Re: Looking for a Grizzly. - LoveNavy - 03-07-2017
I'm afraid memory fails me here. But there was a game, maybe PS, last year where the baby blues got in a bit of scuffle. I remember it being near the boundary line and they (?? Charlie, SOJ ??) pretty much jumped in to help each other. That's a poor account I know.... :-\ maybe Rowe stepped in too...
Anyone remember?
Anyways I was impressed by the fieriness and comradeship.

That was the NAB game against Essendon at Princes Park. Charlie and SOJ seemed very keen to get stuck in.
I spoke to Ed at the members function after the game and he was a little disappointed that Charlie allowed himself to be distracted. While I could understand Ed's point, I was pretty happy to see the young fellows fly the flag

Well done DJC. Yes that sounds right.
Can't imagine why I couldn't remember the details :
I'm glad you, unlike big bro Ed, enjoyed the kids showing some attitude.
Maybe these kids will be our grizzly's.

And there's the current problem with our list, too many who'll runaway under the guise of being professional rather than stand up for themselves!
Reminds me of that game when Murphy got smashed and blokes like Everitt, Lucas and Tuohy just jogged to the next contest past their captain lying on the ground! If I'd been coach, Everitt, Lucas and Tuohy would never have played for Carlton again!
Sometimes flying the flag is not optional, you just have to do it!

You may be being a little harsh on Ed LP. His concern was more that Charlie allowed a bit of biffo to distract him from playing footy.
I suspect that we now have a coach who will encourage a tougher brand of footy. Murphy bitchslapping Viney, Rowe throwing his weight around, McKay coming to grips with Webster, etc are all positive signs.

Note; Everitt, Lucas and Touhy are no longer at the club.
