For those of you bagging Shannon Grant, you really shouldn't post innuendo without any foundation. Shannon is a ripper guy and he would be the most popular guy at any footy club. He is prone to have a drink, but a tosser he is not.

He might fart butterlies but on field he comes across as an over-celebrating tool.

interesting that you say this, I know people that know him (and family) and while not describing him as a tosser they haven't spoken as nicely as you have, from memory some interesting relationships exist between a family member and a person involved on the coaching side of things.

Nothing sinister by the way.

He needs to grow up though, acts like a flower on the odd occassion.

So. Is Shannon Grant a tosser or not?

I'll tell you my thoughts - WHO CARES :shock:

Does he wear a Carlton jersey? No.

So do I give a toss what type of person he is. Nope. Couldn't give a rats about most players that don't wear Navy Blue.

Anyway, back to the topic. Carlton vs North.

Will be a very tough game, but as stated earlier, if we can match their intensity "throughout" then we stand a very good chance. Must keep the intensity up ALL the way as Nth will not drop off.

Grant knows my cousin and thinks my cousin is an over-celebrating tosspot.

I saw Shannon Grant once at the airport ( when he was on his way up to the Gold Coast to play Carlton at Carrara, pre season last year) and i said to him ' Go easy on us mate ' and he laughed in a friendly way and said ' Nah mate the Blues are playing good footy, it will be a tough game '
Nice enough bloke, he didnt have to take the time to talk to us, but he did

I like the Kangas, one thing about them is they give their supporters great value... they put in

I think he is in doubt for this week's game kk.

The Ins for this week will be very interesting, to say the least.

In: Betts and anyone fast for the defence against their small forwards.

Out: Saddington and Russell.

Who do you put on Brent Harvey?

That is the most important topic. Do you rotate players off him?
Grigg and Walker ?

i say we just get Stephen "the hitman" Browne to sort out Harvey. other than that you have to look at someone who is prepared to sacrifice their game and can stick to the task.

what about Jordy?
