Carlton could offer Mick Malthouse continuing employment when his deal expires in 2015 Mick Malthouse could coach Carlton as long as he likes. CARLTON president Mark Logiudice says he is "not a big fan of contracts" and has indicated coach Mick Malthouse could be offered continuing employment when his deal with the Blues expires at the end of next season. Logiudice, speaking as Carlton's on and off field leaders detailed the club's new strategic plan, said the Blues would not enter discussions with Malthouse about his future until at least the middle of next season. Mick has got a contract for next year. It is pretty simple, that hasn't changed," Logiudice said. At the appropriate time, which I believe is halfway through, to the later part of next year, we will have a chat. My view is very simple, contracts are good for the people who receive them - they sometimes can burden clubs. Carlton president Mark Logiudice isn't a fan on contracts. This is not about Mick, this is about anyone employed in any organisation across the globe - if you are employed by an organisation, that is a commitment for everyone to move forward in a direction that is set by the organisation. I don't see why that needs to be any different for football or any code for that matter. We are all hung up on contracts. New Carlton chief executive Steven Trigg broke the mould when he made then-Adelaide coach Neil Craig part of the staff at the Crows in 2011. Trigg outlined new 10-point strategic plan to be implement across the whole club - highlighting a renewed commitment to developing a strong and united culture. Trigg and Logiudice both said Carlton's "quick fix" days were over. Mick Malthouse's contract ends after season 2015. "From my point of view as a new president coming in, I think we've had enough of the quick fix," Logiudice said. We need to build on the foundations that we have got. And it won't be a quick fix. We need to get a lot of things right to have the opportunity of more success. We're going to build a solid organisation that is going to be winning for a long time. It's not going to happen quickly. Skipper Marc Murphy is driving player input into a set of values - which he said were illustrated by the recent departures of Jeff Garlett and Mitch Robinson. The pair were involved in a fight in the city last August, and Robinson initially misled the club about his involvement. We tried to help those two guys enormously over the journey. It's just, how many chances do you give them? Murphy said. Jeff Garlett and Mitch Robinson (with Eddie Betts) lost the trust of the playing group. Malthouse said he remained "burdened" by the fanfare surrounding his record-breaking Round 5 clash against Collingwood next year. The coach will break the legendary Magpie mentor McHale's games record of 714 matches when the Blues take on the Pies - his opponent of choice - at the MCG next May. But Malthouse said he had been pleasantly surprised at receiving a letter from the AFL allowing him to choose an opponent for his record-breaker. He nominated Collingwood, he said, because of the financial benefit the game could bring to the Blues - as well as his and McHale's links to the black and white army. Malthouse said he did not hold any animosity toward Collingwood over his departure from the club at the end of 2011. "Right or wrong, I have a very small rear-vision mirror," he said. "The first thing I did was go to the chief financial officer and say "what is best for Carlton (financially)?. I've tried every way to deflect this but to have respect - because Jock McHale must be respected.
