The Blues coach needed everything to go right but as has been the case for much of his tenure, not a lot did. Teague, nor Carlton for that matter, will not be judged solely on an honourable loss to a top-four side. But taking a scalp like the Cats’ will have done no harm to Teague’s hopes of keeping his job. Now into his second full season in charge, his time is running out to illustrate some level of progress. With the Hawks coach gettable, Carlton must decide if they want to enter the race for the finest football mind of his generation.
