Quote:
"We need to look after blokes like Marc Murphy and Bryce Gibbs and if our blokes flew the flag on the weekend, that's bloody good, that's how it should be done," Kernahan said last night.

...

Criticised last week for not protecting or helping Murphy throughout the season, the Blues responded in a manner that pleased Kernahan, the Blues' chairman of selectors.

...

Internally, the Blues coaching staff is furious with the off-the-ball treatment dished out to its young players, Murphy in particular.

They accept the extra attention Murphy will receive in-play, but are frustrated at the second/third umpire's inability to pay free kicks behind the play.

apparantly the AFL might 'investigate' stick's comments - in particular when he said it was 'bloody good',

just pathetic really

I'd just like to talk up Robbo if i could...............

He cops a lot of flack on this site but yesterday, on SEN, he was VERY passionate about the Blues flying the Flag for Murphy.

One perticular part, he made mention of his worry that the Blues might have gone soft (i was worrying about the same thing) and they did what they needed to do to show the other 15 teams that we wont be pushed around nor will will stand by and watch our young kid murphy be bashed around like that!

BLOODY OATH!

I for one LOVE what Fev did! I'm sick and tired of us being pushed around. PUSH BACK BOYS! :x

Didn't Fev run into Didak for the hit on Scotland last year?

They can stick their please explain up their ar_es.

They can fine him if they want (we're billionaires now :lol: ), but he should stand his ground and say "We are Carlton, F_CK YOU!!"

Stupid choice of words. Embarrassing really.

The idea is right, but surely it could have been more diplomatically worded.

He just sounds like a thug for saying the fight was good; he needed to say that "the fight was an act of self-defence against the unwarranted treatment that our young ball-focused midfielders seem to be getting".

Mmm....what the PATHETIC media hasn't been saying in the same breath as "Fev started it by running through the Collingwood huddle.."
Bullshit, they were still walking off and Didak had a go at Carrazzo...and pretty much missed only clipping Carrots' shoulder slightly....Fev saw it and lined him up as a result for a "real" bump...

All the media are shoeing is the "poor old Dids bending over to tie up his shoe, (obviously needed Fraser's help which is why Rocca collected Fraz)...and Fev running through

Any of our YouTube gurus got the vision??


And I don't give a SH!t how it looks for Sticks to say it...I'm glad he has said what EVERYONE is thinking......we are not going to be soft, we are not going to let pur kids get knocked around and we are not going to take a backward step (and the players have BEEN TOLD)....


How's it different to Shaw's comments about Hird last year?

Given that the AFL's head of umpiring clearly stated for all and sundry that they only look after certain players [and Murphy] was not included in that list, how the flower can the AFL ask for a please explain?

Did they send one to the Giesch?

I

think

flowering

not!

I admire Sticks greatly for speaking his mind. The problem we had in the Collins/Smorgon years is that there was a dinstinct lack of passion from the people in charge at the club. It was so dull, so passive. Then Sticks comes along with "We are Carlton, and @#$%&! the rest". I stood and applauded.

Good on ya Sticks, you're a true Blue!

Thanks for the link anyway...you can see that Carrots was watching his back the whole time....I think that's waht's instigated it even though Didak's elbow did nothing (but Fev didn't know that at the time...just saw Didak elbow Carrots :wink:

Why say that? bloody good is much more accurate and takes much less time.



If it had been Lance, he'd have been criticized by most here for starting a blue so close to Gibbs and getting him involved in it....poor leadership

Cos it's full of hot air.

Apart from Fev, none of the big guys in our team want to throw their weight around. Lance does it via SMS.

Looking at the video clip, definitely something said to Carrots, but the elbow hardly made contact. Didak's a tosser though, and good to see Fev firing up. We owed 'em one for last year's incident....shame we didn't get the 4 points :(

A bit of passion for the rest of the year should see us win games, although it'd be lovely to get the PP and 1st pick..........and a new coach. Geez we'd be good in 2-3 years !!!

Didak was givin some lip service to you carazz, ruffed up murphy good on fev for puttin him down and making him think a lil. Did didak attack murphy again for the rest of the game NO so point was made.

But I do love the Eddie whine we didnt start it so we should not be fined (what a gal typical catholic schoolboy from fairy)
