give it up SB, it's not worth it

The interview to me highlights the strengths and ultimately the weakness of this club

Elliott comment is gold

Elliott in one sense was great for the club but like
fosters
ricefarms and other business ventures his ego got in the way and he [REDACTED] up the club
He promised he would leave the Presidency when Carlton won their next flag.
They did in 95 but like so many other promises he made he went back on them.

And we have been [REDACTED] every since
There aint piles of shit now as a legacy of the Elliott years hanging around bowels of Visy Park

But the stench is still there and we wont reach our full potential on and off the field until the smell goes.



Times change
You can stay too long in one place
People need to be moved on

I thought it was funny....

One thing still astounds me, about that dark period, was Elliot's claim that he knew nothing about the salary cap rorts. Many Carlton people to this day love Elliot and claim the rorts bought us premiership(s). Maybe, but they also left us in the wilderness for 10-15 years and counting.

Me too
I wonder who the 'precious' one is

I am sure I recall an interview with Murphy where he said that he wasn't so much disgusted that it was SOS the friend and legend who had been ko'd, but rather the stupidity of ko'ing SOS as this act might fire up the carlton team to play much better against Murphy's team.

Ironically Brown later got a job 'consulting' on the Carlton coaching position

Silvagni is qualified to be senior coach in a way that ratten never was

Agree Danny, that's all it was. But it was easy to assume other things in the interview, because SOS looked and answered so cautiously and nervously I thought.

Except he doesn't want it.

Good point

Hmmm...given there was about 2 minutes to go in that game an we were up by 70 points that doesn't make a lot of sense.

Exactly right. SOS has no senior coaching aspirations. Never has.

Or (huge longshot) he actually wants to do something other than be a senior coach. Not everyone in the world has the same ambitions and desires.

Maybe he's gutsy enough to follow his own path, and not be swayed by the expectations of others.

Now the media are onto his comments. Apparently he said that the truth has not come out. Unbelievable, cant our ex players keep their mouths shut.............

I thought all things considered he did his very best to keep tight-lipped. Of course that only fuels more speculation. I took the 'truth hasn't come out' comment to mean that (as usual) the media run with tripe and make things worse than they actually are. Didn't think he was trying to speak ill deliberately...

I like SOS and thought that it was good viewing.
