Everyone is just stating generalities. Where are examples of what they have done compared to us that make a point of difference other than success of the team?
"They" also talk about the tigers being the best in the digital space. What specifically does that mean? The Journey documentary the...
What I think a lot of people are not realising or at least I haven't seen it mentioned in this thread so far, having a good preseason correlates closely to having a good season. Last year Carlton had a huge number of players, 20+ I think, that had limited preseasons due to post season surgery...
You do realise that his right knee is the one he had the reco and his numb foot on Sat night was the left.
Or maybe you are the infamous Dr. Nick who treated Mr. McGregor the man with a leg for an arm and an arm for a leg.
In the end it doesn't really matter who we end up playing because if you want to win the flag you eventually come up against good opposition, and I want to win number 17!!! So BRING IT ON!!!
I'm confused are you talking about the team that 2 years after losing a grand final tanked in 2005 losing the last 8 games in a row to turn it around only the next year and get 14 wins in the H&A, not the team that was actually no good and couldn't win games on merit?
Or is it the team that...
If you think Murdoch had no knowledge of what was happening you must be living in fairyland. And to think that high ranking executives in his empire didn't know something has already been proved wrong. This scandal is not just confined to a few people in Britain. Investigations have begun in the...
Your sarcasm is noted however explain to me the difference between Murdoch and Pratt in relation to Patrick Smith.
Both were in charge of companies that profited from illegal activity that was harmful to the general public.
Both were in charge of other companies that operate independently...
Well no one wants you to kill yourself so here is the answer.
NLoV = News Limited or Visy
PS tried to round up Carlton in the problems with Visy calling all people who were supporting his influence on the club as sycophants. Yet nothing about Murdoch and News Limited.
Here is a hypothetical situation....
There is a boss of a company called "NLoV". He has owned this company for many years and it has grown to be the biggest of it's kind. This boss then starts owning/running other companies, which are independent of each other. The boss then gets caught doing...
2 quick questions.
1) How do you use drugs (legal or not) without having possession of drugs?
2) How is reference to drugs relevant to illegal betting on sport?
Some people need to learn the rules before you incorrectly criticise the umpires. If you are tackled before you have had prior opportunity to correctly dispose of the ball then you need to at the very least attempt to get rid of the ball. If in attempting to correctly dispose of the ball, the...
This is just plain wrong. This incident happened right it front of me (insert clip of Adelaide supporter crying "Right in front of me"). Murphy did not run into McVeigh while he was standing still. As the umpire was about to restart the game they were both standing next to each other and I think...
You may have been watching footy longer than me but clearly your understanding is limited.
There are players who are very good at getting the ball out of the packs and distributing it, in other words win the hard ball. Players that come to mind are Brett Ratten, Brett Kirk and Luke Ball to...
Brendan Fevola
Imagine if he had half a brain (about a half of a brain more than he currently has). He had serious talent, but if he didn't waste his time on the field being a petulant fool and off field being just a fool, he would have been a one club player and probably enjoyed more success...
I believe the AFL MCC and police have also made a major failure in this issue. They should all come out and say that despite whether Eddie's actions were warranted or not, his reaction was reckless and should be condoned. If someone feels that there is unsocial behaviour taking place in the...
Re: Round 12 - Carlton v Brisbane @ Etihad Stadium Sunday June 12 at 1.10PM
Is it just me or is O'hAilpin playing more and more like Earl Spalding. Love the way he smashes the packs and lets the little guys do their thing.
I agree 100% with the OP and to all those saying oh well they were tough conditions, you are missing the point. This roast is not on his performances in regards to his ability to mark and kick and how he toiled in such trying conditions, but a comment as to his attitude and mainly lack of...
Borderline racist? That's like saying something is more perfect. It's a stupid comment. It is either racist or not, there is no middle ground.
Also regardless of what the St. Kilda supporter said Eddie McGuire was just as culpable to anti-social behaviour. Rather than alert the authorities he...
Melbourne need to learn to pick their battles. I doubt there is a player who would love nothing more that to be targeted for a physical challenge than Robbo. If it was someone like Thornton who called them soft then fair enough, but singling out Robbo for the rough stuff is just plain dumb, like...
What you're missing from these stats is that it's also about creating a contest. With the quality smalls that we have it is important that we give them an opportunity and the only way is to kick to a contest. Long and high may be difficult for us to mark but it is also difficult for the...
People who say members or long term supporters can't say 'we' need to either ready Nick Hornby's Fever Pitch or watch the film with Colin Firth. It's about a life long Arsenal supporter leading up to the climax of the 1988/89 season when Arsenal ended their (our) trophy drought. Towards the end...
It's not whether you go early or not, it's whether you make a realistic attempt to mark the ball.
Walker made a realistic attempt but the ball was intercepted just in front of him. In other words had it not been for that Geelong player Walker would have marked it.
Johnson was nowhere near...
