As difficult as it is for supporters to swallow, you're bang on the money.
The Pratt's and Mathieson's are poison which permeate every aspect of the club.
Problem is they are so entrenched that members won't have the courage to vote them out, too afraid to remove the security blanket of their...
None would get a game in a decent side.
Petrevski-Seton is a pure mid, but quick he aint. Pretty skilful and generally good in traffic, but doesn't have good legspeed. Also question his courage.

Because he could send a glass eye to sleep. Shows zero passion, lacks nous to make changes where obviously needed. Rabbit in headlights when opposition have momentum. Won't make hard calls on certain players.
We are way too easy to play against.
Can see him being easily influenced by people...
Correct.
It almost like people haven't watched us play certain games this year and only looked at the scoreboard.

All absolutely abysmal performances. Now I don't expect we beat the top echelon, but...
OK so first it was the cap penalties argument which is utter nonsense.
Then we never embraced the draft, kept trying to buy our way out, and still are.
So it is the board's fault.
Now we have another lead singer but keeping the same band. Do people seriously not see a problem here? After...
No doubt it will end up a train wreck.
The deep pockets will sell the farm yet again for a Lyon or Clarkson, buy in some more flaky journeymen on huge money and we'll end up with exactly the same problem.
Like it or not, the club is owned by the Pratt's and Mathieson's. Members ain't worth...
Please. That was 20 years ago. Club has had more than enough time to get its shit together. The fact people are STILL pointing to that is endemic of where we are.
Make excuses, reject ownership, blame others... That ain't the recipe for success.
This board in its various forms, has presided...
As long as the deep pockets of the Pratt and Mathison names are associated with the board, it will always struggle to succeed. Carlton sold its soul the day Pratt bailed them out, and that 'bailout' attitude permeates the entire club to this day.
They own the club. It doesn't belong to the...
Joint is a circus. One of the worst run organisations in the country.
Going nowhere without a massive on & off-field culture shift. The long-held acceptance of conditional performances by so-called senior players has resigned the place to an almost terminal state.
The awful, stale coaching...
One of the worst games I've ever watched.
Carlton have the bottom 11 possession getters on the ground. Half the team has less than Melbourne's lowest player.

Bolton and John Barker and Shane Watson to go, effective immediately. Uninspiring group who seem to have paralysed the players. Give Dale Amos the interim job, appoint Docherty an official assistant coach, even though he basically is already.
End of season I'd also thank Marc Murphy for his...
Gone.
The call should have come 12 months ago.
Four of the last five games have been utterly abysmal. Last week's game against the saints was as bad a game as I've seen, and if the saints were any good they'd have won by 15 goals.
The players are broken.

Yes, and the responsibility is equally shared by the player. They have to want to be their best. I just don't see enough of them that want it.
I look at a guy like Petrevski-Seton and see a gifted footballer who has developed habits that will cost him a great career. Does not work hard and is...
Marchbank - rabbit on headlights
Plowman - calamitous errors every week
Petrevski-Seton - soft, slow
Silvagni - slow and not skilful, but at least plays with some ticker
Casboult - limited
Fisher - doesn't work hard enough
Gibbons - limited
Kreuzer - most overrated ruck in the comp
Newman -...
Carlton players either not up to it, or simply don't want to be up to it;

Just so many players who do the basics poorly too often.
Newman mouthing off like a tough guy, how about not turning over the footy in critical areas like a spud.

If Bolton is shown the door, Marc Murphy will have played under four sacked coaches. Surely a record.
I fail to see how sacking Bolton will achieve anything though. I mean, I doubt there'd be a queue of applicants. Who would apply? The joint is terminal.
Bolton got the job last time because...
