Sure the pre season was full of voice.
Leaders step up when it seems the road has been lost. Weve lost our way and we deperately need people to step up and lead us out of the maze.
Alot of it is harmony when the going gets tough.
So while were down youd think some senior players would run the extra mile????
Mickster a win would be great but the problem will continue. The problem is there because of the lack of leadership in main.
You cant expect a bunch of kids to just slash their way through the jungle without anyone showing them the way.
Synbad, did you go to training when Sticks was captain? Did he often stay behind and work on skills and help the young'uns? Would be interesting to know what he was like, because he was a great leader on game day.
Jarusa in those days only went to finals training but in those days we hardly had any real youth. I will say they werent really taken care of thats why we didnt have much youth. "We never rebuild at Carlton!!!"
That mantra went all the way through the club.. it was always about money and whatever.
Parking and Elliott knew nothing about kids and development. On ething about Sticks is he understood how to lead. If you ever met him youd know youd crawl over broken glass for Sticks. He would do the same back.
The great thing about Sticks is he will always look you in the eye no matter who you are and shake your hand with warmth. Like he means it.
If Sticks said something they did it. If Sticks says something to you you listen.. ask Nick Stevens .
He has charisma... he could lead.
He has passion ... he is still involved in the day to day running of this footy club.
Love to see how many of the current day crop will put their hand up in 10 years.
