I didn't think it was a banner.
Was their players sledging the saints once they were out of contention for the 8 from memory.
 
That’s why we’ll run clubs don’t let coaches near the draft table or list management. Only need to look at what happened when we let Terry do everything. He made short term decisions ditto Malthouse at Carlton.

Mick came in and decided a list that needed some polishing under Ratten needed to be blown up and rebuilt. Plenty of the players that we have the likes of David King would delight in calling list cloggers, given a good game plan and surrounded by quality players and they shine. Same would of happened if the Blues hadn’t kicked out any player over 24 who wasn’t a first round pick and replaced them with skinny kids.

Carlton had a decent team when Mick took over.

13-9, & 7th in 2009, lost elimination final
11-11 & 8th in 2010, lost elimination final
14-7-1 & 5th in 2011, lost in semi-final
11-11 & 10th in 2012 with a percentage of 108%, missed the finals

Then first year with Mick:

11-11 & 8th, lost semi-finals

In early 2012 they were one of the premiership favourites. They had a strong 2011 and started 2012 with a 5-1 started which included some massive wins (including a 10 goal win over a dominant Collingwood side). Injuries ruined them that year and by the time they played the Gold Coast they had about 11 of their best 22 out injured. That was the loss that ended their season and this was when losing to the Gold Coast was utterly humiliating.

Ratten's sacking was a massive knee jerk reaction. I hope he gets another chance.

Brayshaw was trying to guard the space, which is laudable, but he was oblivious to the fact that Dangerfield was the nominated ruckman.
He should be aware of Geelong's tactics, I gather they use Dangerfield in the ruck from time to time.
Communication is the key.
Just as the two Melbourne players spoiled each other on the final kick-in, punching the ball back into play, they should have been aware of each other and allowed one to take the mark.
It would have been all over and they would have had the final set shot at goal.

Ratten from memory was quite good at the chaos footy that is successful now lol
 
Carlton are so shit if this keeps up and Hawthorn win by 12 goals I think it was and GWS get up over Port in the downhill skiing cup Geelong will be out of the 8 despite last nights win.

Was a great moment when all their self entitlement worked to **** then up. I was in Crown listening to all their prick supporters bragging about how they were taking Malthouse out for dinner and working to knife Ratten half way through the season. The loss to Goldcoast was just the opening they were waiting for.

Delicious.

I don’t think they deserve a priority pick either as they are exactly where they wanted to be. As they keep bragging they have delisted the most players in the history of forever and wonder why they are completely uncompetitive. They have shown a complete lack of respect for the competition are effectively fielding a juniors side and expecting everyone else to cover the lost gate sales and lower tv revenues.

Every opportunity they have had to acquire talent they have passed over in the chase of more kids and picks and were allowed trade their best player for more future picks. They are shit by choice.

"Carlton's lack of ability to transition possession from defensive 50 to forward 50 has been telling, doing so just once from 24 attempts (four per cent). This rate is well behind the average transition rate across the league this season at 20 per cent."

Was driving and listening to SEN yesterday at about 12pm and they said Tigers were on 99k members.

15 minutes later the same crew were speaking to Eddie McChins, they said that Collingwood were the biggest club in the land, with West Coast the second biggest. Eddie also said that the Pies would be confident to beat Tigers next week if they didn't have injuries.

Did lol. We will smash them by 67 in front of 100k next week.
