0:30
1-300-736-736 as
0:30
we launch into our Snap Judgments. Jarvis,
0:36
I thought you were in Europe? Jarvis,
0:38
welcome to Snap Judgments. Yeah,
0:40
greetings Jared from sunny Santorini. Mate,
0:43
I've got a few points to get off my chest, so please bear
0:45
with me. Firstly, I'd like to start off by
0:47
congratulating the Cardinal Football Club. Here I am,
0:49
mate, on the other side of the world, and they still managed
0:51
to make my life a misery. Michael Vos,
0:53
if you're listening, no doubt you've been hearing the calls by
0:56
myself, Snapper, and the rest of the crew in
0:58
the last week. If you have any self-respect, you
1:00
will go to the club this morning and submit your resignation.
1:02
You've lost the playing group. Jared, we have a major
1:05
culture issue. Our ex-players, they excel
1:07
at new clubs. Our new recruits, they regress.
1:10
We can't sack another coach, that's why I'm asking for Michael
1:12
Vos to be the bigger man and resign. Brian Cook,
1:14
he's the best CEO in the last 20 years. Adam
1:16
Cherow, we gave a first rounder for you. They've both
1:18
publicly said in the last two weeks, it won't be a disaster
1:21
if we don't make the finals. Are they kidding me, Jared? Are
1:23
they seriously kidding me? What's happened to this once almighty
1:26
club? Why aren't the players playing for the history
1:28
of the Navy Blue? We were once the envy of the
1:30
entire AFL, Jared. We had the strut, the
1:32
arrogance, the premierships. Now we've become a laughingstock.
1:35
I'll leave you with this, Jared, from sunny Greece. It's
1:37
almost 3am over here. I'm about to have a souvlaki
1:39
and reminisce about the glory days. That's all we have
1:41
left, mate. We're always living in the past. You
1:43
lose the Amy Cullman Football Club, you can no longer make
1:46
me, and the record 90,000 members, a laughingstock.
1:48
Enough is enough. Wake up.
1:51
Is it possible, Jarvis, I want to
1:53
ask you this question seriously, is
1:55
it possible that you're part of the problem?
1:58
creating
2:00
a doom cycle around
2:02
Carlton, which is actually infiltrating.
2:05
And the magnitude of each moment is
2:08
just far beyond what it should
2:10
be because the community is
2:12
closed in like this.
2:15
No, not at all, Gerard. Enough is enough. We've
2:18
shown, we've put, we've got a top heavy list,
2:20
we've got some A grade players. All we need
2:22
is a good coach. We have high expectations, of
2:25
course, with Gerard. Like I said, we
2:27
were once the old body coming football club
2:29
and we are languishing and people are laughing at
2:31
us. Surely we can expect more. The
2:33
likes of John Nichols, Bruce Stull, the heroes of this
2:35
club, they must be turning the blind eye thinking
2:38
what the hell is happening? It's not good enough, Gerard.
2:40
Enough is enough. And it's the board too. It's
2:42
across the whole, the whole football club has
2:45
some serious answers to give. We've
2:47
had a gutful and I can't sit here and accept it any longer.
2:50
No more.
2:51
Jarvis, I hope the Greek sun is
2:53
soothing for you. Frank
2:55
St. Glenroy, welcome to you Frank. G'day
2:58
Gerard, how you going? I'm well. Well,
3:02
look, the last probably three
3:04
weeks I've taken the emotion out
3:07
of it because I'm pretty frustrated. But
3:09
if you take the emotion out of it and you just sit
3:11
back and watch them, they're actually, they're
3:14
not as, look, you can't question their effort
3:17
because you can see they are trying. Maybe
3:20
Carlton supporters have just got to sit back and say,
3:22
you know what, we're probably not as good as
3:24
what we think we are. A few
3:26
holes in the, in
3:29
the team, there's players that can't, they
3:31
are, they're still the questionable. But
3:34
maybe this is the year we probably need it. Maybe
3:37
come back bigger and stronger next year. But
3:39
it ain't going to make it better if Carlton
3:42
supporters keep on building the team and
3:44
keep on getting on social media and bagging them
3:46
because it's probably adding to their pressures. They
3:49
will turn it around, but just maybe
3:52
we're just not as good as what we thought we
3:55
were. But next
3:57
year, I reckon they'll.
