ha nicely put

I heard him comment on Juddy, earlier in the year when he was out of form, he said something like "the champ is struggling, why not put him off half back where he can get his hands on it".............he also loves Kade was raving about him on another occasion

Just as well. No bigger sin than not loving Kade.
Kade and Carrots. You want half a chance with CFC hearted people, you gotta love those that bleed on the field for the club.

I have a feeling I am no. 4 will be the centerpiece used by MM to show off his transformation abilities. Consider Mr. Gibbs as the wallflower before a prom, just ripe for the make over.
Great bone structure, killer physique, perfect hair...all hidden under drab utilitarian clothing.(ie:stuck in the back line to cover injuries)
Enter the Master Mick, who weaves his re structuring magic, and VA VA VOOOM! 4 becomes an overnight 5 star player. (midfield/forward)
Oooh...you are a GENIUS MM. Wowee..oh boy!!!

I write this, because I heard him commentating about it one day on 3AW.
That was the day I knew he was already lined up as the new coach.
Think he said something like, 'Now why would you use an elite player like Gibbs in a tagger role? What a waste.'

He is not hard enough, he plays for himself, he doesn't go in for the ball, he worries about his hair too much, he should be traded back to Adelaide before his currency is gone...

Because I'm always critised for sticking up or Mr. Gibbs, I thought it was time for me to join the dark side and slag him off..

Having said all that, Mick will definitely have him as a pet project and will run him through the midfield only!

Already has a good relationship with him from the Ireland trip a few years ago and with Simpson as well.

 

[pepalenko]

Just checked 26 disposals, 10 contested possessions, 10 tackles. Quite an un4 like set of numbers. Thought he was going inside a bit more.

In anticipation of new coach perhaps

Corr, you had me worried there for a min! Still new around here.(phew) Ah, Ireland...good point.

What about the steroid induced state team he inherited at the eagles.

He was there for 2 years (including the 1991 grand final runners up appearance) before the chemist started seriously plying his trade at the Eagles. Over the off season between 91 and 92, they collectively put on an average of 17kg over the 5 months.

When he did arrive, they were nothing like they were when he won the premiership with them.

 

[Dramoth]

Nah, I am rarely a stand out at games.

Just the once if I remember rightly?

Marking the ball behind the goals?

Even that was relatively anonymous, aside from the fact I humbly pointed it out.

Ahh yeah... I remember you doing that... if you hadnt humbly pointed it out, no one apart from you, your family and friends would be aware of the fact

I can't take all the credit. TheGeneral made sure it was seen.

Interesting goreds.

Many will suggest that players should just put their best foot forward at all times, yet we know what human nature can be like.

Hoping (really hoping) that Mick instills faith and confidence into Gibbs and Lucas.

 

[The Coach]

Is 4 living in the corridor of uncertainty as he watches the MM posse heading over the hill towards him?

That is something to ponderosa. I love a good western.

TG put the video up... you happily pointed yourself out as anyone would really...

 

[The Coach]

Not sure where we are going, but given we have made such a big move, and a harsh call on Ratts, don't be surprised if I periodically kick the back of the seat, and ask if we are there yet.

I didn't know you were a ranga ODN

Posters are becoming far too cryptic for me these days.

Nah, I mentioned it, TG found it and put it up. I'm not that much of a trumpet blower.

Nah... he was embarrassed enough the first time around

Anyway... getting back on topic...

Malthouse agrees to Carlton deal

Carlton's big-dollar pitch to make Mick Malthouse coach was made in his lounge room on Monday night.
Blues chiefs Stephen Kernahan, Greg Swann and Andrew McKay visited Malthouse's East Melbourne home to formally offer him the job.
Malthouse's wife Nanette was also there and gave her tick of approval.
While the financial details are yet to be agreed, Malthouse, 59, will sign off on a three-year deal worth more than $3 million.

​

An official announcement will be made next week, possibly Tuesday.

Malthouse agrees to Carlton deal

Welcome to Carlton Mick... while I appreciate your qualities as a coach, you still have to prove yourself at Carlton before I throw myself behind you 100%.

Never known us to go so hard after Collingwood people as at right now.

Those bastards are gunna come out all guns blazing post GF, don't worry about that.

Lets hope we've got the shop in order.

Eddie Everywhere is already gunning for us. He is constantly alluding to us cheating the cap again and he wants to get in and examine our books...

Yeah... he can come in and inspect our books... so long as we can go in and inspect his books at the same time... with forensic accountants. There has to be something ****ing fishy going on over there. The number of their big name players who have resigned this year... you could almost bet that there is some currency going under the table over there at the Lexus centre.

Not so much the books Dr. A, but am sure he wants a scalp, ie: Judd, Murphy, Krooz, Gibbs type thing.
