Watching the presser, they are a rabble.

Dr Hood sitting next to the bloke she just sacked saying he's a really good person, there's lots of really good people in the club and she's not interested in wholesale change.

Good luck Spargo and Dutchy, you blokes are loyal to the bone but I reckon the test you've been getting is only on page 1.

Any info given as to why the was sacked? If it's down to poor performance, that puts a lot of pressure on the new coach to get quick results - potentially at the expense of long-term success. I.e. this could root the club even worse.

If it's due to Noble supposedly 'losing the group', then it's a weird time to do it after their best performance in weeks.

Noble came out looking the best I thought.
I'm not sure I could handle the dribble the management came out with.

Clubs will be lining up to speak to his manager, he'll have time to reset then have suitors galore.

Poor bastard has been let down here.

The fact they brought up priority picks during this presser sums up this situation perfectly... Noble just a scapegoat.

If it weren't for the big $alary, you'd almost say Noble will benefit the most from the divorce, i.e. due to being shot of a club who brings up priority picks when they're giving you the arse.

How did that Ben Amarfio bloke get a gig.

Didn't he get the sack from Cricket Australia for poor behaviour...forced his secretary to cook his breakfast or some rubbish. Then there was some kind of issue when he was sacked as well and it all got messy...

Cant remember the full story but remember him making the news for it.

How long has he been at the Roos, has he been any good for them?

As a Carlton supporter all I can say is it’s a long road ahead if you keep churning through coaches.

Haven't we seen this play out badly!

The concerning part of what I've read to date is that the Pres (is that Hood?) says that they have a good list.

No. No, you don't. If you are delusional enough to think you do, you're in more trouble than you think.
