You're spot on. Get him in as a medi-sub for a quarter? No damage done. But, a player goes down in the first 10 minutes and he has to run out a full game in a GF? Nup. Not worth the risk. It's bad luck for the guy, but from all accounts he isn't a great person. Karma I guess.
So it's the game plan's fault that he has stunk it up this year? I've seen many an excuse for Marc, but this one takes the cake..
He should never have gotten a game this year. It's a feel good story before football success. It's rubbish. It's the reason Carlton will continue to be cellar dwellers.
Marc Murphy being gifted games to get to 300 is everything wrong with this club. I think it will be fitting that no one will be there when he reaches the milestone. Just like he hasn't been there in contested situations his last 100 or so outings.
Also does Teague and co. have any semblance of...
Think you're going a little hard on the "industry leader" business. He's good, but from all accounts has his finger in too many pies at the baggers. Dabbling in psychology? The man doesn't even have a degree in anything relating to psychology.
Go back to overlooking the physical capabilities of...
My comment has failed miserably. I wondered why the grass was so green and the sky was so overcast.
Carlton are bad though. Like, the club should fold bad. But hey, at least we have a new sponsor. That's exciting.
How about Murphy shirking the ball and raising one arm in a marking contest. How was this bloke captain?
Dow is killing me. I want him to succeed so bad but ffs turnovers.
Let's face it, Murphy up until maybe 2012/13 was awesome. In 2011 he was unstoppable. But that's 10 years ago. Metcards still existed then..
He has been on a slow decline from that point onwards in my opinion. Yes, granted he copped some heavy knocks that hindered his performance and want to...
We have all the talent in the world. But we continuously make really, really, reaaaally stupid mistakes. That turnover from Cripps - needed to go boundary and take the percentage kick.
I’m loving the intensity from the lads though. Can’t fault their efforts.
Pittonet is the most ineffectual...
Doing what he usually does, using it well on the outside with little pressure but going to water when opponents are anywhere near him.
As I said, I don't rate Murph as a player. Haven't for about 5 years. But if this was the game to drop him, I'm confused how he kept his place the other games...
Yeah, I do recall some very Murph-esque moments in the first half. Lots of "nah I won't pick up the ball and get my head over it, I'll just hack it off the ground". But credit where it's due, he played a ripper second half.
Yeah, it's not going to be pretty football to watch. Think we'll be...
I'm definitely not a huge fan of Murph, but I can't knock his game last week. He turned it on in the 3rd.
There's been ample opportunities to drop him and send a message to the playing group throughout the season. Yet, he's dropped after his best game this year? Very strange.
As for Levi...
