You see Gibbs jogging beneath the flight of the ball as it sails from one contest to another time and time again. Soft outside player!

As already mentioned 550k is too much. Get in there haircut, or get out!

Weve been overpaying all our name players.. (except Eddie) we offered him bugger all so he would leave
But.. he (Gibbs)does have a broken hand and i reckon hes a better player than Murph

He's had 6 years to show he's better than Murph. He hasn't
How long are you prepared to wait?

he has already shown he is better
does a zillion roles
can mark over his head and play a variety of positions
murph? hmmm loves to play in the shadow of others and run around untagged .
he doesnt know how to go in hard.. thats why he gets injured.. he is going because he has to... thats why he has no clue how to go for a fifty fifty.. he has never does it ..
so when he does it.. hes thinking "i have to do this because everybody is watching and im expected to.. uh oh... here goes"
he doesnt go in low or hard enough...
there are other small guys in the league.. they dont seem to have things broken

murph has always done it because he has been allowed to run around collecting kicks...

he never backs back into packs.. like his mentor juddy...
hates going defensive

reminds me of the next ian stewart .. nick dal santo
give him room he will slay u...

plus i hate his cheating and diving....

Our list os overrated and overpaid.

Starts at the top..sets the pace.. evrrybody follows
Then he gets his third party payments.. and then all of a sudden there are over a dozen others are Visy ambassadors

Then we have the business with him losing money with some night club attached to that board member.. next thing we know Simmo Murph and Gibbsy are pissed off theyre losing money with some get rich quick scheme.
Not much footy in all that... alot of other 3rd party deals.. and a salary cap thats choca block.

Like i said.. when youre paying a guy 1.5 million the otehrs will follow in that slipstream right behind him

..problem is, it's an older issue than juddles.. ..we have a history of having a top tier of players on crazy money.. ..we've yet to figure out the draft, and the tpp structure.. ..we're grouse..

When you pay $700k to Thomas then of course Murph, Gibbs and several others will expect the same. It makes free agency very dangerous, to easy to pay over the odds and then too hard to retain comparable players on our list. p.s . Astonished you rate Gibbs so highly Synbad. Murph goes in way harder and has performed better over the journey. Gibbs has sublime skills, and it is pretty easy to play loose across half back. Murph has been tagged and hammered since day one. Gibbs is good but not as good as he should be.

Murph's had more impact over more games.
They play different roless
Murph has played his role better than Gibbs has played his.
Anyway, that's my opinion

..DT is getting overs cos that is the cost of buying in talent, possibly similar with our other new trade ins, a bit always gets chucked on top,, that is why it is dangerous to build thru trades.. ..yes I don't think DT is worth 700 though am not sure he is getting that much though, isn't it closer to middle 600s..?.. ..but what someone is worth, and how much extra to buy them in is the extra.. ..but some also get airs.. ..others sign up with little fanfare.. ..looking at you simmo, krooz.. ..never any doubt, and will bleed for colours.. ..yanno what they say about the squeaky wheel..

hahaha.. if only gibbs was given roles like running around unaccountable and no defensive pressure.. never to back into a pack or go in the path of a lead.. no care in the world.. till he got foind ou v geelong last year by a lamer...

and murph was given tagging roles week in week out...

You can't be serious. Gibbs has played mainly as a loose man in defence or a wide receiver half back, footy doesn't get easier, and when was the last time he backed into a pack. Murphy has been tagged since Copeland wrecked his shoulder in about his 8th game.

actually... i wanna know why our board dont do something creatibe for the club.. instead theyre taking the players under their wing and teaching them how to lose money ... in get rich quick schemes.
thats not the role of the board...
and thats not why the players are at the club

somewhere this club has lost its way... and you can see why...

Bryce is better off leaving...
its a career decision.

to stay is to sink....

eddie will be a better player...
Gibbs should watch Eddie and follow

footy wise there is nothing for the players at Carlton.

Even their 3rd party deals stink .. so whats the point???... Thatd the only thing they were interested in ...

just go Gibbsy... go be the footballer you always should have been.

This is a black hole !!!

Yup.
Because gibbs will split a pack, back into a pack, run through a pack, get on his hands and knees and win a hard ball, chop off a leading forward, all while copping the number 1 tag every week.
Because that's what Murph can and will do.
Did you not see gibbs pack spoiling effort on thursday night? Insipid

Gibbs has the heart of half a pea. Give him an unaccountable midfield role and he will rack up 20 touches (all uncontested) and have no impact on a game. He got tagged on thursday and had zero impact. Murph gets tagged every week and seems to have an impact, no?

Sad but true this club needs a total remodel from the top down.

I was actually going to say from the ground up but actually it really is the top down.

:wink:

Lets hope Gibbsy leaves the black pit.. and goes to SA...

Then we can see whos better.

People have short memories...

Hes actually been our most consistent performer with Simmo and Scotto.

Murph loves to dive ..as soon as he feels contact... and he doesnt know how to protect himself... he also loves to play in the slipstream of others.

Murph is totally one dimensional... he is a 2nd or 3rd mid.. and hes small... he doesnt kick goals any more because his opponent takes him out of position...

He like juddy play too shallow.
neither gets deep forward or back
preferring to roam the middle.

unless there is a stoppage

gibbs gets deeper defensively and offensively....
