    Opinion Trade Period Review: Embarrassing or Stayed Strong?

    Not a chance, I'm comparing the trade and AFC complete misunderstanding of market value for contracted players. The attitude taken into the negotiation was that Gibbs has nominated AFC and that Carlton has to respect his wishes regardless of the deal. The point is and I will make it very...

    http://www.carltonfc.com.au/news/2016-10-10/club-statement 10th October Mackay "Adelaide contacting the media caught us a little by surprise, we haven't heard from those guys at this stage" Pretty clear cut who initiated contact and like I said, very amateurish to do so without understanding...

Very amateurish from AFC going public on day 1 of the draft without speaking to Carlton first to at least get some idea of...

    Autopsy Grand Final 2016 - all discussion in here and nowhere else

    Commiserations Swannies, thought most of your guys had a fair crack and was one of the most exciting GF in the last decade. I didn't want to post until I watched the replay as umpiring decisions always look like a raw deal live, but having watched it again, there were about 4 frees that you...

    Geelong – most loved to most disliked?

    No the reason your coach is a flog of the highest order is because he changes his view on the umpires only when it suits him. Scott view of umpire non-call after cats win in round 12 "If I was them I would have done the same thing. You don't want to make a mistake in that part of the ground at...
