The new chap doin the ruckwork is a breath of fresh air
Although about 5 years behind in experience when being compared to Josh Fraser, the new chap doin the ruckwork is a breath of fresh air.

At the very least he knows how to time his jump properly and hasn't already jumped when the ball is still in the air.

The boys are still getting smashed in the clearances. Will need to address that or will be smashed by Geelong.

Otherwise a satisfactory effort in my opinion.

Um . . . . what am I missing here?

My opinion last week was to get rid of Fraser because he still cannot ruck properly after this long in the game, you even agreed.

Now I'm saying this chap is a good replacement. . . . . .

Errrrrr . . . . Is there something here that I am missing?

Why would I want to get rid of this chap in 5 years when I have clearly pointed out I like the way he rucks even with 5 years less exerience than Josh?

Are you really that dumb? or do you just play dumb?

Why would I try and prove you wrong when I don't disagree with anything you have said . . . you have me stumped Bobby boy.

I have not the foggiest what you are on about.

Last week I said Josh was no good, and after 7 years in the game he should be able to ruck to a certain standard.

This week I said after Friday night's performance the young kid looks to be doing a better job and he has 5 years less experience.

Where on god's earth do you get anything about me wanting to dump Cameron Wood in 5 years?

You said -

how bout you guys try and win with some dignity instead of free kicking your way down the field and bleeding every stubbed toe for everything its worth, it still wont get you up the ladder..... you guys were that desperate that you punched and kicked your way thru the players and got paid free kicks for it you guys wouldnt be doing deals under the tables with the umpires would you, the apples dont fall far from the tree and it wouldnt surprise anyone..... cheats

13 Apr 2008 18:25
yeah it was nice of the umpires to give carlton a free kick for every time they stubbed their toes.... its a shame you can kick a punch us up and get free kicks for it i wonder what would happen if you guys actually played fair.....

13 Apr 2008 21:30
you only wiped the floor with because you had an unfair advantage of the umpires paying you free kicks for absolutely everything, thats why carlton had more possessions thats why carlton had more marks, because the umpires kept paying you the bloody ball for no reason at all

JESSICA: Who doesn't have any idea now?
ROBERT: How's that for a cut and paste job muppet?

Oh and you still going on bout this bloody argument only proves that you have some sort of obsessive compulsive whatever, because you cant let it go, come down from the clouds love.... none of us live on cloud imagine with you!

thanks fanny boy you just proved my argument! that "paying the umpires" wasn't my initial comment and anyone with half a brain (more the Carlton supporters than you) can see that i was not very happy bout losing that game, however i say it to you again... I went to that game and I stand by what i said when i said "the umpires to give Carlton a free kick for every time they stubbed their toes.... " regardless of whether they played better or not....
yes maybe i got a little carried awaywith that comment
"you guys wouldnt be doing deals under the tables with the umpires would you, the apples dont fall far from the tree and it wouldnt surprise anyone..... cheats" BUT IF you can read, you would know then that my comment was more of a QUESTION! Rather than a blunt accusation.... Hows that for a CUT AND PASTE JOB you walank!

I like the way you have turned my comments into Josh Fraser and Cameron Wood into me having to prove you wrong. . .

Very confrontational Won't work though!

No need for cut and paste, you are a muppet

People have good memories Daniel. I don't need to cut and paste. Everyone remembers you saying that you have never asked Carlton supporters to be your friend. And then call me a liar. To then go on and say YES YOU did say that. How deep do you want to dig this hole.. If you want proof in writing or facts as you claim.Then go into those archives you talk of .. They are there in BLACK and WHITE. Something you aren't... YOU also are not a MAN of your word. But thats another story.. You are the liar It's been proven. It's in the Archives Daniel son!........

Ahhhh I still don't know what you are trying to prove Robert . . .

I really have no idea what you are trying to say . . .

I would really like you to just explain what you mean by me wanting to dump Wood in 5 years?

Last week I said that we should get rid of Josh Fraser because he can't time his jump and he spends alot of time on the floor.

This week I said that the new ruckman looks to be doing a better job and he has 5 years less experience than Josh . . .

I don't know what you are having a go at me about . . . Please explain
