And totally unoriginal, using exactly the same language that Goody and the players used


Soulless, feckless, gormless, absolutely. Selfless? Give me a break!

And there is the first club to start mimicking everything we do.

Weird feeling this.

Easier said than done. If it were easy everyone would have done it by now.

 

And so it begins.

Our players will be lauded as Superstars. We will become the hunted. Everyone will want what we have and try to replicate our game plan.

A simple one two hand pass between Petracca and Oliver will be called incredible by commentators.

Salem will be lauded as the best kick in the league every time he gets the ball. Even when he missed one it will be a rare miss.

Are you saying there is a problem with this? The boys should start bottling their urine, they can sell it as champagne 😁

It is possible with Cook as CEO but they are kidding themselves if they think it’ll happen over a preseason.

They have a much better list than we did in 2014 when Roosy took over. We however started an organizational facelift from that year onwards. We brought in Roosy’s Sydney assistants. We rejigged our football department. We started learning a new game plan and defensive fundamentals. Us becoming ‘selfless’ was merely the final cherry on top after we had spent the last 7 years making the sundae. Richmond and Geelong’s breakthrough teams were no different.

If they think they’ll just snap their fingers and become a premiership team, they will be demonstrating exactly why they have failed from 2014 onwards.

SOS is a complete [censored].  The nuffy uses a fake name on big footy to spread rumours.

Certainly is!

Wait till they do the player profiles for this year's draft prospects. We'll probably start seeing the "plays like.... " line, and it'll be one of our guys!

But its true anyway.  - Just now will be rcognised. 

"Carlton" and "selfless" don't belong in the same sentence.

Cripps to defensive wing 

I think Cripps should be a top five player in the AFL, however he as optimised “trying to do it all himself” for too long now.

If Carlton get things right they could jump up the ladder pretty quickly with their list.

Can't wait to see guys like Williams, Martin & McGovern talking about selflessness and team first cultures as they pocket half of Carlton's salary cap between them.

That said, there is enough talent on Carlton's list that they should be playing finals next year.

A lot depends on Cripps. Shades of Trengove - lost mobility. Against MFC this year, couldn't or wouldn't kick. Other than Walsh, nothing else in the mids.

They have a good spine, but Jones is overrated as a defender (interceptor only).

In passing, Coniglio seems to have the Trengove effect as well.

I'll probably be corrected but regardless of the list, I don't think many coaches have taken over and got to a flag straight away - it usually takes years for players to learn a new gamestyle and for the coach to tweak the list to implement it.

Scott is an exception but they had already won a few flags.  Bevo maybe the other exception - except McCartney had laid the ground work with a number of their young players.  Could we say Teague has done the same?

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    The Demons are back on the road again for the third time this season when they take on the red hot ladder leaders the Sydney Swans at the SCG. Can the Demons take another big scalp? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
    Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.
