Menzel is woeful infront of goals, misses so many sitters

I call Bull Sh1t...

In his career he has kicked 38 goals 21 before tonight...

Pretty good if you ask me...

And of the 21 he has missed most would be 15-20 out. Looks far better kicking from 40+.

Do you have anything to remotely back that up?! Or just your extensive knowledge of players of the club you profess to hate so much?

Couple of absolute shockers tonight, missed one from close range last week and ive seen him miss several ones from close before. Looks really good on the run and from further out but looks like he just pokes at them from close range. He has no problem getting the ball and would be one of the few players that would have any currency

Bryce Squibbs off with a back injury, on closer inspection the club doctor found he had no spine!

Pay that Rocket.

Unfortunately when you're bottom, you have to have a laugh at yourself. I'm happy to oblige (sadly).

I made a $250 bet with a Carlton supporter during the pre-season about the time Dick Shitehouse said "I can't see us losing a game" that Port would finish higher. At this stage I'm quietly confident

I think it will be locked away as a mathematical certainty by about Round 13

Geelong by 5 goals

no disrespect to your mate, but that would have to one of the dumbest bets i have ever heard of...

I'm happy to say it. You're mate is either an idiot, or is Mick Malthouse.

If Port win Sunday we have enough wins to get me over the line for the season in the bet from what I saw tonight

[carey]

That's still a big 'IF' mate.

Hmm.

Ok, lets have a look at our list.

Laidler playing for Sydney - told by Mick to learn how to play HFF and delisted.
Waite playing for North - offered one year, played most of the previous year in the ressies.
Betts playing for Adel - says in the media during the week his role was diluted by the coach
Garlett playing for Melbourne - delisted
Robinson playing for Brisbane - delisted
Watson recruited as a CHB, being groomed as a CHF - looks like being delisted
Rowe recruited as a CHF/FF, playing CHB/FB
Yarran isn't a backman
Simpson isn't a backman
Cas can't kick

Won't play the kids, won't give them some game time...

We have no game plan!!!!! Zero. Nil. Nada. Move on.....

Again, we win contested stoppages, so it's not our MIDFIELD FFS!!!!! We have nothing to kick to.

I heard a stat somewhere maybe here that the Blues have traded away their leading goal kicker for the last 3 years. Not sure who they would be but I'd be guessing Betts, Waite and possibly Hampson. Strange list management

Waite, Betts and Garlett.

But, exactly! Tom Bell, 10 goals. LOOK OUT!

From the AFL website:

CARLTON coach Mick Malthouse's tenure at the Blues could soon reach an end if his side continues to produce disappointing performances, CEO Steven Trigg has admitted.

"There's potentially a point (where it ends)," Trigg told radio station 3AW ahead of the Blues' Friday night clash against Geelong.

"In striving to be respectful to Mick, we're trying to get to a situation where we work our way out of this."

Malthouse's job at the Blues is under increasing pressure after criticising the club for comments made about the way it chose to publicly express to fans that it was indeed "rebuilding".

Rebuild a dirty word for Malthouse

Trigg said he was "surprised" and "disappointed" by Malthouse's comments, especially considering the coach had been privy to the list management meetings over the summer.

Trigg also said he would speak to Malthouse, who is out of contract at year's end, about his comments.

"They surprised me, because I felt that we had been on message for quite some time and the amount of work we've got to do with our footy club and the list," Trigg said.

"Mick's been involved in every list management meeting over the summer and pre-season, and therefore knows the work that's in front of us and the plan that's in hand to build Carlton back to a dominant position.

"He also knows that we chose to deliberately use that phrase (rebuild).

"I personally said to him that if we're going to use this terminology we have to be crystal-clear that it can be managed, and he was with that."

The Blues find themselves on the bottom of the ladder with just one win after seven rounds.

Carlton has been belted by Collingwood (75 points), lost to the lowly Brisbane Lions (by nine points) and got thrashed by Greater Western Sydney (78 points) in the past three weeks.

Trigg said Malthouse's infamous pre-season declaration that Carlton would not lose a game in 2015 forced the Blues into publically stating they were in 'rebuild mode'.

"We chose to call that out, strategically, because there were some mixed messages," Trigg said.

"Our members were saying, 'Where are we at?' and I was getting a lot of correspondence about this.

"After a couple of rounds of confusion we wanted to be really clear about it and called it out.

"It had nothing to do with dampening expectations, it had everything to do with being honest with our fans."

Trigg said the board would stick with its decision to review Malthouse's coaching contract in the latter half of the season.

If the board comes out and says he has their full support, he will be gone in two weks.

That's already been done Doc.

Mick wants to be sacked to ensure his contract gets paid out. That stubborn bastard will never step down.

There are 700,000 reasons why I wouldnt stand down either if I was in his shoes.
Force them to sack you I say
