Chapter 1: What are the initial reactions to Michael Voss's resignation?
Wednesday morning.
This is your town. This is your station. This is Waitley. Good morning. The metaphor of the lifting fog. There it was on the drive in before first light. And now the dawning of the new day at Carlton. The exiting is done. The explanations have been offered and judgments have been cast. A notable addition in the events of yesterday was the departure of the list manager.
Tacit acknowledgement the failings of this era haven't been restricted to the coaching. The Carlton list is not built for imminent success and only the first steps of transformation have been taken. The hunt for picks has been declared. What the next iteration of Carlton looks like is very much uncertain.
And how long it takes to be ready to challenge consistently is a timeframe I suspect few of a navy blue persuasion will want to contemplate right now. This is a day the Blues have faced numerous times in the past quarter of a century. The invigorating task of searching for that new dawn.
Chapter 2: How has Carlton's coaching situation evolved over the years?
Criteria drawn up for the essential qualities required in a new coach, accompanied by a list of the best credentialed. And Carlton has tried them all. The Messiah, the succession plan, the favourite son, the brightest assistant, the caretaker and the recycled. All have failed.
So either previous administrations and their advisers have hired the wrong guy every time, or there's something rotten in the state of royal parades. It's in the walls. It's the cultural piece Carlton has to solve, or the next man in will suffer the same fate as the previous seven, chewed up and spat out.
Is the promise of Carlton the selling point, or is the reality of Carlton the cautionary tale?
It was on shaky ground and the inevitable was starting to become clearer. But the fighter in you and the competitor in you wants to, you know, take that as far as you possibly can. But no, look, I think during the week, last week was the first time I just sort of sat with a result the week before and
thought about where the group was at where the club currently was and maybe where they needed to go and just you know when you know thinking about that more deeply and reflecting on that i felt like it was time to elevate those conversations we had a project that was sizable the change in in player personnel the change in the coaches was significant
So being able to sort of bind that together and get that connecting really fast and getting some level of cohesion and doing it under the most extreme of pressure was maybe just too big a task to be able to handle. It doesn't mean that won't be solved in the coming weeks. It doesn't mean it won't be solved in the coming months.
