So build your case by naming more suitable and credentialed replacements - otherwise it's just change for change sake.

Your lack of resilience is breath taking.

Jack, after your relentless attack on Malthouse and promotion of Buckley three or four years ago, how can anyone take anything you write on this topic seriously?

One suspects that you will always call to sack the incumbent whenever things are not going well. People have falsely called you a Hawthorn supporter before; I guess they can't tell the difference between brown and black.

I'd rather us play like Hawthorn did last night that's for sure David.

The silent majority support you Jack. I am proud to say I am a big fan of your posts. You speak the truth. The blind dumb fans of our Club that have caused it to fail on the field under this current coaching mob are the real cause of the problems our team face. They live in dumb denial and attack anyone who speaks the gospel truth. Shame on them.
I love this club and I hold anyone in contempt who does not think it is worth fighting for.

Hiss, it would be nice if you showed as much support to the club as you do to Jack Spain.

Can you please explain your (consistent) statement that it is the fault of the dumb fans of the club that have caused it to fail on the field. Just how is this the case?

Players yes, coaches perhaps but how is our on-field success/failure determined by the fans?

Bucks deserves one more season, to see out his contract, to show what he has with hopefully a full list to choose from. But, should we fail again, he would have to be looked at,for sure. Would anyone have a problem with someone like Mark Thompson taking us over, if we could get him ? He must be sick of playing second to pretty boy hird, and Bomber could be just the type of very experienced coach we need. !

We have gone backwards at a pretty alarming rate & are now about as exciting to watch as grass growing in your back yard. Can we afford another year of this game plan? Mark Thompson has no interest to be a senior coach again. He likes time off & being an assistant allows him to do that.

The last time Carlton missed the 8 they sacked their coach. Could be a very good experienced coach available at the end of the season ;).
Well done boys!

^^^ I just did the ladder predictor (again) and have them finishing 3 games clear out of the 8 (fair guesses; no wishful thinking). Lucky he said winning games isn't important.
