Wonder if they'll have a player clean out?

Will Daisy hold his spot? I reckon they'll can him.

I'm pretty sure they'll be holding on to Charlie Curnow , Cripps and McKay.

Barrett:

"His proper calling at the highest level of the game may, though, be as a senior assistant coach anyway, and he is a certainty to assume such a role next year.

He has a very close relationship with Brisbane coach Chris Fagan, and it would not surprise to see him at the Lions from 2020."

Niall:

"Despite the various statements of support for Bolton this year and embarrassing protestations that the club was backing him, the Blues have made the correct call; it is hard to imagine many of their rivals hanging on to a coach with that record for as long as they did.

If anything, the Blues had postponed the sacking, clinging to the increasingly dim hope of a turnaround. No one said it, but the suspicion is that they stuck with Bolton for as long as they and their supporter base could bear because they didn't want to reinforce the damaging cliche that Carlton executes coaches like no other club.
...

Whatever Carlton does next, the next coach will inherit a playing list that is far better than 1-10 and will have a far better prospect of success than did Bolton, who was tantamount to an appointed administrator taking over a broken enterprise.

But Carlton has broken him."

I would encourage Carlton to appoint Mick Malthouse as head coach and Robert Walls as senior assistant coach
They then can trade out Cripps and a couple others and get in another Daisy or McGovern
Should ensure Carlton are dead and buried forever inside 5 years

"Although club officials are remaining tight-lipped, The Age understands the panel will consist of chief executive Cain Liddle, football boss Brad Lloyd, football director and club legend Chris Judd and board member David Campbell.

Campbell is a partner at Egon Zehnder International, one of the world’s leading advisory and recruitment firms and a lifelong Carlton fan."

Bolton joins Hawthorn. Fancy-sounding title, but what he'll do they don't say.

Imagine getting sacked from Carlton - of all places - and made Director of Football at Hawthorn. He must be pi$$ing himself laughing. That's a bit like being delisted by Gold Coast and made captain of Collingwood.

Maybe Bolts will dispel the "it's not you its me" myth by proving that

"It's not me...it was YOU!!"

All Silvagni did was pinch the intellectual property of the Giants. As undeserving pay cheque like his Team of the Century spot.
Annoying opposition supporters since 1967.
