Still no explanation on the massive turn around in Cripps and Walsh's form/fitness in particular, the captain couldnt run out of sight on a dark night during last quarters under Voss and looked like the next club he would be playing for would be the Arcare or Aveo old boys. 

Shhhh.     Add McKay

We can't talk about these things.    Fixture the only difference between Rounds 0-7 and the Fraser Era.

I am here to call out the BS that there has been "zero" change to the game style, pressure, player role changes and that we we have been working on it all pre-season and in season it was there to see in the 2nd half against the Lions.

Only a change in fixture.    Everything else the same.

Pretty sure McKay has been covered a few times, but i can't make you read it.

But tell me.....what exactly has Fraser done to Cripps....removed the Voss shaped kryptonite from around his neck?

He was back in the coaches votes for the first time since R1 richmond game. How did we conspire to give him votes that game (and every game since) given that not only do we need to rig our votes, we need to rig the oppositions votes as well.
This conspiracy goes deeper and deeper the more you look!
We've got the whole AFL to work together on undermining Vossy now.

The very first part of correcting previous errors is admitting them, as a club we've been making the same error for 20 years, burning all the good from the past and repeating the same mistakes, and when fans cling to this messiah Fraser notion that is denying the successes and errors of the past.

You have to learn from the past to move forward, all of it, good and bad. Surely as a club we aren't so stupid as not to have learned anything in two decades? Who the feck are we, CheatsFC!

Carlton fans should be happy about the reports coming from Fraser, Cripps, Walsh, etc., etc., about building on the successful execution of tactics started weeks and months ago, because it puts us further down the track than the stupidity of a full reset that would send us back to square one, yet again.

That's my FFS, fans gobbling the knobs the media types better remember being an AFL Media type is basically the career path for Past Player Clark Kents who are otherwise shizen at coaching! ;)

Cripps (and Walsh and McKay) have all been remarkably better since Voss left.    Fact we all agree on.

You can assume that it's changes that Voss had made that hadn't kicked in yet, the fixture and a recovery to the body greater than Lazarus.  

Or it's more help on this inside in Hewett, Ainsworth and Smith and less Contests.   Maybe a less taxing game plan and holding on the ball a little bit to slow down momentum?   Maybe neither of these things?

The real reasons?  You don't really know.   None of us do.

If you want to give Fraser 0% credit for any changes regardless of how small that's ok.

Re:  The conspiracy stuff with the Cripps?

Did you borrow LP's Tin foil hat?    Bizarre take

Corrected for accuracy.

They been better over a full 4-qtrs instead of just 3-qtrs, and that makes all the difference when you have a history of losing games by just a goal or two!
