At the moment my pain at some of our losses is receiving salve in the form of Carlton's situation. In some respects that makes me sad ; to be finding positives in another's suffering, but then after some of the schitt I had to hear coming from Carlton supporters in 2000 & 2001 directed toward myself and my club, I'm taking the "treatment" with some relish! Seriously though folks, they have been underachieving for a decade or more now, and seem to get a smooth ride from the media etc. With a dual-premiership coach (Pagan) appointed in 2003 they were going to set the world on fire; he ended up a demoralized and broken man. Same story with Ratten, plenty of "promise" but ultimately sweet fanny adams for the "favourite son". Now we see Michael Malthouse enter the fray.....perhaps to be another member of the coaches graveyard that is currently Optus Schitthole!

I'm enjoying the money I took from a carlscum supporter who bet me they'd finish top 4! Like taking candy from a baby, or more accurately, like taking money from a deluded, arrogant, self entitled follower of mediocre, cheating scum! End of rant!
I started with nothing and I've got most of it left!
MAN! I know I'm feeling a wee bit ordinary at this particular point in time, regarding the fortunes of my beloved club. But honestly, those Carlton followers must be at their wits end! All that tanking, all that salary cap rorting., all the fanfare and money spent on the messiah (C JUDD!) and they're no nearer to a flag than us! That inescapable truth must really hurt them more than anything!

I remember Sam Newman picked them for the flag at te start of the year as well
Blues show me that lists make coaches not vice versa.
They sack ratten and hire malt house on the big bucks but their list is exactly the same and still finish exactly the same

Wasn't Ratten sacked and Malthouse employed because Carlton had a top four team????
lol - the delusion of the Carlton lemmings. Have heard it for a decade.
Now they cant cheat they look for messiahs. First pagan was going to take them to the promised land.
Then Judd with his dodgey Visy contract was gunna win them a flag.
Then the great picks like Squibbs and Kruezer.
Now Malthouse.
Oh how sweet it is when you can patently see the only reason Carlton were ever strong was because of money.
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>)
Because I dont think he has been charged as being a con man. I was interested as to why he is a con man. I just thought it may have to do with only winning 3 flags. seems I was wrong.

Wow. Fancy a coach wanting to coach again saying that. i would suggest every single coach thinks they will be better than the previous coach eventually. Anyway im not sure I have ever heard him say that but he may have.
