Round 20: Carlton vs Brisbane Post Game Pain

[IvanAwfulbigone]

Jamo has said he let the loss get the better of him and he was pi55ed that Robbo played so well, hence his behaviour. He actually seemed really shattered with the loss.

Sheesh would've been nice to have Robbo on our side last night.

I like the fact that Jamo was livid.  Much prefer that than seeing our players having a good old belly laugh with the opposition after they've cut us new one.

Have only seen the highlights but where was Robbo the donkey who was only good for hurried "hail mary's" into the forward line and for using his head as a battering ram?
What does that say about our coaching and development?

I agree, Scache is the man.

Crash, if you're reading, does Scache come with leadership qualities?

From the limited highlights i've seen, i'd prefer Schache over Weitering.

JACOB Weitering has emerged a clear winner over Josh Schache in the TAC Cup battle between the two potential No.1 draft picks on Saturday.

...

Weitering, the key defender likened to Geelong's Harry Taylor, gave away 4cm and 6kg to Schache but still beat him in every contest.

Re Robbo and to think he was one bloke that really bled for the jumper and wanted to play for the club.

I'm not really sure whether "the promised land" could be considered a meta narrative. It sure feels like one to me.

We've been promised this land for a long time now. First it was Den Den, then the 3 No 1's, then Pratt, then Judd, then Malthouse, now it's SOS, the new coach, Cripps, more first round picks etc.

We're like the guy who waits at the bus stop, and even though they've been waiting for years, seems either unwilling or unable to grasp the fact that there ain't no bus, and maybe we should walk to our destination. or find some other means. But no, we keep waiting. That bus is surely just around the corner.

Too true. Barracking for Carlton reminds me of that girl I had a crush on in High School.  I was sure she'd stop treating me with disdain and would eventually respect me if I simply did everything she asked.

@bicnic

Dew is out of the running and I think Barker is rumoured to be too - http://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-prem...7484141780

I think Bolton and Burns are still strong candidates.

Thanks MilkIt,
I was told that they flew Dew down early last week and interviewed him. they were impressed, but still had Bolton in front. Dew probably realised he wasn'y gunna get the job, so he's staying put.

John Lloyd, from Perth is a scratching.

I hadn't heard about Burns, but will check with my source to see how accurate that is.

Bolton is as good as over the line for the job I reckon.

3 of our last 4 premierships were coached by someone who came through the Hawthorn machine. Let's go back to the future. Bolton's the man.

Stick with patterns that have worked in the past then.
