Carlton Supporters Club

Having ASOS in the back line benefited the team in at least 2 ways :

1. giving the older blokes another experienced head to share the load
2. allowed Siimmo to play further up the ground to show us skills I had long forgotten, and be a genuine creative playmaker. Some of those shimmies, swerves etc. in the center square were Ablett-like. Beautiful to watch. 

I'm not an advocate of play the kids at all costs.The only criterion for team selection is 22 players who give us the best chance of winning the game.

If our senior / experienced players are as crap as people say, and our kids are as good as people say, then the kids will get their chances sooner rather than later, without some dopey ageist policy that gifts them games.

Plus Doc also seems to be playing further up field at times which means our ball use and run looks so much better and our entries in F50 are also of a higher standard making our forwards job a lot easier.

I have said many times that I don't rate Nick Graham but I must say, he came in yesterday and after some early nerves, did a solid job.

Cop that for media bias, the first question Cornes raises is when Cripps is returning to WA!

Not about football, not about training, development or anything else, but when are you leaving Carlton!

It's downright disrespectful!

LP it is afterall Kane Cornes who is the biggest knob going around. He copped alot over his story a the time about Cripps going home. The fwit thought Cripps would say something to vindicate his story. He really is an A class imbecile.

Yes it is. How did he respond?

Treated it with all respect it deserved. Said he signed a 3 year extention because he wanted to show commitment to the club. That is, he said "Cornes you're a knob".

And if there is a bigger knob then Cornes its the guy sitting beside him.

They asked the flog Lloyd what is a pass mark for the blues and he said based on yesterday's performance they will win more games this year then last year!

Only a month ago he wanted the AFL to investigate us cause he said we were a basket case.

Can't stand looking at him.

I guess you don't need enforcers if everyone looks after themselves and their team mates.

Casboult had the defenders intimidated but through his attack on the ball rather than thuggery. 

Interestingly, we seemed to have a plan to get stuck into Wright's opponent Mills.  He was tackled, bumped, pushed, elbowed and verbally harassed mercilessly.  In the last quarter he was gang tackled and you could see the tacklers getting into his ear.  When he was released Wright got stuck into him physically and verbally.  That we continued the tactic until the end of the game suggests a long term objective.
