Who would've thought that attacking the contest should be a highly regarded trait?You are preaching to the converted, my main gripe is our lack of harder bodies and Von Trapp kids recruiting style where we ignore the contested harder types and go overboard with the nice kids who have pretty skills.
Gee, this must be a new concept that Carlton are experimenting with. I wonder what Marc thinks about it... Hmmm, obviously there are get out of gaol cards for Marc though because he's obviously exempt from that part of the game.
He's to get out of the way when there's any danger of actual contact, but for everyone else at the club, there's standards to uphold... :-\
Murphy was never going to be a lead by example leader and was a poor choice but I get why the club went down that path....
Judd wallpapered a lot of cracks, we had to turn him into a inside mid to cover for the others and we broke him...Teague knows the same thing will happen with Cripps and IMO is looking at restructuring the team with more contest happy players.
Murphy, Simpson and Kreuzer need to retire ....
