It was great to hear our captain Murphy come out and say they will question our boys as to why effort was lacking against lions...

Martin Gleeson's usually better than this; he's factually incorrect about Levi in his article, saying that he'd been dropped for the game against Brisbane, when instead he was rushed back from a broken thumb/finger and broken ribs too early and his game requires him to crash and bash.
My question is, though, do we need to be far more transparent with our player's injury issues? We're fairly notorious for not giving anything away in our public releases concerning injury', '1-2 weeks' being an in joke of a kind. Is it any wonder, really, that we're getting potted from all quarters from the media who are ignoring the amount and quality of injuries we've had over the course of the season, if only because we simply don't tell them?

Crows are 'desperate' to get Lukosius: Blues
http://www.afl.com.au/news/2018-07-11/crows-are-desperate-to-get-lukosius-blues
With Rory Sloane's decision to remain in Adelaide, the Crows could hold the key to lighting up October's NAB AFL Trade Period in a bid to keep leading draft prospect Jack Lukosius in South Australia.
"I do know that Adelaide are desperate to have Lukosius go to them, local boy, very good player," McKay told Macquarie Sports Radio on Wednesday.

Q. How does a club keep its nerve and stay patient for a long-term plan, when it exists in a world with a 24-hour sports news cycle, a ratio of journos to players that's embarrassing and some impatient supporters?
A. Ignore the noise. Stay the course. Simple - not easy - but simple.

I don’t care if JL is a flight risk. If he wants to go back then one of the SA teams pays a heavy price for him. In the mean time he is ours and he will damn well like it

Spoils the story that the club are imploding and the fans are restless. It certainly insulates the club somewhat; while pressure is certainly being brought to bear, the administration can take implicit assent from our membership numbers that the majority of Carlton fans are behind them, for the time being at least.

Never ring them because that's what they want and forms part of their KPI's.

Really happy to read that Gerry Whately's ratings are diving.
If texting that flog never refer to him by his name but rather Gerry as he really looks the type that would be bothered by it.

You mean you don't agree he puts the 'mozz' on the player kicking for goal? Or that most players are better from further out because they 'kick through the ball'?

Is anyone else deadset amazed by how much we are talked about? In the past week alone there has been articles on
-Harry McKay - Where is he at
-Should we trade pick 1 for more picks
-Do we need to lose against Brisbane to ensure pick 1
-Brendon Bolton - Has never played the game before - is he the right man
-Should we go after Shiel
-Murphy as captain
-Do we have mental issues at the club
-Is the salary cap penalties still hurting us
-Do we need lukosious
-Our leadership problems at the club
-Toxic culture
-Whats gone wrong and who is to blame
-Is Brisbane ahead of us now
Along with the fact we say we dont want a priority pick and were slammed. If we said we did want one we wouldve got slammed. Then KCornes saying we said we dont but we actually do. You cant win
We are talked about so much more than any club its astounding. We are bottom of the ladder who cares

Although, massive mental concerns about sums up his time in the game.
Being backed up by Spud Frawley is not exactly a ringing endorsement