5:58
Well,
6:00
you call it dangerous, but... Well,
6:02
that's what it is. Yeah, it's called
6:04
a dangerous tackle. Tackle,
6:06
okay. But
6:08
getting rubbed out for that, and the AFL
6:10
being very quiet on that, there's
6:12
going to be a number of players who could actually...
6:15
Well, I know it's been said
6:18
over the weekend, but there could be a number of players
6:20
on that leaderboard who will
6:22
not be eligible because of that. And I think
6:24
that's pretty unfair.
6:25
Yeah. Well, you play to the rules
6:28
of the day. I had a year where tripping
6:30
was an automatic suspension. So
6:33
the rules of the day adjust, and
6:35
you have to be the fairest player, not the fairest
6:37
player in the history of the game, but the fairest player
6:40
by the rules of the day. And it
6:42
couldn't be clearer how the dangerous tackle has
6:44
been interpreted. Pin an arm,
6:47
slap a head to turf, automatic suspension.
6:50
So I think the first 11 rounds
6:53
have been illuminating, and they have been reinforced
6:55
case on case on case. To
6:58
be the fairest player this year,
7:00
you have to avoid laying that dangerous
7:02
tackle and slapping an opponent's head
7:05
into the ground. So the laws
7:07
of the day are the laws of the day.
7:09
And by extension, being the fairest
7:11
and best, you have to be the fairest
7:13
player in the year that you're asked to be. So
7:16
I'm not
7:17
hung up on that. I know there are others
7:19
who are and have made the case on that front.
7:22
But Andrew,
7:25
you're feeling it like some of them are. I'm
7:27
not in that camp. Mark Zintullo-Marine. Hello
7:29
to you, Mark.
7:30
Good morning, Jared. How are you? I'm
7:33
well. Now, last week I called you to say that I drove
7:35
nine hours to sing in excess for 60 seconds.
7:39
And I also spoke about,
7:41
you know, the selectors
7:44
getting a bit creative during
7:46
the week against Freo. But unfortunately,
7:49
that wasn't heard. We tried
7:51
out the same. Just in simple
7:53
effort, especially when Darcy
7:55
goes off with the hamstring injury and there's two on one with Jackson
7:57
and... and
8:00
Jackson, sorry, Gorn and Grundy against Jackson.
8:03
And we still get smashed out of the center. It's been an issue for
8:05
pretty much 18 months. Not saying it's because
8:08
of Jackson, but the simple fact is the
8:10
Ds have not been anywhere near it since we won
8:12
the grand final, whether it's just complacency
8:14
or just, you know,
8:16
like I said last week, just stubbornness in, you
8:19
know, sticking to a certain team
8:22
or a certain philosophy, but it's, you know, I'm
8:24
not going to sound like the old Melbourne supporter and
8:26
think the sky's going to fall. But the simple fact
8:29
is, wouldn't it be surprised Friday
8:31
night if Carlton, considering
8:33
everything that's going on,
8:35
give Melbourne a really good jolt. And,
8:37
you know, if it's not a good result
8:39
on our way, quite rightly, there should be some
8:42
serious questions about how we go about
8:44
business in the footy department, because it
8:46
was an insipid effort once again. 13 and 12
8:49
since they were 10 and zero last year. So
8:52
bookended by the two Fremantle
8:54
defeats. The Demons are 13 and 12. They're
8:57
just not the team that we
8:59
imagine on a pretty good chunk
9:01
of evidence in front of us. Mark, thank you. The

Now, back to Whateley.
