We'll just have to see. He might be worth nothing.

In which case we hang on to him, throw $400k at him for a final year and say 'convince us'.

Then he has a blinding 2007, Blue Vain writes to me every week calling me a goose, and I laugh and say "well I've got $500 on him for the brownlow". :lol:

Alternatively, if other clubs deem he is worth something, we start the bidding war. 2 first rounders we say. And we hopefully end up with one.

We're actually in a position of strength in this situation!!!

Carrazzo has begun to shit me to tears. If he marks it he takes the De Luca option of waiting as long as possible until there are no leads left, if he gets it in open play his first instinct is to stop and at best look for a sideways hand ball if not a backwards one. Provides not much run, and is a massive disappintment to me. Definitely delistable


Carrazzo is useless, he usually receives the short kick from a behind and then does absolutely zilch with it, hence his inflated stats.

I hate to say it, but Walker will not amount to much. Three years in the system and his disposal is deplorable.

Stevens aint much better, he is clearly overweight and his disposal leaves a lot to be desired.

Watching the active coverage on Fox Footy and when the players entered the changerooms after another loss, they passed a table at the entrance with Coca Cola paper cups filled with cordial. So what you say??

It just goes to highlight how far behind we are opposed to other clubs. Other clubs hand out gatorade bottles, we hand out paper cups with organe cordial. How the mighty have fallen.

Or it could be paper cups of orange gatorade.

Rubbish! We are a shadow of the powerhouse club we used to be. It's totally embarrasing. We are many many years away of resembling a football club, from head to toe.

Apart from general skills - the first 5 minutes dominating 3 kickable goals for 3 points and then straight after Fremantle through Crowley kick a goal - just imagine if we had kicked 3 goals and Fremantle were down by 18 points - imagine if we dominant for the first 5 minutes against both Essendon* and Fremantle and we kicked goals
Imagine if we ever have a day where someone other than fevola kicks straight for goal
Umpire 17 an absolute disgrace - a couple of gems against us for not disposing of the ball properly - let alone the ones he didnt pay

So how do you know it was cordial and not gatorade?

Why would you empty the contents of a 500ml bottle of Gatorade and pour the contents into a paper cup. You might be right, you could probably fill three paper cups with the contents, instead of giving each player a bottle.

Times are real tough if we are stooping to those cost cutting levels.

It's the bigger picture, don't you think?

Imagine what ever you want. Fact is it didn't happen. Fact is we are shit. Fact is we will be shit for years. Fact is we have a coach that stinks. Carlton is f$#@%d.

Re the gatorade vs cordial. Cordial is a lot cheaper than gatorade :wink: Do we still serve our little boys oranges at 3/4 time????????? :shock:

Either that, or there was more than one comedian at the game using the same line. :P

Given that Coca Cola are the official drink supplier for the club it's either Powerade or Fanta anyway.

This is clutching at straws a bit to just bag the club because I was watching the replay of the Melbourne game when i got home from our match and as the Dees players walked in they each picked up paper cups filled with something, most likely powerade just like ours would have been. Sure we are struggling in many areas but this is one I think we aren't too bad at.

1) I flew down from Canberra for that.
2) I also had to sit through Collingwood and StKilda winning their games.
3) My Freo supporting mate was sitting next to me.
4) The police surrounding the only atmosphere and the ground and asking them to shut up early in the second quarter. (they were sitting near the cheer squad and were shitting all over them in the noise stakes)
5) The absolute spastic joke of a human being behind me who was telling O'Hailpin to get back on the plane all game. What a tard he is. Probably heading back to his council flat to shoot up with heroin and then sit around in his sleeping bag for the rest of the week. cauliflower.
6) Kicking backwards. I don't care if we lose on a 50/50. So long as the 50/50 is 50 metres further up the ground and not 20 metres sideways.
7) Fisher/Waite kicking. Especially Jarrad.
8) The fact that players, especially senior ones, point blank refuse to kick to Jordan Russel. In the 10 minutes or so that he got I reckon he made half a dozen good leads which were ignored. Probably because he was leading to our advantage and not backwards/sideways.

And I can't be bothered going back through - but whoever put the post in about Walker not making it - give yourself an uppercut. He was clearly our best yesterday. At least he had a dip.

Jordan Russell was a negative for me. I like him & think he will be an ok player but what is with him jogging through the middle, into space & not actually demanding the ball. I have no problem with no-one kicking the ball to him. If he wants the ball he'll have to run harder than that. I hope it's just lack of confidence as the reason for it.
