five foot ten little guy gets his jaw broken putting his head over the ball a few seasons back and still consistently puts his head over the ball
BF keyboard warriors line up to declare him a weak soft ****, sissy, whiny bitch
great thread

100%.

It's not Murphy's finest moment by any means, but christ some of the logic and dot-to-dots from Saints fans and others in this thread is staggering.

I don't remember which 2 were which, but he has had his collarbone and his jaw done by Hodge and Dangerfield, two of the toughest, most solid bodies, attack-the-ball at full speed guys in the comp, while Murphy is as you a say a five foot ten little guy. But nah soft, no courage at all, just because he lost his temper after copping some fierce sledging?

Ohhhhhh I see it's his workplace.

Well he should probably have a chat to HR about all those people that physically assault him everyday on the job.

Seriously, people that can't recognise the difference between a competitive sport and what amounts to day to day for the rest of us need to put their chai lattes down and smack themselves in the face.

Murphy is a whiny little bitch, and a complete embarrassment of a captain.

Matter of fact, if I were an opposing side, i'd be looking long and hard at how pissy Murphy gets when you talk about ******* his missus and be at him from the first bounce every game going forward.

Sorry Jade, I am confused who is the "whiny little bitch"?
 
What is ridiculous about the whole thing is: Why you can insult someone in the most personal of ways yet stand back and be moral arbitrator of what their reaction should be and /where the line is? What is the line? Who determines it?

Engage in sledging and you're fair game. No problems with what Murphy did.

Actually is precedence. Wasn't it Des Headland that snotted Selwood of West Coast and the tribunal deemed Selwood's sledging to be in poor taste so basically cleared Headland and said to Selwwod cop that.
Do you remember what Selwood said? If someone in the crowd shot him they would've walked and rightly so.
No it makes him weak as piss.

Was he offended? Insulted? Who gives a shit? **** off with your hurt feelings you sobbing infant.

Nothing actually happens. Murphy doesn't go home and find his wife being picketed in the street for being loose.

Harden the **** up you pathetic excuse for a captain.
If someone goes out and calls Cyril a ****** and he reacts does that make him a weak as piss sobbing infant?
I'd just like to hear your personal opinion on this as you have a level headed, intelligent approach to the tough issues.
 
there were a lot of football positives carlton would rather be talking about than this

100% Agreed. Carltons foot skills were outstanding and the young guns were really shining. Was expecting them to fade out or run out of legs but they kept going harder and harder. A lot to like about Boltons coaching. Would be great if the stories were really about this and the positives of the game except its all about exasperating some minor drama which both teams have clearly already moved on from.
 
You reckon he's had the snip?
Not sure if that or the still lovely partying ways of old Carey. He and Jakey have a bit in common in that regard (but I reckon so do MOST of the AFL, including players, media and administrators). Notice they're keeping pretty quiet about the whole NRL thing. It's rampant!

If not the snip, what would have sent him sterile? Radiation poisoning?

I love a bit of goss. Do tell.

great thread
He has been injured more than once in the same way, with his head over the ball.
Funny how we're only hearing the Carlton side of things. What a squib.

No we heard the Saints side, but it was all made up crap. Spitting nope, contact nope. Suppose there will something to do with dwarfs or selfies next??
 
There was an incident on the weekend which saw Murphy momentarily lose his cool and act in a manner many believe is not befitting of a club captain.

I do not subscribe to this but I did wonder about Murphys poor reputation on bigfooty and if it is undeserved. If I had to sum it up in a sentence - Murphy is weak-bodied squib and a poor uninspiring captain very likely to go missing when his team is struggling.

To me this is wide of the mark. Murphy is overmatched physically opposed to modern midfields but he is courageous and often subject to extra physical attention sometimes overly so. He has a cool head and is rarely involved in the push and shove and would prefer to just get on with it. Murphy is a very skilled player and can cut you up inside and outside.

An appraisal of his captaincy is difficult from the outer but he has been in this position for five seasons and is most likely the man to lead Carlton out of the doldrums.

I like him but I wonder how the greater football community views him so differently to me.

So that's what this thread is for, tell me what you reckon about Marc Murphy.

Murphy has been a good to very good player.

Problem is that being a number one pick AND Carlton captain means more was expected of him.

Was never going to challenge the scorers as far as being a 'great' player though.
