With the old brigade all but gone, here's hoping some shitty culture and plenty of mental scarring has gone with them.

So Casboult and Betts were the issue.....yeah right.

While my comments in this thread may be seen as being anti-Teague, I am of the view that if the review indicated that he should stay, then that's fine as long as we obtain proper support.

However, what troubled me is that it does not explain the 5+ goal streaks, the inability to defend, the structures (or lack thereof) for defence and transition.

Sure we have a broken culture and we need to fix that. Unfortunately until "old" Carlton leaves, it won't happen. I suppose that means us members need to be more proactive and keep the Board accountable.

However, I still cannot understand how anyone can explain the issues we witness on the field. Sure we've had some injuries but so do Hawthorn. Even when we had a more healthy list than now, the same things happened.

Things aren't adding up. I don't doubt that there are political machinations going on.

The whole club is sick. And we'll need more than a Dr Edelsten to get us through it.

One question how does ‘old’ Carlton have a bad culture when old Carlton were successful.
Do people even realise what they are saying.......goodness.

If they are shitcanning old Carlton then nuh .

Politics pervades every club and organisation, it only becomes an issue when you have a culture of underperformance. The Collingwood game in Rd 2 started the rot because it was the most poorly coached game I can remember, and our season never recovered. Such a crucial week to make a statement and we failed. The rest is history.

Old Carlton relies on money and fails to take into account the new playing field brought about by equalisation strategies like the salary cap and the draft.

It appears the Board are not the only people who have failed to recognise or understand this.

Eddie the exception. I'm tipping Levi has his share of mental scarring.

my last one was rubbish

20 years of failure, 3 f@#ing rebuilds and I don’t know how many coaches, 1 finals appearance and you still don’t get it. What else can anyone possible add!

One more thing, just remember when the Pratt’s and Mathieson’s, etc. came back on to the board and maybe, just maybe you’ll work out how we actually paid out the debt as well.

I do give up sometimes with all you newbies....

Would of been epic to see the Synbad takedowns of Walsh.

Board, yes, Teague, I don't think they would.

Where is Walsh, Azzablue's revelations backup his Teague support more than anything.

Pretty much backs up what I have wanted the whole time, bolster the football department around Teague and go again next year.

As for the R2 game being bad, it was, but seems as a club we go into full on panic/ass covering/blame shifting mode when things get tough. All clubs have poor performances, its how you bounce back from there (we did win our next 2 actually), but as a club we tend to implode and panic, then the board get impatient, and the money men who have NFI want decisions made.

So basically regardless who is coach, I can't see things changing much, unless things on-field go right, forever. We may get a good year, but as soon as we have a poor run of games and/or season, the club will panic again and we will go through the whole thing again.

I’ve been pretty vocal on Murphy across forums and social media. No coincidence he was leader through the worst period of our history.

Our culture will improve significantly with him moved on IMO.

How did you not stick around for one more game to see out Betts and Levi when you’re fit?

You have answered your own question ...