9:29
On the text, which is today, 0427 154 166. My
9:36
snap judgment this morning, Gerrard, Saturday showed
9:38
why equalization makes our league the
9:40
best in the world every game a chance. And
9:42
I love my Hawks. The rebuild was
9:44
the right path. I'm a Sydney-based
9:47
Collingwood supporter and went to the game on Friday.
9:49
The best part about Carlton is that they're actually
9:52
very good and are finding ways to lose. They
9:54
remind me of Australia 2 in 1983 before
9:57
they eventually got their act together. Hopefully...
9:59
Carlton continue to self-sabotage
10:02
on and off the field. That's from Tim. Alex,
10:04
I know this isn't the place for logic or reason, but
10:06
isn't this the 06 Geelong season
10:09
and the 2016 Richmond season
10:11
for Carlton?
10:12
And Robin Avondale-Heights, we
10:15
as Carlton fans are the problem and
10:17
have always been the problem. Every time there is
10:19
adversity, we want heads to roll,
10:21
be it coaches, board,
10:23
etc. Or we want to sign a
10:25
big name in the off fields in the off
10:28
season and overpay them. We have done
10:30
it for the last 20 years. What we need
10:32
is consistency and to work through adversity.
10:34
Melbourne in 2018 finished fifth. Next
10:37
two years, they didn't make the top eight year
10:40
after they won the flag and now they are
10:42
a contending team with a gun
10:44
list. Sometimes I think we just want
10:47
instant gratification and that
10:49
has shown itself over the past 15 years. 0427, 154,
10:56
166, the 40 wings, temper, tex, temper, a mattress like
10:58
no other. Baz is in Coburg. Welcome Baz.
11:02
Yeah, good morning, Garrett. How are you, buddy? Very
11:04
well.
11:06
Yeah, where to from here, mate? I just
11:09
want to say, mate, the players,
11:11
their loss, the coach has got no
11:13
game plan. You know, they're hard watch,
11:15
to be honest. You get more enjoyment
11:18
out of watching the under 10 game on Sunday
11:20
and you do watching the last six weeks. They're
11:23
just, you watch them, they
11:25
just basic areas, basically. It's like
11:27
the players are basically shot.
11:29
I don't, they don't know what to do.
11:32
And also, I want to know, do you know
11:34
what part of the game Harry McI
11:36
break his right hand or arm? Because
11:39
he wasn't using that. Mate,
11:42
I've never met a forward that Suicil's
11:45
going up front hand. I don't have any shot at goal.
11:49
He needs a spell. He needs a spell in the twos
11:51
because he's competently shot, Garrett.
11:53
Yeah, well, I don't know whether he needs a spell in the twos,
11:55
but he needs a circuit breaker. We
11:58
debated on crunch time with the. that circuit breaker
12:00
is playing the Jodana Herrock role
12:03
and being the second Ruckman just to get into the
12:05
game, to get away from goal for a while, to get a
12:07
feel of the footy.
12:09
I think the Carlton
12:11
Community Team Club is
12:13
obsessed with the destination rather than
12:15
the journey, fixated on making
12:18
finals as an endpoint and
12:20
that
12:21
creates a level I think of paralysis
12:24
and that's what we're witnessing at the moment.
12:26
Sando says their heads are full,
12:28
I reckon you can see that
12:31
and it's a hard way through
12:33
but you've got
12:35
to find a way through it. Ten shots
12:38
at goal between Charlie and Harry
12:40
on Friday night for one goal. Ten
12:43
shots for one goal. That's
12:46
unfathomable. Cathy's in
12:48
kilo, welcome Cathy.
12:50
Morning Jared, it's
12:52
a funny game football,
12:55
it really is, the weekend
12:57
results prove that.
