Do we really need to turn this into another $%#@ing thread about Ratten?

Hendo's been great his season when fit but hasn't looked 100% for a while. Season's over anyway so hopefully this means he'll be fit and ready for a full pre season. I reckon he'll go up another level next year.

You say 'everyone can see we are playing unfit players', what are you basing this on?
Do other teams play players that aren't 100% fit?
Does Ratts make the final call or is it the medical staff?
We had half our team out last week injured, yet you say we continually play injured players.

I do not know one "Ratten hater". Who are they?

Ratten Hater = Carlton supporters who loved Ratts as a player but in their honest opinion do not believe he can take this list all the way especially since he has had 5 years to make significant strides structurally tactically win loss ratio overall improvement in the majority of the playing group winning finals consistently stringing wins together consistently reaching top four making prelims etc etc etc....

An alternative definition is this:

Pretend Carlton supporters who are pushing an obvious agenda and want Ratts gone cuz they despise seeing Carlton winning as this only reminds them of the good ol days of the 70's and 80's and that would mean them finally confronting how bloody old they are getting....and nobody wants that....surely?....

:grin:


Okay! :thumbsup:

No team flogs their stars and grinds them to dust.
Jamieson injured.
Henderson back for a week. Gone.
Kreuzer struggling all season.
Seen Russells bandages left elbow.. thats from last season..
Jamieson last year.
Curnow last year never been the same.
Waites in and outs injured.
Judd hasnt been right.
Laidler 3 peat performance to his knee.

These are pathetic and in many instances obvious.

@#$%&! me.

Comment on Henderson, even on us playing him injured if you need to.

But as in8 said, lets not turn this into another Ratten bashing thread.

Forgive them TBB, for know not what they do.

It's like a Junkie that needs a fix. They feel like they have ants crawling under their skin if they can have a good olde' Ratts bashing a couple of times a day. :wink:

Hey......I'm on your side. I know you are hurtin', I'm just asking the rest to go easy on you until you can find your way back to the thread that gives you the most comfort. Come along now, the 'Mick Malthouse' thread will make you 'Comfortably Numb'. :cry: :cry:

Looking forward to him getting back in time for a big pre-season.

Cazzesman.. im discussing injuries and players playing here....
Henderson has been wrapped up in cotton wool... im hoping a few others are too...

The new coach will need them next year without having their careers shortened...

You can continue on badge on the chest.. leather chaps on your legs.. a gun in each hand chewing on magic mushrooms.

I'm glad it's happening now.

Henderson is our best key forward and best key back.

As vital as anyone if we are to challenge for top 4 in 2013.

Henderson and Cloke is far more potent than Dawes and Cloke.
