Rumour Bluemour Discussion thread

[1981]

The demands of football these days are just so tough sob

Surefire way to ingratiate yourself with the people in charge of renewing your contract...Insult them!

Maybe he wants out - but doesn't want to go back on his stance of seeing out the contract? Make enough noise (especially if it's critical of the head honchos) and maybe they'll spit the dummy and move him on early?

 

[Canyouhearthedrums]

Maybe he just wants to be honest and tell the truth?

Malthou$e is the master of spin - as Bomber Thompson said las t night

"ex Richmond players don't retire or resign hey get sacked"

and when asked about coaching Carlton his reponse was

"probably not"

and his reason (when pressed) was

"I've got the time and energy to rebuild it takes years- but don't think Carlton are a Club with that sort of patience."

 

[1981]

sad but true

Our demand for success now is what ensures we stay at the top end of the ladder.

Rumour on TC that there are rumblings at the club this afternoon. Mick gone?
Only a rumour but this is what this thread is called.

Unlikely.

I mean not unlikely there are rumblings but unlikely there would be movement some 30 hours before a match.

EFA

no quick fixes anymore.

Don't Watch TV Friday night then

I imagine it might resemble a train wreck by half time.

 

[HBF]

I don't get the Hendo trade thingy. We have 0 KPP with his class. Nought

Me neither. We really must want to go ffor a complete rebuild.

Recently had dinner with an old school mate who was on an AFL list and one of the Carlton players that has been on more than 1 AFL list. Obviously i didn't press (even though i wanted to), but he said that while he tried not to read too much into things (too busy keeping his spot every weekend) Carlton was the first Club he has been at where the players quite literally all go their separate ways after training/games/events etc. He said that while they didn't not get along, they arent even remotely as close knit as any other club he has been at. And thats including the guys that have been together 5+ years.

Nothing there you probably can't see if you attend training etc, or watch games. But interesting nonetheless.

Hendo ?

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Who is Andrejs Everitt?

 

[95blues]

Hendo ?

Nope. Pretty easy to figure out i think.. but i'll leave it with you.

 

[Bluella]

That wouldn't surprise me. I remember being pleasantly surprised seeing some of our brand-newbies showing more team spirit in backing each other up last year than our senior guys.

 

[AceAndy]

So you watch Jeopardy I see

 

[95blues]

Who is Andrejs Everitt?

Nope.

 

[AB_Blue]

Daisy?

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Darn.

 

[AceAndy]

Nope. Pretty easy to figure out i think.. but i'll leave it with you.

Ok, say no more

 

[95blues]

Ohh, he also mentioned that he thought it was odd that the only players that were really close, are no longer at the club. Mitch/Eddie/Jeffy etc.

 

[Pick7]

Tutt?

 

[95blues]

Tutt?

Nope.

Geez... didn't realize we had that many with multiple clubs.
