ODN's synopsis has nothing to do with me, nor with the breaches themselves.

I am only here to set the facts straight and advise on where you got them wrong. In this case, your original source has conveyed the facts lazily and through lack of critical reading, you've failed to identify the gaps and fill them in with a more precise knowledge. Happy to help out.
Ok, I'm happy to concede it wasnt the effects of mid 90's rorting, its just that as a club they have failed miserably to grasp the new landscape of AFL football where you have to build a list, rather than rort/buy your way to the top. In other words, as a club, they are miserable failures in the new environment.


Be wary FuMan, as it's your spite you speak of here.
Luckily, its not my spite.

20 years really doesnt improve carltons record tho.

Nor does it improve Collingwood's. One flag each over that period yeah?

Longest tenure of any coach at any club without winning a flag huh? Really? You blokes should be ashamed of yourselves; your Grand Final stigma heaping him with this indignity. And then when he turns around and gets you a flag, you reward him by sabotaging the next season and moving him on at the end of it. Shameless!

You really should grab that dictionary btw.

Well, as swann said, moving 10 players on at years end..... is that what you mean by moving parts?

Well that would be part of it for sure.

And yet here we are, as we speak, just one position below you on the ladder, with a better percentage, better form against the top teams overall and the coach who actually did the building of the list that your new coach - a remnant from the quick fix buy-a-player 90's - has taken backwards at a rate of knots.

No wonder you feel so spiteful.

Thats ok, we knocked the stuffing out of him, left him a depleted bitter old man, sent him your way. Job done:thumbsu:

Anything more than 2 syllables would be wasted on you.

Which is recognition of your list issues and that 10 players in one year means more destabilisation for a bloke who is not getting any younger (or happier so it seems). You got him 10 years too late, he was a lot happier before he reached retiremant age.

If by spite, you mean amused, then yeah:thumbsu:

What you did is dump arguably the best coach you've had in the last half a century and replace him with an untried coach who immediately put paid to your burgeoning premiership hopes. Job done indeed :thumbsu:

Take the red pill dude and awake from the stories your spite is feeding you.

Coming from the man who struggles with the definition of century :oops:

Nope. Mick would have moved a few on last year but was restricted by a number of issues. I've already shown you could knock 10 off the list without much affect on the senior team. That would just open up competition for our notoriously lower quality bottom 4-5 players.
 
3 in how long??
Do you realise in this millenium alone, 8 clubs have won a flag, but you havent.

Do you realise since you last cheated your way to a flag, 10 clubs have won a flag, but you havent.

what happened to that club carlton that everyone hated?

Do you like being pitied rather than hated these days?

How does it feel, knowing that you are pretty much in the same class of melbourne these days, once powerful, despised, but really just making up the numbers these days. You really only serve the purpose of padding out the TV rights for whomever holds them.
 
Here's a phrase Carlscum supporters don't understand, SYSTEMATIC SALARY CAP BREACH.

What you cheated around those years gave you the asteicks cup 95. You cheated SYSTEMATICALLY!

That means, with intent & for a prolonged period of time.
