No point taking it to court. Dont want these allegations aired in a court of law. Move on. Forget the tiny turd.

Lets put this case in the hands of Mick Gato and The Carlton Crew to take care off... Libba will be 'sleeping with the fishes' pretty soon....

Do you have any Tony Liberatore dartboards left, Sedat??

How stupid is the guy. Not only won't he get an AFL job, after he gets the flick from Sunbury, no surburban club would go anywhere near him.

Gatto doesnt barrack for Carlton the ones that did sleep with the fishes already....

Who the flower is this Rita mole on SEN?

I don't know but she's a twit....


with an annoying voice to boot

No draft = No tanking.

It's pretty simple really.

Swann's a smooth operator. I think he'll know exactly how to get Libba to crap his pants and spill the beans just with the threat alone, without actually going to court.

Yes we tanked, thats right. give me a break.

you are sinking and trying to drag down whoever you can.

Mil Hanna let me answer your question - Has anyone on the coaching panel mentioned, even in a "jocular" way, actually made a statement that we were trying to lose? No.

well actually yes, listen to libba's interview.

Evidence of tanking. Let me see. How about not letting a player within 3 km of Travis Johnstone in the game of shame. Of course why would you want to man him up or shut him down as Travis has shown he loves it physical and playing someone on him to shut him down would always prove futile. In the end it was only 42 possesions, in a year of sh1teness for Travis as well.

Assistant coach jokingly say 'tanks very much', players are not prepared as well for matches towards the end of the season.

Is that enough for you.
I think your press conference is at noon.

I expect the press conference to be like 99% of press conferences, say nothing and bore everyone.

Have some balls and do an interview with Hutchy yourselves Carlton. Won't happen as they will be burnt to a crisp.

Carlton will be preparing the mother of all 'political' statements, trying not to flower this up.

Here is my serious guess at what will be said.

"We categorically deny Tony Libratore's allegations that Brett Ratten and the coaching staff would deliberately try to lose any football match carlton plays in".

"These are Tony's opinions and we refute any such suggestion Carlton would prepare to lose an AFL match"

Keep these on hand and compare if you will.

Be nice if they could answer the specific examples Libba gives.

I could write that for them as well - "We refute Tony's allegations a fellow coach said jokingly 'tanks very much' as he has a speech impediment. In regards to the last round, and not letting a player within 3 km of Travis Johnstone, we refute this also, as Travis has shown he loves it physical and playing someone on him to shut him down would always prove futile. In the end it was only 42 possesions"

""As for not putting in as much effort to prepare the players, we were very tired and sleepy at that time".

I reckon Derryn Hinch should host the press conference.

This is worse than the M&Ms debacle, whole club is losing all respectability.

I just thought I'd put this in the correct thread as Biffin seems to want to talk about Carlton all the time!

Maybe he's Melbourne's version of our great Melvey??




Me thinks that ol Biff should have a listen to the press conference just quietly. Travis Jonstone had 41 possessions and wasn't tagged in that game. Well, Heath Scotland had 39 possessions also playing loose man in defence in that very same game.

Why didn't the Dees man him up hey Biff?

Who the flower is this Rita mole on SEN?

This minor detail was but a footnote of course

Apparently we let Jonathon Brown kick 10 goals, 14 marks in R16 - Why didn't we put SOS on him

They did not need to man up on Scotland they won and they were well in front from the first minute of the game. Tell me why they should have manned up on Scotland when they were 6 goals up after the first quarter? I'm interested.
