Carlton

[Booney]

Shots fired, Juddy hits the target, Lyon is right but Judd shoots and scores.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

Carlton football director Chris Judd has responded to Garry Lyon’s comments the former club captain should do “the noble thing” and resign from his position.

Lyon said Judd and president Mark LoGiudice were morally bound to resign, after unequivocally backing in coach Brendon Bolton two weeks before he was axed from the role.

While Lyon isn’t necessarily in the minority with his views, Judd was quick to put them on the scrap heap.

“Garry’s entitled to his opinion,” Judd told Footy Classified.

“You won’t be surprised to know I don’t look at him as a shining light on how I should act. That’s his call and so be it.

“We don’t have to agree on all topics. Clearly, I’m answerable to the members and the other members of the board.”

Lyon called out Judd and LoGiudice for their duplicity, saying their fates should be tied to that of Bolton because of their previous statements the coach was safe.

“They won’t go. But I’m holding them to account to what they said two weeks ago,” Lyon told On The Couch.

“When you back your man in unequivocally and then two weeks later you sack him … the right thing to do would be to go.

“Lie to us all you want but don’t get sh***y when we don’t believe you,” Lyon added.

“He (Chris Judd) won’t go. But the noble thing would be to go.”

Bang!
Good work Juddy.
Gary Lyon of all people should just keep quiet.

Oh is he still banging his best mates missus?

[MW]

Just cause I guy roots his best mates missus does not mean he doesn't know about football

[Lightning McQueen]

I'd say 90% of that team was gone before SOS
Betts still playing, Kennedy Still playing Menzel SANFL
Bell ?? Waite retired Garlett still playing (mainly VFL)
Yarran Jail Gibbs Still playing (half SANFL for 2 first rounders)
Henderson still playing (always injured surprisingly) Hampson delisted
Touhy still playing
Jacobs still playing (prob last year) Grigg retired Robinson still playing (probably in jail beating up people at music festivals if still at carlton)

Just selling some drama beef!

Kennedy was to get Judd so fair game there.

Carlton paying $2.85 this week.

Nah, weak as piss by Judd.
Lyon never brought up anything other than footy matters. Judd could’ve replied in turn & kept on topic but chose to have a dig at Lyon’s personnel life.
Poor form.

EX missus.

It's a business, you can't go making "announcements" to the media before you have a succession plan in place.

I'm sure Bolton knew he was close to packing up.

I must say I did enjoy Judd taking it up to the cow last night on FC

Don’t know if any truth to it or not but some Essendon people are saying that when Bolton and Worsfold shook hands after the game Bolton informed him that it was over

Smart enough to know.

Poor form.

Still, good darts.

Probably had the $100 in his hand to pay him as he lost the bet between the two of them.

Bullseye.
Plus I can’t stand Lyon.

True.
But if you’re going to throw stones, expect a few back.

[amber_fluid]

Just cause I guy roots his best mates missus does not mean he doesn't know about football

EX missus.

And ex best mate now too.

Yep, sad situation.

Is it?

Lyon was attacking Juddy's integrity with regards to saying one thing and doing another... Hmmmm, I reckon Judd has every right to comment that perhaps someone with a history regarding a lack of integrity might want to be careful as to what they say...

What did Lyon actually want the Blues hierarchy to say over the past couple of weeks? Of course they are going to publicly back to the coach, imagine if they said he has 2 weeks to fix this or he is gone... The media would lose their sh1t about mistreatment of the coach...

Bottom feeders the majority of them...

Yep that was exactly my point.
Don’t attack people’s integrity when you have very little yourself.

People in glass houses.............

Was interesting listening to one of the media people yesterday (can't remember which one) give his thoughts on Bolton, which mirrored a recent post of either Gadj or Jase. Was asked what he thought of Bolton's coaching ability and basically replied with "don't know and don't know how anyone could know for certain".

I always hated Carlton growing up, but look forward to them getting their shit together, think it will add plenty to a competition which imho is getting more dull all the time.
