I don't think Clarko would take the job if he didn't have a desire to do it. It's make-or-break time for us, and he basically has free-reign in terms of picking up a cushy media gig without the pressure of AFL coaching. You'd be mad to take the job if your heart wasn't completely set on it and...
Agreed. Being a Collingwood home game as well, I feel like he will really be feeling the pressure. If he makes a mistake he will most definitely hear about it for a while so he just has to play his game and let it all happen. I feel like this is his chance to come out with a quality performance...
I think only now we, at least myself, are starting to separate Daisy from his Collingwood association, which can only be a good thing. I used to feel like Daisy was there to play for Mick Malthouse and not for the Carlton Football Club. We know that without Mick, we would never have recruited...
Definitely agree with that. They would provide some great forward pressure, some of Wrights efforts on the weekend were brilliant including that smother at the end. Daisy, Sumner, Wright and Lamb would do a good job of keeping the ball in our forward line. Daisy and Wright can also kick 3 or 4...
I think at this point, any contribution is a good contribution. If we continue to let his contract hang over his head, we will never be happy. It seems that we can't seem to let go of the fact that he came from Collingwood thanks to Mick Malthouse, which I think triggers a bit of vitriol towards...
I never wanted to see Jones play in the senior side again. Thought we could make do with what we had, and there was no chance he was getting back in under any coach that wasn't Mick Malthouse.
Today I must shamefully admit that I want Liam Jones to play on the weekend. In fact, I think it will...
I have high hopes for Charlie. As expected, this year will be full of little glimpses of brilliance for him. I think he is still a couple of years away from stringing together consistently good performances. He will get there though, you can just see it.
It's just ridiculous at this point. How can we justify having a full forward who struggles to even kick the ball between the point posts?
It's all well and good to be able to clunk big marks but when he can't finish them, it's just a huge waste.
Playing the Bulldogs was always going to be a huge challenge, honestly I was just happy that we didn't get done by 50+ points.
We just really lack the polish in the forward line to kick a winning score. We don't lack inside 50's, we had 44 of them on Saturday. The problem is that if Casboult...
My only hope is that we don't slowly drive him insane. I guess it's a lot easier to have a smile on your face when you are coaching at Hawthorn.
Please Bolts, don't lose your smile. It's all we have.
Very interesting that Plowman is in this week, thought he was still a few weeks away in terms of match fitness. Very keen to see how he goes, although I suspect that he will still need some time to get going. Some very tough match-ups but I think that will give us a chance to see what he can do...
They certainly seem like it, looks like they have all the parts to be a successful side. No doubt that they under-performed last year, I think they will be top 6 this year. Would kill to have Tom Lynch, Aaron Hall and Jack Martin at Carlton, among others.
I have noticed that too. He seems to just go on these tangents that don't end, and if a fellow commentator tries to talk about what's happening in front of them, he can be very quick to shut them down.
