Carlton Supporters Club

Heard Gibbs interviewed on SEN. He sounds like a nice enough guy but he does not have the first idea about what the problems could be let alone how to go about fixing them - he's totally exasperated. He does not sound like he has that hard centre of a true leader and like other of our players I heard recently can only offer that they need to work harder. I fear that we also need to work a lot smarter. No use working harder if we are not working on the right issues, which I suspect we are not.

Liked that reply.

You can listen to the whole interview on SEN's website. Robbo really pressed him on what's the difference in his form from last year to this year. Gibbsy had nothing poor bastard, other than to say he is working with Laidley on trying to fix it. Sounded really flat. He said they have a 24hr rule where they can be upset over a loss for that amount of time maximum, then they move on and focus on the next game. Robbo suggested they perhaps should have some time together and hit each other with some home truths over a beer. Gibbsy replied along the lines that you can talk all you like, its about doing and its time to do rather than talk. Liked that reply.

That sounds like they are not reviewing their performance enough if that's the case. When you're losing you surely need to focus on what you're doing wrong in order to rectify the problem? At least I would've thought.
