He is scum and overrated

My god that is unbelievably rude.....

So is he "scum" because he doesn't want to play for us (if that is to be believed)?

Or because he is guilty of the apparent sin of trying to get himself the best possible deal?

Oh yeah that makes him a real arse :rolleyes: !!!

    warnock just wants the visy perks its so obvious. He is scum

    Perhaps he thinks Carlton is a stable company that has a good culture, friendly employees, and is offering a good salary package.

    Since he's reportedly refused to be traded to Melbourne, we could guess that he might feel the MFC is an unstable entity with poor renumeration, and perhaps other negatives too.

    In any other field, I'm not sure anyone would be called 'scum' for choosing the former.

    Fair call, I think, Belzebub59. I bow to your innate ability to constantly change your avatar without any help from the forum administrators.

    Oh, and to further the thread, let's not get caught up in a rucking type player unless we think he can be a 200+cm Ruck Rover who can pull 25 possessions per game, including 5 contested marks, 2 goals avg, and if he can't garrantee 1st possession from ruck contests, then be a competitive engine room partner at all stoppages.

    For the above I would sign up a 3 year contract for $500k first year, $400k second year, $300k 3rd year. But renegotiate contract yearly.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
