Watch the news last night I honestly got pissed off watching the players with those 300 t shirts
The coach is about to be sacked
Murphy has been gifted the last 17 games or whatever because the club puts individuals first plus the medical sub rule
The last 16 quarters against average opposition we have played 3 and a bit quarters of decent footy the rest of it has been deplorable and their efforts have been shit
That is partly coaching
Partly the playing group
The players obviously don’t really give a shit about the club clearly
So long as I get a game and my fat pay cheque
Is it the same at other clubs
At successful clubs no
Carlton arn’t as one. Just a bunch of selfish individuals who continue to deny what is really wrong
And the board is disconnected from the supporters corrupt make up the rules to keep their power and escape all blame for the obvious abyss
We so desperately need a change at the top
Very sad
Whilst Teague has his deficiencies I feel for him like I did for Bolton
I hear you keogh.
There is a level of selfishness still at the club, but its hard to pinpoint what it is.
Is it post Elliot fallout. The end of his era was really toxic.
The remnants of that era Camporeale, Bradley, Silvagni are all gone.
I didn't think of McKay and Ratten like that. Maybe I'm wrong, but they are gone too.
Who on our list was touched by the end of that era?
There's only Murphy.
Curnow and Levi came later, and Jones came from somewhere else.
But to celebrate a player's milestone, and a huge one at that is not offensive.
The flipside is offensive.
The problem we all have was gifting him an extra year when Simmo still had plenty more left than Murph and he was forced to retire.
The fact that Teague gifted games because he believed in them has had an effect imo.
No one can put a finger on the problem: the curse.
The Board is doing fine.
I hope there's a demarcation line between the Board and Footy Dept: that's all.
If not, there's the problem. Not the Board itself, but their meddling in the rooms. IMO
Hopefully Sayers can see what needs to be and the Review reflects the hearts and minds of those in the Footy dept.
The collage of thoughts and ideas is what is going to be difficult to sypher through to put the finger on one thing or three.
Lets hope the Board choose to fix has a domino effect on the other issues, because I'm sure many issues are related.
