Of Course she denies it is Collo but Clems assessment is right given pattern of conduct since 2002 - Leaking of precarious nature of Carlton finances under Elliott was done to undermine Elliott regime at the time of forming Carlton ONE ticket- where did Caro get that info
Who generally got good press from Caro and how many times was Collos name mentioned favourably in Caro articles about Carlton
Why last week Tuesday or Wednesday before resignation speculation was Caro saying on 3AW that Collo was one of the people she respects most in football
Why did CFC sign up exclusive agreement with The Age
Where there is smoke .....
Back to the grassy knoll

CC if Caro states it this way I think we can be reasonable sure that Collo was not the leak. Note the other name in your qoute no. 4... Swan......

But we don't know there are a number of scenarios possible. Journos construct their stories from a umber of sources and snippets of information. There could be more then one board member leaking, and it could (and I believe this to be quite likely) that board members are telling friends the inside goss and one or more of these are telling Caro.

Some of the current Board members really like the sound of their voice, I would not be surprised if they are happy to tell stuff to people and it ends up with Caro via this channel.


I will concede Mikkey that this is plausible. However, if Collo talked to McKay, and McKay has left - then surely Collo's still leaked?

Whilst I'm in sympathy with Carlton Clem's comments, the leaks to Wilson were happening well before Collins took on the presidency.

The Lorraine Diggins issue defies belief, and was she also pissed that she wasn't consulted about the other times #5 was allocated since her father retired?

Idiot.

Good lord, as if shes going to come and say "yeah it was Collo that told me". If Diggins did say what was reported she is an idiot who should go bhack to her art gallery. However wilson is a notorious crap spinner. without the context provided who know what really happend. it might have been ta throwaway line. it might have become a good promotional opp that was missed which diggines highlighted e.g daughter of former club great hands jumper to future star".

Do not put 100% faith in the musings of wilson or any other footy journalist. they are there to sell papers first, report facts second.

So would I. But I don't think that 's the problem. I think she's just pissed off about not being consulted on this... which points to an over valued sense of worth and importance at the club.

If its true, we don't need people like this on the board.
