I think Brendon Bolton is gone unfortunately, surly there’ll be a statement early next week by the club ?
Our situation is untenable and unacceptable. I’d have a good look a Silvagni too someone needs to be held accountable for us not having 1st pick in this year’s draft situation is ludicrous and painful. My beloved Baggers have been reduced to a rabble.

Bolton is finished. May as well terminate him now and start the process for a replacement.

Is this what it feels like for a religious person to lose their faith. I feel numb, angry, I'm shaking and feel like I want to cry.
Fouth year of catch phrases for a coach who I guess was always supposed to be a sacrificial lamb. The team has not improved, there is no positive culture, how can there be. There are kids out there getting a game without earning it, so why try harder? They get their game and match payments, they'll be cuddled and told it's not their fault and how great things are, well it's not great at all. The Carlton players in general are pretenders, they give token efforts, drop their heads way to easy and I can't see a light at the end of the tunnel.
If I hear the Carlton hierarchy come out and say be patient and we feel your pain I 'll spew.
I just want to bring one thing up about our coaches. Paddy Dow has gone and hired a kicking coach, we have Bolton and 10 assistant coaches and Paddy Dow has to go find himself a kicking coach....WTF?
There is no one with real values for Carlton and there is only one logical coach to throw the kitchen sink at and it's Ratten. I know he knocked us back before, but in an interview this weekend, he admitted he got the main job too early, throw a crap load of money at him and plead for Ratts to come back to Carlton. It is the only move that will save the club, because at this rate our 60K members will drop back to 40K next season.

CARLTON has suffered a disappointing loss to traditional rivals on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.
Wet weather conditions made it a fairly lacklustre affair between the two teams, while Essendon’s energy around the ground and the Blues’ inaccuracy in front of goal saw them go down by xx-points.
Not only is that propaganda. It's completely lazy and unprofessional. Sounding familiar :
They still haven't fixed it.
That's a minor issue in the scheme of things but is still really poor.

It is that calibre of players that turn up week in and week out and would have been the difference today. Cripps would have run riot - or they would have. We would have to pay the moon to get these guys, so realistically we need the next calibre down or find the older guys coming to the end you can still get some worth from AND who would want to come over to us.
No-one will come to us. The word is out - we're a rabble top to bottom. Why do you think no FA's come across. The AFL has totally botched this and, admittedly, we haven't helped ourselves either. I mean, who in their right mind would come across to a perennial basket case of a club if they are yearning for success in the last 2-3 seasons of their career?
If it was an equitable system FA's should only be allowed to transfer to a team that qualifies through some sort of ladder calculation, e.g. average 12th position or lower for 2 or 3 consecutive years. That Dangerfield was allowed to go to Geelong, or Lynch to Richmond is a total joke.

Rule 124.2.1:
If a Carlton players looks like they have inadvertently been afforded an advantage through good luck or happenstance (e.g. all opposition players stop from the impression that the ball is no longer in play), the nearest field umpire is to blow the whistle, stop play, and recall the ball for a bounce close to the position whereby the said Carlton player took possession (note Rule 124.2.1a below).
Rule 124.2.1a: This rule does not apply to any team other than the Carlton Football Club.

John Elliot was right; "we don't rebuild at Carlton". We still haven't.

How can you judge the players when they are part of such a crap system.
The coach and coaching panel need to be accountable.
Have been saying for weeks now, the coach is out of his depth.
Has zero game plan and the players have now given up.
They went at half rat power today.
If the club doesn’t move him on we will lose players.
We need a coaching group that has had some success at the top level.
Our footy ops manager and coach have 11 games experience at AFL level.
We should chase Sam Mitchell and Roughead as an assistant

Once the others saw that Cripps couldn’t give a carp, that was it.If he did give up, that would be disappointing and I would question if he is worthy to be Captain. As the skipper, you must never ever give up no matter how poor your team mates are, or how poor the coach is going, or how badly you are getting beaten. Frustrated? Abosuletely, give up, never.
