View Full Version : end of the road for Carey
I just wanna say all the best and good luck to W.Carey.People will argue for years to come about, was the Crows experiment worth it. But there is no doubt that Carey was one of the best players of the modern era to put the footy boots.

There's no argument - it wasn't.

Carey a more consistent matchwinning player, but at their best Ablett was better IMO. A freakish talent.

Let's just agree to disagree on this one... ;)
PS: Carey > Ablett

Carey has been a fantastic player throughout his career.
Unfortunately we only saw glimpses of it at th Crows, yet he seemed to be regaining that magic before this injury.

A great player.
And a great lesson is how not to trade by the crows.
I'm glad I saw him in Adelaide colors. He was only a shadow of his former self but every now and again the magic was still there. All the best Carey.

as malcolm blight said - Ablett was the best talent he ever saw, not the best player.
