[Bostonian]

Not longer than me

Much respect Boomer.

 

[TJohn]

HaHa, you’s crack me up

 

[RedFury]

Is it weird to say I'd be more confident if we're a goal down at 3/4 time than if we're 3-5 goals up?

Pies come out with a different mentality if they're behind and you just know when they start coming we'll go to water.

 

[BlueGum]

I'm a passionate fan.

OK, you're an old passionate fan. You're not unique.

 

[Blue1980]

Hoping Cotts can be used in this role, has the tank can take a grab and has pace. Never know Cunners may appear before the end of the season too.

Maybe Harry is gassed by the time he gets a shot, Personally I'd play him out of the square, that's where he believes he does his best work and is probably the most confident there.

I’m not sure cuners exists, or was ever real to begin with

 

[Blue1980]

Just listened to (most of) the skipper fronting the media.
Same stuff as Vossy, similar guff to Lloyd, same story as Cerra.
I get the impression that its just words with little behind it.
While the fans talk up rivalries etc. Its just another day coming into work, don't get too high, don't get too low, putting in the work, doing a job.
Morining Ralph, morning Sam...

We play with a similar level of enthusiasm.

Suits the game style we are attempting.

How would that be worse than what we are currently doing?

 

[Sweet Seventeen]

I’m not sure cuners exists, or was ever real to begin with

Actually had a coffee with him this morning, told me he should be ready to play seniors after the bye round.

 

[passmark]

Not longer than me

Eskie when a DOB is required.

 

[Blue1980]

Looked like he was told last night he had to front up for a presser so he did what we expected him to do...
He got onto ChatGPT and typed "Press conference for under-siege captain"...and voila...his script was ready

Seeing as you asked this is what chatgpt came up with:

Ladies and gentlemen of the media,

Thank you for being here today. As the captain of the Carlton Football Club, I would like to address the current situation we find ourselves in. It is no secret that we are facing challenging times, and our team is under siege.

First and foremost, I want to acknowledge the dedication and unwavering support of our fans. Your loyalty and passion are the lifeblood of this club. We understand your frustration, and we share your disappointment in our recent performances. We know that you deserve better, and we are determined to deliver on that.

To our players, I want to say that now is the time for resilience and unity. We are a team, and we will face this adversity together. We must take responsibility for our performances and commit ourselves to improving every aspect of our game. Each one of us needs to dig deep, find our strengths, and contribute to the collective effort.

We are fully aware of the criticisms and scrutiny that come with being under siege. However, we will not let negativity define us. We will use this as motivation to prove our critics wrong and show the world what we are truly capable of. Challenges are opportunities for growth, and we are determined to emerge stronger from this experience.

We are fortunate to have a dedicated coaching staff who are working tirelessly to analyze our performances, identify areas of improvement, and provide us with the guidance we need. We have full confidence in their ability to lead us towards success. We will continue to support them and execute their game plans to the best of our abilities.

In times like these, it is important to remember our core values as a club: resilience, respect, and unity. These values have carried us through difficult times in the past, and they will guide us towards a brighter future. We are committed to upholding the proud traditions of the Carlton Football Club and restoring the winning culture that it deserves.

To our supporters, I want to assure you that we are working tirelessly to turn this situation around. We ask for your continued support and belief in us. Together, we can overcome these challenges and write a new chapter of success for the Carlton Football Club.

Thank you.

 

[Blue1980]

At the darkest point of last week’s loss, I felt the season was slipping away. Opportunity lost.

But nothing in a contest between two opponents is inevitable or insurmountable.

The Pies are flying at the moment, no doubt, but premierships aren’t won in May. We’ve matched up well against them over the past few years and we have the individual parts to do the job. Don’t mind the backs-against-the-wall scenario. The team has it within them to get it done.

We aren’t in Fitzroy 96 territory are we, when we are saying “it’s 36 arms and legs vs 36 arms and legs out there!”

 

[Blue1980]

It's not the length of the fan that matters, so I believe.

The width of a fan also counts

I asked ChatGPT to write me an endearing reply to your post:

Dear Blue1980,

I couldn't help but be touched by your heartfelt post. It's clear that you're facing a difficult situation, and I want you to know that you're not alone. Life can throw us curveballs, and it's during these times that our resilience and unity truly shine.

I admire your courage in addressing the challenges head-on and acknowledging the disappointment that both you and your team are feeling. It takes a special kind of leader to face adversity with such honesty and humility. Your words reflect a deep understanding of the importance of your fans and the impact they have on your journey.

Remember, it's in the face of difficulty that true character emerges. It's inspiring to see that you're determined to deliver better performances and live up to the expectations of your loyal supporters. I have no doubt that your commitment and dedication will shine through.

Your message of unity resonates deeply. Being part of a team means supporting one another, learning from setbacks, and growing stronger together. By embracing this mindset, you're not letting negativity define you but using it as fuel to prove your critics wrong. That's an incredible attitude that will undoubtedly lead to growth and success.

I'm glad you have a coaching staff that you trust and believe in. Their guidance and expertise will be invaluable in navigating through these challenging times. Remember to lean on each other, trust the process, and execute the game plans to the best of your abilities. With perseverance and teamwork, you can overcome any obstacle.

Lastly, I want to remind you of the core values that define your club. Resilience, respect, and unity are not just words but guiding principles that have carried you through difficult times in the past. By upholding these values, you are building a solid foundation for a brighter future.

Please know that your fans stand beside you, offering their unwavering support and belief in your abilities. Together, you can overcome these challenges and write a new chapter filled with success and triumph. Keep pushing forward, and never forget the tremendous impact you have on the lives of your supporters.

With heartfelt admiration and encouragement,

skadoosh

Gotta say it, our AI overlords are right on point.
I may ask Chat GPT to reboot the Weiterbot.

I’m not sure cuners exists, or was ever real to begin with

He has a new nick name you know, "the myth".

 

[katmanblue]

Not sure if I am shorter or longer now

I'm definitely rounder

How would that be worse than what we are currently doing?

Worse? Different. But still the same.

When will it evolve to the level where it can fix Carlton?

 

[SolGoodman]

For all the cliches we have in sports (especially this sport) if ever you wanted a certain opponent with your backs right up against the walls, who better to face than your rival to match all rivals?

If the Carlton badge means anything to blokes that run out on Sunday at 3:20pm, then they will find something from deep within for this game.

Yes, they’re currently the best team in the comp, but for us, they’re the enemy, and I hope this storyline rings true come Sunday night.

Baggers by 14 points.

It's not a god.

I'm not a fan.
I'm a supporter.
So stuffyouse all.

 

[ESKIE]

Much respect Boomer.

Peace bro

After last season alone we'll learn a lot about this playing group if they don't show up with something to prove.

Players should be excited that Pies are up and about since it'd make a win worth so much more to us. You only get so many opportunities to prove yourself...
