Rubbish. Bentick is currently by far our best ball extractor/tackler in the in and under style of play. Was doing very well in 2006 until he copped the shoulder injury .... have a look at his tackles, 1%ers, 1st possessions and clearances ... he does all the tough stuff very well.
They...
Hampson looked good at training Friday ... will give Dempsey a workout in their duels, which makes a change. Grigg looked fine too ....
if you believe they were not stoked, you are wrong.
Joe Anderson looks a real goer ...
SO what is Thomas going to do when he actually gets asked to play on an opponent? Same thing as Jason Cloke?
So Cook has impressed for Williamstown so much that he may get a senior game? Wow.
Bower impressed for Northern Bullants enough to warrant selection by around rnd 10, then about 6...
Due to their dispute with Deej, melbournehosting.com, who were the ISP we used for theblueview.org before we moved to bigfooty servers, have redirected the domain name, rather than sorting the dispute.
ODN and myself were unaware of the dispute until the redirect occurred Monday, hence were...
I hope you are not considering becoming a biomechanist ...
Cos your photographic evidence (particularly the 2nd large photo) clearly shows Medhurst had both feet off the ground during the impact, and also shows Medhurst connecting with Houlihan's head.
In my book it was worth a week for...
Sorry for the misunderstanding. Dan's post indicated he could see no reason why Carlton could not make money from playing home games at OO. It was that aspect with which I took issue. I guess it is a sensitive issue with us at the moment, as there is a ot of misinformation being propagated re...
Not trying to put words into my mouth? You would not have mentioned it if it was not what you think you are doing. ;)
Try reading your posts. They are littered with you ascribing motives and opinions when such motives or opinions have never been expressed.
Now where, anywhere in my...
Not sure what you guys ar doing about Pahoff Ghost, but we (on our Fan Forums TBV and CSC) took one look at Gratton and decided we had to come out proactively and publicly support the Board and show perhaps indecisive or out of touch members that what he was doing is total rubbish as far as a...
Jeff, just because you have a few ex coterie cronies as your mates doesn't give you a handle on what's going on at our CLub, specially from overseas.
What I am criticising is you acting as if you know the ins and outs of our CLub, whch you clearly do not based upon your comments here, and...
Dan's post ignores a range of issues, not the least being that Geelong and Carlton are in different environments, regional vs urban. Optus sponsorship was groud sponsor, not game sponsor, except for the 2 home games we had this season at TD. They have indicated they will remain as ground...
No, the contracts relating to OO will be terminated. Noone is going to play there. It is believed the $2.6M for CFC to play the 6 games at TD is coming from the stadium owners (effectively ch 7) via the AFL.
The biggest issue for CFC in termination of game sat OO is the catering contract...
Rather. When we suggested that he pay for an EGM if he wants to call one and his motion is defeated, his reply was "we are under no legal obligation to do so".
So we pointed out that he was under no legal obligation to call one.
What you clearly do not know mate, is that when Collo came back, so did a lot of coterie people who had left because of Elliot.
Your statements re our Club's finances show you have no idea.
We had 6 sponsorship agreements run out at the end of 2003. We run a ground by ourselves...
Collo was given more than an indication ... he was given the terms, penalties and fines, with endorsement by the appropriate people (backroom of course for that is the way the AFL operates). But they did not hold firm as they should against most of the other CLubs who hated Elliot and saw this...
The was an agreement between Collo and Demetriou. This was forced to be broken at the Club President's ,eeting in the week leading up to the draft, when they other 15 Presidents stayed on after Collo left the meeting with Evans and Jackson. This is confirmed by various sources around the CLub...
I would suggest this statament says more about your friends than it does about Collo, given the knowledge of the state of the Club when he took over, and Elliot's refusal to acknowledge there was a problem, and his supporters backing him despite the overwhelming evidence of how bad he had been...
I woukd not describe that as proactive on the AFL's behalf. Collo went to them. So why use the language you used? and it ahs nothign to do with any fixation re St Kilda, I actually love the way they are travelling (or were earlier in the season, and again of late).
I have told you what he...
Carlton Board wanted to play home games at the G, after an attractive offer from the G. However, the AFL refused to schedule games there, and want the CLub to play home games at TD, where Ron Evans Spotless has no contract. Hence the offer of the $2.6M, since the AFL wins financially despite...
The AFL was not proactively involved in his election to President .... they had no say in it ... the voting members elected him, the AFL did not appoint him.
He was persuaded to stand for President by Carlton One. Please get your facts correct. As your admission implies, you actually had...
As the TBV admin who banned him, let the record state that he was banned for yet again abusing other members, and posting trolls which were generally abusive and mostly about himself. He was warned via PM before being banned, and also emailed after being banned. Instead of responding to the...
I would not argue that one is better than the other. They are different players, at different stages of their careers, different physical build.
One could argue Neitz is more mature and more of a leader, but then look at his performance against Collingwood where he lost the plot for 2...
Would remind you that when Richmond targeted Campo for 2 seasons, including being sniped head high 4 times in the semi-final in 2001, Carlton did NOT run to Ch 9 and havea good old sook about it, despite the clearly premeditated nature in 5 games over 2 seasons. Furthermore, when Bowden was...
I didn't realise Eddie named the pool ...
When asked by Brereton on SEN whether during the initial negotiations he had discussed naming the oval with the Trust, Eddie gave a speech on what they would like to do instead of answering the question. All along he has avoided the issue of whether...
Ah, Ignoramus has ventured out of his opium den to blow his own nose has he?
Perhaps if you can lift your brain out of its ignorant stupour for a few minutes, you may be able to discern that Caroline Wilson stated in her article that it is an ex Carlton player, not a current Carlton player...
Do any of you morons (and I include you in this too leonmagic) engage brain before putting fingers into gear? Or do you just think jumping to ill-founded conclusions and slandering someone is ethical?
Cameron Croad is still on the playing list, and is NOT yet an ex player, something Caroline...
