And I think plenty of non Carlton supporters are enjoying seeing him reap the rewards of his decision to stay on.tiges said:

artyfest :birthday :bdaygrin ooh :rotfl.Got some respect for old MnM but apart from that must admit I'm very impressed with the job Carlscum has done on itself in recent years. Amazed that they could actually follow a similar trail to self destruction as the one we blazed so many years ago. Fools of the highest order.
If they are as dysfunctional as it seems at the moment, I can see a poor coach selection coming up.

Does Laidley want to coach again? He'd be their best bet as interim coach for now.

I reckon he'll be gone on during Monday.

They have been on that trail to self-destruction for a good ten years, maybe even dating back to their 1995 flag, after which they basically allowed Parkin to choose his own successor. Once the wheels fell off a few years later, it became a Masterclass in Richmond-style bad decision-making. The untimely sackings of Brittain and Ratten, the ill-fated coming and going on Pagan, now mirrored by Malthouse's sorry tale. In between, there have been the Fevola nonsense, poor recruiting, salary cap breaches, the occasional Messiah, whether it be Richard Pratt, Chris Judd, Micky, Denis, SOS or Even Jeannie Pratt.
Richmond wrote the manual in 1982. Carlton have turned it into a best-seller that would make Harold Robbins proud.

Yep, back in '78 I wrote these cheating pr!cks off when after 6 rounds they were 1-5 and had gone thru Ian Stewart and old Serg as coaches. ;D
Didn't last very long, Jezza took over and things went back to normal for them (cheating, lying, stealing, poaching, winning) :'(

I heard Bruce macainniny on the broadcast last night saying "next friday night, Sydney and Carlton ..looking forward to that one". I said to myself at the time "why?"
On reflection now I think I am looking forward to it myself. Nothing like a humiliating defeat of the scum on a Friday night to help set up an enjoyable weekend
Stylo agree. Looking ok GWS.
Players will want to stay at least another 5 years and see of a flag comes their way.
Still there are no guarantees. If some of the young players get thrown godfather $ , injuries loss of form and back in the back.

How are we going to trade for this year's Brownlow Medalist , we may have to settle for Daingerfield or WHE instead .
Dylan Shiel another outstanding game today .
