This.
Pagan took North to 12 consecutive finals appearances and two premierships with no money, poxy facilities and bugger all members, he built a gun side from the ground up.
Malthouse has succeeded at three separate clubs taking two of them to premierships, his last at Collingwood with a team of battlers with a sprinkling of top line talent.
Yet they both get to Carlton and our players won't play for them, you have to ask yourself why we are so different and whether the difference is why we have failed for over a decade and continue to fail.
It's about time we stopped looking for scapegoats and looked at ourselves in the mirror if you ask me.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

They have both come to Carlton with the wrong attitudes and for the wrong reasons. They have both become frustrated and impatient and have been unable to behave or coach rationally. The only bloke that came with the right attitude and for the right reason was going fine until he was sacked. The whole thing has nothing to do with the club and everything to do with the coach.
Ignorance is bliss.
ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

That's your call, but it just doesn't make any sense to me.

Makes perfect sense, I just described it in the previous post. You're not going to sit there and tell me either of the two coaches you mentioned took their respective jobs for the right reasons are you? Or that they walked into the club prepared for the task at hand? That they have shown humility or been willing to accept any of the blame? That they have displayed any patience with the playing group? They they brought over anything that resembled a decent gameplan? No they've done nothing of the sort, and here is the end result. The only bloke that actually DID something you AMAZINGLY put the blame on and say was the worst of the lot!!
Ignorance is bliss.

God, I seriously underestimated how bad we are when I predicted us losing by 10 goals. Didn't go but I'll be taking my medicine this Friday night. Can't be helped. Promised people, yada, yada. Anyway, as I said I didn't go but I just saw the highlights reel on the footy show and unfortunately the 'm going all out and making the call now. Unless the coach gets the flick this week we will go down by +100. Make no mistake.
