Haven't listened to the current episode and probably won't. I've been finding Gecks pretty painful listening in the last two eps - just a bit of an arrogant yet whining tone that he didn't have last year. He even managed to fill an hour with whinging when we won. I get enough of that from the Carlton supporters I am close to. All for constructive criticism, but the whinging makes me want to throw my phone at someone.
Painfully keeps bringing it back to what he wants to talk about too, even when the other two try to move it on. If he's grating on you, this is certainly a skippable episode. He's not great to listen to here.
 
Andy touched on us (approximately 37 minutes in) not having any specialist small/medium forwards or a small running/lockdown defender on our list, mentioned our recruiting strategy of, first the key position players then midfielders but not recruiting any specialist small forwards and defenders during that time. He thought it was dumbfounding and miles behind the rest of the competition with how the game is played with those type of players, rattled off multiple players other clubs had at their disposal... It's something I've personally haven't been able to understand why we haven't as well, also have never heard it discussed by them on the podcast at all until now but I'm glad it's something they have finally recognised, it deserves to be looked at why?

Guys and Gals we are witnessing greatness here with Crippa. We’ve got a young bloke here who could very well end up one of if not the greatest captain our clubs ever had. **** all the negativity of the rebuild and losses and all that. Just sit back and enjoy the show. We may never have another bloke as capable leading our team in our lifetimes. The guys a freak footballer and a good old fashioned footballer. Man crush is an understatement
Well said Joey:clapping::clapping:
 
Good listen, insightful stuff.
Very insightful, feel bad for him fronting up when he’s such a champion having to deal with the Carlton are shit condensending underlying tones.
People are quick too defend Marc Murphy for being such a great loyal servent, this blokes still dealing with the fallout.

I work with his brother and I can tell you that these guys bleed “navy blue” - whatever point Gecks wants to raise he’s raising it because he cares and it’s relevant.

The why is because the person in charge of List Management has ****ed up.

It doesn't qualify someone as an expert nor as a good podcast host. I respect what he's doing and the passion he shows though. Nothing against him, probably a great guy.

This only goes to show how cleverly our society has been fooled into thinking progress is all good.
In the late 90s if you threw a phone (brick) it did some damage, not any more........
 
How is this putrid excuse for an "informed" Herald Sun "journo" still in his bloody job?????

What a waste of oxygen this campaigner is.