12:59
Look I was disappointed with my
13:02
Saints but
13:03
I think James Sicily
13:06
has not received enough
13:09
kudos for the wonderful game
13:11
he played. Like Jared he should
13:13
have got six pound my votes. He
13:16
was amazing, absolutely
13:19
amazing and I'm gonna
13:22
tell you something else,
13:24
hysterical football
13:26
fans ripping up memberships,
13:29
throwing things at the TV, carrying
13:33
on like little
13:35
children. Look I've
13:38
been a member of my Saints for over 50
13:40
years, all I want
13:43
is to see apprenticeship before
13:45
I die
13:47
but I don't carry on like that Jared.
13:50
Okay you lost, it's not the end
13:52
of the world and no
13:54
one loves to win more than I
13:57
do but
13:58
get a grip people.
15:50
forward
16:00
to help Van Ruan. And I watched the game
16:02
and I was absolutely so annoyed.
16:04
They were, Mackie had
16:07
Van Ruan, they were together most of the time.
16:09
Up on the wing,
16:11
I'm going to push him back, put Van Ruan one
16:13
out in the square and
16:15
he'll outmark anyone. But he kept
16:17
pulling him over. I don't know what was going
16:19
on with the coaching. They should have been one out
16:21
with him. And can we please
16:23
go back to three umpires? The fourth
16:26
umpire, the interpretations at the moment
16:28
are just,
16:30
it's worse than it has been. I watched, when
16:32
I got home, I
16:33
watched the Suns Western Bulldogs game and
16:35
there were two holding the ball decisions,
16:38
one after the other and the Bulldogs
16:40
ended up, one wasn't paid
16:43
and it should have been against the Bulldogs
16:45
because his arms were free,
16:46
could have got rid of the ball and
16:47
that wasn't paid. But then the Suns
16:50
on the other end got it against it because,
16:53
and the Suns umpire couldn't get rid of the ball because it
16:56
was actually pinned with the ball. So I'm just
16:58
getting
16:58
a bit frustrated. I think two, four umpires
17:01
are definitely too many because ones
17:04
they're waiting for each other to make a decision. Kaz,
17:07
I enjoy your canny observations from a
17:09
weekend of footy. Thanks for casting those on
17:11
Snap Judgments. Let's go through two more. James
17:14
in Essendon, James welcome.
17:16
Good morning, Jared. Love
17:18
your show, mate. Just let me have a say.
17:20
I spoke to you last year, we were the group
17:23
that were getting the signatures to spill
17:25
the board. Yeah, mate. Jared,
17:30
this board that we went
17:32
to the AGM last year and there's only 40
17:34
people rolled up. Now all
17:36
these Carlton members that ring up all
17:38
the time at FreeAW and complain
17:40
and winch, why don't they get down to the AGM
17:43
and face these gutless board members? They
17:45
are gutless. And one of the
17:48
one of the board members that a function was absolutely
17:50
drunk. It was a lady, if that's okay
17:52
to say that, she was told to leave. And
17:54
this is the Carlton Football Club board,
17:57
absolute disgrace. They're very
17:59
good at doing. functions but I don't think they know how
18:01
to win premierships anymore.
18:03
No that's the level of
18:05
disparagement and that's just a bit too much for me
18:07
on a Monday morning James. Steve in Melton
18:09
our last snap judgement. Hello to you Steve.
18:13
Hey Jared I've just got a couple of spoilers.
18:15
The first thing is I think
18:17
Carlton really needs to look at someone like Jack Rewalt
18:20
to go to the club next year. Just give him a touching
18:22
component in the thing Luke Hodge style,
18:25
Sam Mitchell style when they went to
18:27
the West Coast and Brisbane. The other
18:29
thing too is I think Collingwood has three of
18:31
the top ten players in the league in Darcy Moore,
18:34
Jordan DeGowey and Nick Dacos and
18:36
possibly three or four of the top eleven
18:38
with Josh Dacos there and
18:40
Peter Dacos just started at that beat.
18:43
Yes, yes. Steve
18:45
it's a good bloodline isn't it the Dacos's.
18:49
The Kings, the DeConings when
18:52
all the maths are done at the end is which bloodline
18:54
will have reigned supreme the Dacos's have
18:56
got a big head start. Good on you Steve. That's
