Michael Voss says he has not addressed his future with club chiefs, but insists all parties remain unified as the Carlton coach fights to save his job.
The blowtorch has been put on Voss – and the Blues – after they were humbled by North Melbourne last weekend and endured the loud boos of supporters, leaving them with a 6-8 win-loss record and clinging to hopes of making the finals ahead of Thursday night’s pivotal clash against Port Adelaide in Adelaide.

Speaking in Adelaide on Wednesday, Voss declared the Blues, with their contested possession mantra, were still “a pretty impressive brand to watch” when asked whether he was confident his game plan would stand up against the league’s best teams, but conceded they had failed to consistently produce a rounded game plan.
“Nah, I do. I think it’s a pretty impressive brand to watch. It’s hard to talk down being the No.1 contested team in the competition, so it’s something that if you want to be good at and known for, it’s in the effort indicators of this game,” Voss said.
“Whether that’s tackling or whether that’s contested footy, you want to be good at it. I don’t think there would be a team in the land that wouldn’t want to be sitting in that spot.
“But, obviously, clearly, you have got to be able to balance that out with other things in your game. What we acknowledge is that we are not that balanced profile yet. We are busily working away at it, and we have had two parts right in games, but we haven’t got the third part right.”
