as our kids. On grandparents day, he turned up and ate all the biscuits.

    Enough said.

    I don't think the other grandparents would have minded as much.

    Is Justin Leppitsch under consideration or was he burned by his experience in Brizvegas when they had a cr@p list?

    Good pick up - his commentary on Ch 7 has been very insightful....covers the game like a coach...

    I thought he is a package deal with McCrae (ie Collingwood bound?)

    Was assistant coach at Richmond during their flag era and is highly regarded. However has moved out of coaching for media gigs.

    Things going swimmingly at Princes Park.

    Out Liddle in Cook, I reckon AFL might get involved to give Cook a push to save this sinking ship.

    Anyone know if they had a "Is Teague the right guy..." thread on Carlton BigFooty?

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
