Agree entirely GWS sick of spin and misinformation - tell us the truth - say that the list isn't as good as we thought -say that we need to rebuild and renovate - say we understand there is no quick fixes and we are going into the draft heavily to rectify the situation - say the last 4 weeks have been terrible and players are on notice for their spot at the end of the season - say young players will be preferred to old at the selection table - say we are playing our whole list this year to determine who is part of our future - say that there needs to be a completer review of everyone and every function at the football club -say that in the next 19 weeks supporters will get a better effort than the rubbish dished up in the last 4 weeks - stop making excuses ie 20 operations over pre-season who cares



Don't do vacuous things on twitter or in the media that simply mean and do NOTHING

Lastly that mentally weak team that continues to let us down play on sunday like they really mean it - take the opportunities when they are there and play accountable and tough uncompromising football

Social media is not too far removed from posting on Internet forums. Maybe you should start hating them too.

I have no problem with this. At least the club are acknowledging that we are hurting and are showing a "united" front amidst all the rumors and innuendo. I see this as Carlton's version of the cheats #standbyhird. It's simple I know but at least they are trying.


And you'd want to aspire to their modus operandi because...?

Say what you want about there cheating ways, but at least when they were attacked from pillar to post their players and supporters have stood united. Their playing group responds by winning games of footy.

Having the message tainted by a sycophantic and conflicted media (ie. Having the largest newspaper in the country as a major sponsor) on speed-dial certainly helps in shaping public opinion.

I like it. And I'm disgusted that Essendon** blatantly cheat and they're supporters unite. We lose a few games and fall to pieces.


Its amusing how we lose a few games and attempt some social media solidarity and get ridiculed, yet they cheat and do the same to support their blatant liar of a coach and its applauded...

I'll #UNITE when our list of players deem fit to win 5 games in row which includes genuine wins against top 4 teams.

When our boys #BELIEVE they want to make the necessary sacrifices and work hard enough to achieve this #MINOR MILESTONE then I will get around to #UNITING to see what else they can do.

:wink:

They would have been better served to shut up shop until after the match against the Bulldogs, and if they win, then tweet something like #kickstart2014, or something like that to indicate they drew a line under the Demons match and started fresh, even if it was 4 matches behind the 8 ball.

By the way, I'm well aware of the irony of using social media to criticize it....

Beating the Blues

Quote:
A "united" Carlton has turned to comeback star Chris Judd for inspiration, and not a moment too soon, as the winless Blues put their fading credibility on the line against the Western Bulldogs on Sunday.

Don't understand why we continually add pressure on ourselves

Should forget the "You Know We're Coming," "Can you Smell What we're Cooking," etc, and get out there like every other club and just play footy.

That's all the top teams do, the Hawks, the Cats, the Swans pre-Buddy, even the Pies - no fanfare, they just go out there and play footy.

Not sure if I have a mild form of dyslexia but whenever I see the word UNITED I almost always read it as UNTIED at first glance.

Which is probably a better description of the club ATM.
