Obviously reading between the lines you have experienced autism in your life one way or another
They are traits of autism not the ones that are politically correct
You know the ones
Poor social and communication skills
Rigid not willing to try different things
Etc
It annoys me a bit when someone excuses me of not knowing shit being ignorant or a shit teacher based on me having a view about politically correct speak
So my real name is Victor Rowe
I taught for 28 years 22 in Corio one of the lowest socio-economic areas in Australia
I taught heaps of kids with all sorts of problems including autism
And did ok according to people who should know my work colleagues
In fact I enjoyed teaching kids on the spectrum and a bit crazy because they would say some pretty funny shit without meaning to be funny
It helped our staff to have a laugh and get through the day something you can’t do now because it’s disrespectful to the condition.
Bullshit. Still did my best to help these kids. That was my job and I did my best
A much preferred teaching kids like that than some private school my shit doesn’t stink kid “ with no problems “.
Go on troll me
You can find out with the net these days
Do your own research
I’m saying it’s all too politically correct
That sort of non direct wishy, washy speak will be on full display when this review is let loose
I guarantee too of that

Thanks - I appreciate that you put it out there Keogh. Helps with context given most of us don't know each others' credentials or contacts to know/talk about anything, esp footy.
I don't always agree with you but do appreciate your thoughts and insights. And I am fully aware that many of you have much much better insights than me!
I do wish we could steer clear of the personal attacks (on all sides, in several threads).

I'm pretty sure most of us want success at Carlton but have a range of different views about the causes of our current (and historical) problems, and the things we could/should do to fix them!
Hell, there were more arguments than agreement even when we were footy's powerhouse club! (I still think we would have won four in a row if not for the shenanigans at the end of 1979... but then again, as if to prove my point, it is entirely possible that without those shenanigans, we would not have won in 81 and 82!).
It's fairly clear that different people can look at the same data and draw different conclusions. And then throw in personal/business/political agendas and alliances and its pretty easy to see how there are lots of disagreements about our club.
But, it would be so much better if we could keep the personal stuff out of it.
Go BLUES!!

Teaching students the wrong word in the wrong context is not individuality, it is incompetence.

And yes I was in classrooms everyday plus dealing with the students that “individual” teachers couldn’t handle

No problems there GWS
Kids can do what they like these days

BREAKING, via Jon Anderson: "As Carlton continues a review into its football department, some findings can be revealed & don’t make for pretty reading for those in charge.
For those desperate to know how the Carlton review will go, buckle your seat belts & get ready for change.
Anderson: "Some of the findings are said to include a lack of player development, player “cliques” (with large, unjustified salaries an issue), culture deficiencies, poor behaviours, consistently long injury list & meddling from outside departments into football matters."
Anderson: "The 3-person panel will shortly table its report. Could it also include regrets from some parents that their sons were actually drafted by the club?
And do players have total faith in selection integrity? A term that first introduced during the Brendon Bolton years."
Anderson: "The other issue for Carlton over the next 2 years is an extremely tight salary cap that is going to have to find room for emerging superstar’s Sam Walsh new deal as he comes out of contract at the end of 2022. It might even mean Walsh is paid under market value."

”Some of the findings are said to include a lack of player development, player “cliques” (with large, unjustified salaries an issue), culture deficiencies, poor behaviours, consistently long injury list & meddling from outside departments into football matters."

None of these things would be a surprise to anyone, probably because he’s just stating the bleeding @#$%&! obvious.

Ok
The fish rots from the head

So if the review is scathing which it should be what does that mean for the board
Two are going at the end of the year
What about the rest of them
How can they justify sitting in their chairs for x number of years whilst all this shit has gone on below them
It’s basically a product of an old outdated culture and of a club that was the powerhouse of the comp
The all conquering all mighty one who collectively thought it would never end
It’s only taken 20 years to work out what’s wrong
Actually try 30.
That’s when the cap and draft came in roughly
It’s pretty simple
Most if not all on that board are relics and must go for the club to successful embrace the modern day

And sorry to bring up teaching again but I quit when I was 50 because the system changed
Whether I agreed with it or not I needed to change with it. I recognised this but did want to so I got out of it
Some of these people on the board clearly can’t see their outdated
They don’t belong there anymore
Go off let the the club grow
Piss off and do something else
