Pup. Usually you post rational and thought out stuff except when it's about Carlton.

Brilliant story,

great to see the positive side of what Aussie Rules and AFL can do for you men rather than the negatives all the time.

think i might pop this one up in the changerooms at my local footy club tonight, we have a board up for all these positive stories.

For those who saw the show on the ABC "Three Boys Dreaming", would've noticed Jeffy in the background for a lot of the shots of Chris Yarran.

He was at the club, (Swan Districts) when Yarran was drafted, on the footage you can see his hovering around, and went to the Airport to see Yazza off. Little did he know a week or so later he'd be living the dream also....

Good luck to the little fella, hopefully he has a great career....

After round 3, I reckon Carlton are looking reasonable this season. I know they went down by 5 goals to the pies but still, I thought there were some very good points to take from that. Waite up forward, as much of physico as he seems to be, he can seriously play. Took some good marks and with Thornton down, yes Thornton down there at times they looked like they actually had some good deep marking power.
So whats life like after fev, well its not bad actually a few years on and the Forward line structure looks good. Fed by a strong midfield with some good fineds to fill gaps down back like Duigan, Laider and Watson. They probably still need Henderson to come in and let Thornton head down back as at times Watson looked a bit in trouble against Cloke, but still I feel Carlton and really finish top 4. I didnt at the start of the season but they have impressived me so far.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards

Just like when they played Richmond they had 3 good quarters but one terrible quarter, can't afford to do that against good teams like Collingwood. They weren't disgraced last night though.

8 maybe 9?

Only 23 as Turbs said, this contract will take him to his prime at 26/27, then he'll be on the veterans list.

Mr Turnover Carrazzo has re-signed for 2 years and Scotto for 1.

Scotto has been fantastic for the Blues this year. The old man is going well !

We seem to have a rotating injury policy with our ruckman :roll:
He was going pretty well too, finally started hanging on to some marks!

Missed Waite badly yesterday, Kreuzer was quiet, Warnock was terrible and Austin got out marked nearly every time he went near the ball. Henderson got sent back because Lynch and Kennedy where running riot after Jamison went off.

if it was not for Garlett and Betts and even Yarran to an extent then the forward line would have been all out of whack. Whats the answer? Does Waite fix these problems?

Probably Judds worst game for Carlton i reckon, (He can be excused every now and then)
