If any of the teams had culture , there'e no way they'd let their players preform in the abysmal footy show players review !

you could add public masturbation to the carlton list of sins plus the fact that a former captain was gaoled....cwrcyn wrote:About 10 years ago, Alan Jeans was in a short television interview during a major St Kilda club function/event (may have been team of the century) When probed about St Kilda's culture, he said that the only problem at St Kilda was not culture, but money (or the lack of it).

Lack of money puts people and businesses under enormous pressure, and when it's endured over a long period of time, it's particularly tough. Just ask the Bulldogs and the Roos
As I've stated previously, if anyone believes that we've had more off field issues than other clubs over the past 20 years, then they've clearly fallen for the hack journo cliche.
West Coast - drugs, drug overdoses, organised crime links
Collingwood - Drugs, drink driving, associations with bike gangs & other dangerous criminals, public masturbation, alleged rapes
Carlton - drugs, physical assaults on members of the public. gambling issues, salary cap cheating, brown paper bags
Essendon - drug cheating, salary cap cheating, assualts against women

Hawthornn - drugs, drugs, and even more drugs
Geelong - physical assaults, cocaine dealing, coaches shagging player's partners
Richmond - Drugs, gambling, links to bikie gangs and organised crime
North Melbourne - physical assaults on members of the public, cocaine use
So, out of all that, we're apparently the only ones with a culture issue in all that time.
Our biggest issue is money, and it has been that way for over 40 years, starting with the crippling debt over the construction of the Moorabbin grandstand, which started a chain of events that we've struggled with since.
