Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Rd 5: Post Game Party!: Carlton vs. Fremantle
Some posts have been removed and as pointed out I suggest a quick read of the New Directions thread: http://www.carltonsc.com/index.php?topic=2843.0

Some of you are very astute but lets please keep the thread's on topic.

Congratulations to the moderating team, I look forward to being able to enjoy the site again.
Now... Let's go smash some bombers !!!

Didn't you say the other day that Murphy and co didn't have anyone to look up to and thus couldn't develop properly?

This is what its about. Rewarding players who put, regardless of who they are and how much actual talent they have.

If White, Tutt and Jones (all 'hacks') are tearing it up in the 2's, you have to reward them. How else to you show the kids what to do? Its pretty simple, perform and get a game. Continue to perform and continue to get a game.

Sometimes you play someone to get a point across that may not benefit you in the short term, but certainly will in the long term, long after they have been cast aside.

Do you really think that he's capable of comprehending that ?

To me that was someone seeing that KJ isn't a hard trainer and sent Craig over to him to test him.

I thought this might be a bit more cringe worthy than it was, although I wonder how much of this is put on for the camera, the question to Jammo and the expect it answer had extra shots of Jammo and DVR cut into the footage.

When Weitering gather the boys around and told them to be ready for anything, was fantastic leadership stuff, but again was it organised for the camera?

There's no doubt that there were marshmallows and fairy floss flying left right and center.
KJ was being gently blowtorched, and CC may not be the brightest spark, but it gave off a positive glow...
The one in all in bit was heart warming to anyone who was at the scum game at Princess Park a couple of weeks ago...
It buys time, it's better than we've delivered in the past, we are a work in progress.

I love the way so many on here are trying to make out that Bolton is now regretting taking the job and is shocked by what he saw. We had 26 players to chose from and played like it. Cripps and Kreuzer were possibly the only 2 players in our top 10 that were playing.

I'd wager plenty on the fact that he's champing at the bit to get his hands on the list and move it in the right direction.

Geez you'd hope so... ????
