Carlton...poaching Harvey...dirty cheats

Post: # 616854Post Saintschampions08 »

Just read this on the AFL Site... :shock: :shock:

Carlton coach Brett Ratten
"HE'S BEEN an absolute champion of the game to win two Brownlow medals; if you’re looking at role models for younger players I think he’s nearly the perfect person to look at with the way he prepares.

"He’s such an honest player, a ball player, and I think he’s just a fantastic bloke off the field; he’s had a great career, he’s one of the all-time greats of the competition.

"I think it’s pretty sad when players of that ilk fall out of the game and walk away from the game because they’re very hard to replace and I think the game will miss Robert Harvey.

"I’d love to maybe have a chat with Harvs and see what the future holds for him and what his interests are and how much he wants to commit to football whether it be full-time, part-time or what, but we’d be interested to have a chat, yeah.

"But I think Harvs lives out Mount Martha way or somewhere down there so I reckon that would be a fair travel from Mount Martha to Princes Park."

Yeah I heard the dirty rat say that. AFAIC, there should already be a solid job offer on the table for harvs from the saints, if he wants it. Would be extremely disappointed if this wasnt the case.

point I'm trying to make is once you leave a club it's usually better to coach somewhere else so you get a fresh view on things, learn new things etc.

Of course there should be a job for Harves - coming off the bench playing 5 minute cameos for 2009 and 2010!!

5 mins at the start - 10 mins break - 5 mins at the end of each quarter

50% game time - 150% talent

SOS is just doing his apprenticeship at the saints, before returning to the fold at Carlton with some experience.

Will be a future coach there, of that I have no doubt.

I've got no problem with others looking to give Harvs a job. I consider it high praise of the man.

My point is...he hasn't even bloody finished yet.

He's still playing, and their already talking about how good it is.

I don't remember us talking about SOS being a coach for us before he'd even finished. :roll:

all they are saying is that he will have a chat with harvey at the end of his career to see if he was interested in a coaching job

Just shows how highly they value this guy that he is getting these offers before he has finished playing!

They're obviously showing the utmost respect to that 'place' that Harvey talked about being for 21 years...you know the club?

Sure, they might be showing a little respect to Harvey, but obviously are showing none to the club he's called home for the last 21 years.

Doesn't stop the club from offering a job or for robert to decide a year or two away from football is what he wants.....

For a Blue scum Ratten always had my respect as a player and the words are kind from him about Harvs.

And why wouldn't he want to poach Harvs? Shows great judgement from ratten.


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

Somehow, I doubt Harves would want to learn how to tank and cheat your way to a premiership by rorting the system... do you?


The lid is off after Round 2! Enjoy the journey, coz you just don't know where we'll end up. Live for today and seize the moment.
