Rd 12: In Game Attitude: Carlton vs St. Kilda

[PaulP]

Absolutely agree, PP.

But, I reckon that games like this, actually put the focus on the usual suspects.

What you have in the wins, is the good players, bringing the spuds into the game.

Every team has got spuds, but the lower teams like us, have more than the Hawks, Swans etc.


I know for  a fact, that those who make the decisions, are fully aware of the weaknesses, which is why you will hear Bolton repeating the mantra about the long journey.

They are also aware that he is also on  a learning curve, and their aim is to give him the material that will enable him to take us to the next level.

What Bolts has proven, is that with a team re-pleat with spuds, he has had them playing above their weight.

I am really looking forward to watching Charlie Curnow, Harry mack hopefully play a few and Son of Jo play a few.

I know that they are building a war chest to get a big name player to the club. Watch this space.

We are building to a very exciting future, and the bottom line is not to get carried away too much by big wins, or drop the bundle by losses like today, knowing that we have at least 6 spuds in the team who won't be there next year.

It's shame the powers that be couldn't do the same with Ratts, but for me old grudges die hard.

Big name player ? Isn't this a bit "old Carlton" ?

I hope it's not Travis Coke.
