Tuesday last week I took my grandma to dinner, they sat us at table 43.
This week Kouta broke down and retired.

Should Houlihan watch his back?

I'm just asking...

Was the seating at table 33...extra soft?

Must mean Ryan will be asked to go in and get a hard ball this week, thus forcing his retirement.

Jokes aside though, I reckon we're a bit harsh on Hoops generally.

It seemed promising, but never quite lived up to expectations, wasn't as hard as some might like and never seemed likely to turn the meal around, but not bad enough to complain to the waitress about.

I'd give it a 6.

In defence, he gets what he deserves. In the forward half, he does the exact opposite. We give him too much .. as they said on the call last week, "He's a superb kick" .. he can be relied upon up forward IMHO

"Please explain??" Image Scottie is a gem! Don't his numbers speak for themselves? Why would you want to sit at table 29!?! I would have thought you'd want Table 9 or Table 11!

Naah, that's where The Filth eat ... and The French Restaurant (Henri Jacques) is for other teams .. maybe they're withholding the name of the restaurant for fear of unauthorised Product Placement

He is a bad influence. The Rob Lowe of Carlton. He racks up cheap possies - I was keeping an eye on him on Saturday and he even though he got 33 touches he didn't influence the game. He also handed out more than the odd spray to teammates. Get rid of him.

Were you at the game? I missed the sprays .. or I wasn't watching the coverage that closely .. but if that's the case I agree: there's only room for one hothead on the team (apparently if you can kick goals you can get away with anything)

Yes I was p12. Most of the sprays were off ball or play (and camera) had moved on. In one passage. He was behind the ball carrier (may have been Carrazzo) at 45 deg and was screaming for the ball. Carrats kicked it forward to a better option, and our friend Scotto cracked the shits. There were 4 examples I saw during the game.

"Not Image"Happy

Those of us at home who don't see the game that often / too closely wondered why he was dragged and now disappointedly know why! Quite disappointing, actually, given his apparent success on the stats sheet ...

... I agree with the cheap possies as well .. saw many with my relatively untrained eye ... they seemed at times to be simply hand-balling for the mere sake of it ...

I think hes ok, he kicks a goal or 2 every now and again...ur right about the cheap possies though and he does seem to be an angry person but all clubs need a few angry people

Makes things interesting :P
