Ahh.. just like all those delusional anti-smorgon zealots that you argued long and hard with winfieldblue?

Surely what Pagan says to the media and what he says to the players behind closed doors are two completely different things.

Very true. However, what he says to the media is what he is saying to US. That's why so many people are frustrated with him. Carlton supporters expect honest answers, and not the same stuff every week.

As much as I dislike Sheedy a week or two ago he did exactly what you suggest. Basically said that their performances weren't good enough and (IIRC) there was a shared responsibility and all would be doing their best to see that they improved.

[quote]CARLTON onballer Adam Bentick says its time the Blues stopped using youth as an excuse for its six-game losing streak.

The 21-year-old, who had 15 possessions in the sideâ€™s 19-point loss to Adelaide, said youth was only a minor factor in comparison to inconsistency.

â€œYouth is an issue but weâ€™ve got to stage now where weâ€™ve played nine games and we canâ€™t keep using it as an excuse,â€

Good idea Elwood.

AB is hard and smart...the perfect combo for a BP.

He would amn up on the :Milne, Didak types well.

I know he is'nt quick, but he knows how to apply pressure and use the ball accordingly.

great for tight situations.

Would be exposed in the air big time. Too slow hand to foot as well.
