And you have to like the ex-Collingwood psych Jacqui Louder who has said: "Let’s praise the people at Carlton for caring for this young man so well that he still has a potential career. Let’s not just look at this one episode," -

I always hated him because he was Collingwood but I think it was after some doco (possibly with Bruce Mc) where he explained how they/him constructed a goal from the bounce when they had < a minute to get one, that I started watching him differently And you could see that he is like having a... -

Following on from Pendlebury's comment: I don't follow 'individually' while watching our games so I was not sure if Elijah is always this flamboyant but aware that he did not have a possession, I was watching him AND although he was not getting a kick I saw that he was playing zone defence quite... -

I just want to see Elijah enjoying himself playing for Carlton ASAP, assuming that is something that he wants to do. He has a talent that I hope he can enjoy putting into practice. When I see the footage from Thursday, what I see most of all is a really likeable young man. We have to protect... -

I still fear that Ash Hansen has more of a say than Vossy, Vossy is more like 'captain you admire'. After that 2024 final selection effort by the MC - I have not believed that we could go places unless most of that MC were GONE -

I do not agree with this, Crippa is one of the worst Ever in any team in any era. I love Crippa but he is one way, mostly due to the fact that the little kid grew too big and heavy to run both ways - he could keep up with some opposition ruckmen for that is more his size but it is laughable to... -
