Patrick Cripps, and any other youngster who gets to Carlton knows, its not about how talented you are, but how hard you are willing to work to get your opportunity.
They won't die wondering, and if supremely talented blokes don't get a game, they will know exactly why.
We haven't set the standards for a long time at Carlton, and I believe that this is something we should start getting right. I can think of no better time to make these statements than when you are sitting dead last.
Regardless of all this Yarran talk....
You still want Ellard to be picked ahead of Gibbs, Jamison and Daisy?
Ok, Judd is out...possibly drop Tutt. Who else are you dropping to fit them in?
You will end up having to drop a kid from the side to play Ellard. A kid who performed reasonably well. You want to set standards and reward effort...and that is by dropping kids?
Convince me.
Tell me your the ins and outs for our next game.
To choose from you've got our squad from the crows (minus judd) plus Gibbs, Jamison, Daisy, Yarran and Ellard to choose from.
Go.
