I'm sure someone can clarify or elaborate a bit more on this, but there was a rumour going around 2 years ago that Richmond met with Cerra (he was a Richmond supporter growing up) and he was told a few home truths by our recruiting department that went down like a lead balloon.

Sounds oh so simple that it's almost laughable, but I reckon you've given the nail a fair whack BB gun. With all the draft and cap restrictions these days there's not a massive difference in the talent available to each club.
Get the full buy in from the playing squad and a quality system from the coaching dept and all of a sudden it's regular finals and possible flags.
We weren't really into him then.
We did consider him earlier, after 12 months at Gold Coast. He was homesick, and wanted to come to us because he grew up with Brandon Ellis or to Collingwood, who he grew up barracking for.
When he was leaving GC, Ellis pushed him to Blair. Hartley said we already had Bachar in that role, so he'd unlikely get a game every week.
Uh oh

We all know what happens to the coach when a carlscum president says he has his full support
‘Not ideal’: President speaks up on Voss future — news.com.au
Carlton hasn’t played finals for a decade and another loss on Sunday moved the club president to speak out about coach Michael Voss.

Never cared this less since the last year-and-a-half of the Bolton era.
Yesterday I didn't care at all. This week I won't either, and I don't care what they do for the rest of the season. Show up or don't, win or don't.
It's not one of life's problems worth worrying about, nor is it MY problem.
And why invest in something when the players clearly aren't?
It's quite liberating and it feels like a tonne weight has been removed from around my neck.

Hear here BB.
I'm getting what you're putting down.
We have 37 years of it and to be honest its only when a side starts threatening to do something that it starts to bring expectation and expecatation hurts.
Tigers fans were full of expectation for one last roll of the dice with the 2 signings from GWS and our season effectively ended when we lost Lynch and now our Coach has snatched it .... but after losing to Essington I'm not surprised.
Its actually easier to live life when your team is in the basement if they win its nice if not who cares.
Durig our recent success I've never been so anxious about footy games.
Letting it go can be most Cathartic and liberating exactly as you said.
Blues will improve mate hang in there they've got the foundation just need one or two more and a complete buy in from the playing group to do it for each other then the worm will turn and turn quickly just like the Flag Pies.
Carlton right now remind me of RFC 2014-2016, teasing the fans teasing the media with the foundation of a good side carried by 6-7 quality key players but not yet committed to each other or trusting each other enough to be willing to sacrifice their own games and reputations for the betterment of the team which was what happened at Geelong and the Tigers after soul searching and hard truths were faced and acknowledge from all parts administration players and coaches. Then history happened afterwards.

“The Gun” Pittonet signed a 4 year deal. Must be on the cheap for that length of time
I think Dimma's smart enough not to go anywhere near the Cartoon job.
List is a mess IMO. Fart too wide a range of ages in their key players group, far too much reliance on 3 players to kick them goals.
I think he would jump at going to Port, they've built a really nice list, its balanced in the right age brackets. They realised their mistake in having a vanilla midfield and have recruited for that. JHF, Butters and Rozee are as good a trio of young mids that any team has.
Definitely Port is the most attractive by far. But Blues could get him immortality at a 2nd big Vic club and sometimes the tougher option is more of a challenge . Plus might want to stay in Vic for kids sake
He is shocking.
Just having Good hands isn't worth a 800k 7yr deal.
He can't kick.
What's the point.
Watch the round 1 match, he had 2 opportunities to kick a goal in the 3rd qtr, he missed we came back and drew.
He misses too many, his team mates would be shattered playing alongside him.
If I hear anyone bag Tarranto shocking kicking.
How a look at Walsh's efforts, he murders kicks
