Some clubs just cannot be saved.

Irony or what. David Noble and Simon Lethlean were involved in this review.

I read Lethlean didn't want to extend Rats' contract.

EF me, Noble!

That's terrible.
Poor bloke has had a horrible few years.
Hope he cashes out of the footy game and has some time with his family.
Good bloke who has been dealt a bad hand.

So they admit their list isn't that good (we all know that).

So what do you do, sack the list manager who's been there for 4 years. Nope, lets knife the coach.

 

[Redford]

No wonder there’s rumours Wanganeen wants out. Just a *smile* club.

 

[mad_tiggy911]

Lets take Ratts and have the Aints pay 2 years of his wage.

 

[toothless]

Reckon Ratts got the best out of the list at his disposal. That combined with a newly signed 2 year contract to run and the timing, makes the decision mind boggling.

 

[checkside]

Rabble isn't the word. I thought he got a contract extension just a few months ago.

He did. July I think he signed it.
What a strange time to so sack a coach.

 

[WesternTiger]

At least they could have tried trading him over the past 10 days. Salary dumps were popular…

 

[BrisTiger24]

They must have been courting someone behind his back, surely. Staggering timing.

You'd assume it's one of the bigger names that get spoken about: Lyon, Hird, Figgy, maybe Leon Cameron

 

[The Big Richo]

I normally find the hubris and short memories around other clubs a bit unedifying but I'm all in here.

This is just a terrible decision, simply awful and I'd hope it will condemn them to years in the wilderness.

Carlton people speak very highly of Ratten as a coach and everyone speaks very highly of him as a man. Disgraceful really and exactly why I always say players should look after themselves and not the clubs.

 

[tigertim]

Hope we get to play them twice next year.

Yep, seems too obvious with this sudden act.

 

[craig]

Hird is available

 

[Bones17]

Maybe Blight or Thomas want another crack at Linton St.

 

[craig]

Just when you thought no team to sink to the depths of #lolNorf and the Druggies.

Yep.

Saints ....... Hold My Beer
