Libba time to shyte your pants.

[jj1978]

As Swan said in the conference... we're focusing on 6 days time Vs Richmond, but the lawyers and barristers on our board will be having a look at what Libba said... the club is peeved at Libba and his slanderous comments.

Libba you're going down! Suck shyte you little maggot!

I'm one that believes in forgiveness but in this case I want the little pishers head!

 

[HBF]

I'm sure most Carlton supporters want the same thing jj. This just smacks of Libba either wanting attention, or to trash talk the club that sacked him at the end of last season.

 

[Optimax]

i agree he shouldnt have said it, nor made any accussations but really did anyone think that playing all the kids would win games (im not saying you tanked you did what we did in 05).

What he should of said we prepared for 08 early not i felt we really wanted lose.

 

[WeninRome]

doesnt it make sense to blood kids when your season is over.

One of the only positive outcomes that can come out of such a shit house season i would have thought. Am I wrong?

well he did... now I hope you suffers the wrath of the what the powerful carlton board can do... dont stop with his house... take every dollar the pr!ck has!

That's what a decent person would have said, but this is Libba we are talking about.

I hope the club take him to court, and take him for everything we can. @rsehole.

It's time to take The Footy Show and Libba to court.

 

[WeninRome]

I bet he wouldnt of said this is Ratten didn't sack him lol

 

[Salaryman]

Seconded.......McChin and Hutchy have grossly manipulated the media for personal reasons. Blatant, disgraceful and an insult to our intelligence

 

[blue gunslinger]

Gee what is the next BOMBSHELL Hutchy will come up with? That the pressure in the footy was 1psi lower than it should have been.

Details Gilly.
Being up here in QLD is tough for following AFL. I don't know how MS and ODN do it.

I suppose my point HBF is that you really have to be dubious when a show run by McChin, with a clear conflict of interest suddenly gets Libba on his show with this shaky story devoid of one iota of proof.

 

[thegrach]

FFS get a grip you blokes. You cannot sue someone for expressing an opinion. Can any of you tell me you don't think Carlton tanked last year?

 

[Obeanie1]

I would bet $10,000 Carlton wont take this to court.

Why?

Because if they took Liba to court they would have to prove he was wrong. And to do that Liba's legal council would call lots and lots of witnesses and cross examine them. Just think of the list;

Pagan
Lance Witnall
Kouta - "So you stated last year you hoped they didn't win? How many other players and officials felt the same way?"
Ratten
Swan
Fev - So were you injured when pulled off late in the game against Essendon? How did you feel about that? Uuuuuuuuu.....gulp!!!!
PRATT - So Mr Pratt, how are you today? Fixed any prices.....I mean games lately?

Just think of the circus the media will make of these cross examinations?

If you take him to court it would be a VERY bad tactical move. VERY BAD!

 

[Thrawn]

Can any of you tell me you don't think Carlton tanked last year?

Yup. I think tanking is bullshit really. It's a myth to justify mediocrity.

But then again, it depends on your definition of tanking.

You cannot sue someone for expressing an opinion.

You can if it's defamatory.

It's not worth the time or effort.

Or money for that matter.

 

[bendigoblues]

thats rubbish

the guy has clearly defamed our club, through sour grapes or a need to somehow remain relevant in the medias eyes.

he should be taken to court and forced to prove his allegations, which of course he cannot.

you cant tell me that if the AFL launched a enquiry into this that it wouldnt cost time and money?

take him to court i say

Cmon, tanking is alive and well in this league. No sane person can deny that carlton didn't tank the last few games last year. Hutchy came to him, why should libba have to lie to protect a former employer he felt were making a sham of the competition. Good on ya libba I say, you were only expressing what most of the footy world felt anyway.

 

[Ninty]

It was hardly ground breaking news, he just said what everyone thought anyway. So why care so much?

The problem is when people confuse the concepts of tanking (deliberately going out to lose games) with the concepts behind list management and development looking forward to the following year.

 

[NWTYRX]

What I want to know is, why would Libba put his hand up to coach us, if he knew that we were throwing games?

 

[blue gunslinger]

Source?

Tabasco with a little lime juice
Hutchy's source is any one he finds in a gutter short of a quid

 

[thegrach]

I think that is a pretty fair question to ask, and probably show the calibre of the man IMHO.

 

[Jeremias]

What I want to know is, why would Libba put his hand up to coach us, if he knew that we were throwing games?

Because he's a money hungry prick.

None of this would have come up like it has if he was still coach. Which I suppose isn't such a bad thing that it did because he did just about shit all for the club.
