I'm just bored and theorising.

I suspect it's more they need to learn how to play together better.

I thought so.

I get it too. Its a real conundrum sitting on the outside listening to rumours from media and supporters.
The awful thing about Chinese whispers is they start with spit balling, or with malice in mind, and the turn into something Fair dinkum mate.

Like Franky said Sam is one to say anything for a buck.
Got his chance at 3AW on the chance he would make things up and where the consequences.

I couldn't give a stuff, if true, he doesn't barrack for Carlton anymore.
His type is the last I want barracking for Carlton.
There's a bit of Judas about Sam and any Carlton rumour mongering supporters (if that's what you call them)

LOL you fools think you have more contacts inside AFL walls than AFL journalists?

Look I don't like them either but to think they don't have any contacts is laughable

Paddy my dear friend, it is you who looks foolish. No one is suggesting a journalist doesn’t have more contacts.

What I read is a journalist has a habit of plagiarising and in my personal experience the capacity to completely distort the truth. Their job is to sell drama - it leans into our mass apetite for it. I notice that you have a terrific appetite for drama so understand your capacity to get caught up in it.

The comment was Sam makes things up.
My point is these guys know more than us and thus there would be a kernel of truth.
Not sure how one can argue against that. Unless you are a fool

I grew up in an environment where everything reported about my family was utter bullshit.

A kernel of truth? Well, only according to the journalists sense of truth is my experience.

G Healy seems sensible
Agrees with the call made earlier this week that Carlton 2023 could be Melbourne 2020
And as such you back Voss in but this time next year you probably know if he is the right man or not

I am happy with this
As much as I have criticised Voss, the fact is nobody wants to sack another coach so quick and more to the point we wouldn't be the first team who have had a catastrophic in-season breakdown (in leadership, development, game plan, tactics, whatever) and the test of a coach ultimately is to diagnose the issues and fix them, and that is where we are right now.
Voss has to figure the shit out and fix it.

In saying all this, we don't know what is happening inside the club, and logic would suggest there is a small chance he has cocked everything up and if that is the case he would probably get the knife this year. But I would be surprised if that is the case. I hope not anyhow.

Interestingly there are quite a few experts who have come out this past few days saying they feel we should probably start to turn it around soon if not now, so lets' see if we can start to see some real improvements in the coming week or two.

I still worry 44 points is a very low base to pick oneself up from. I mean this has come off the back of 6 weeks of consistent nosediving scores. So if we are to win this weekend it'll probably have to come off the back of reducing Essendon**'s scoring considerably to around 60-70 and us finding a way to kick a score around 70-80.
Anything more would be a bonus and a surprise.
