Toast The New Carlton Thread: 5 wooden spoons this century (next worst is 2)

[manicpie]

He's had 40 touches a few times this year. Could be another Lipinski. But it's strange that he can't get a game in that under performing senior team. Be interesting to see if he does in the second half of the season. Because surely the selectors have to start swinging the axe

I agrre that he would be a good pick up but we have a few that can't get a game in the midfield already, so he would just be in the waiting in the wings like the others.

Paddy Dow has been killing it in the Carlton reserves and is out of contract at the end of the year. Maybe we should throw him a lifeline. Could be a good top up player.

Nah, he’s the same as McRae. Would rather look after our own

Never forget the flack we copped when we traded Treloar, Stephenson, Our first round pick (when coming 17th) and Grundy - over the past few years from this mob.

This proves a well run organisation prevails over one that pays in brown paper bags

Carlton really are not willing to do the hard work or make the hard decisions.

They want ready made players with high credentials and all the accolades, pay them big bucks on long contracts & that's their work done.

And then just have a rotation of coaches when the prima donna's don't deliver.

Voss will be sacked by the bye round.
And the cycle continues

I reckon close to half our best 22 are players from other clubs, mid-season draft etc - eg Mihocek, Noble, Crisp, Mitchell, Johnson etc - great effort boys - how many top ten picks - 3? - Pendlebury, Moore, Nick Daicos?

I love Carlton getting the prime time slots, means my weekend always starts with a smile. Here’s to an extension for Voss.

Carlton still have that mentality of buying success.

I sincerely hope the AFL is looking closely into their player contracts & salary cap... because I'd be super surprised something dodgy wasn't going on there as well.

Wouldn't that be icing on the cake?

 

[bunter]

How on earth could they have got it all so wrong?
it’s bloody fantastic and perfect timing.

 

[jmac70]

Carlton signed their bog average ruck to a four year deal. Says it all

 

[The Royal Sampler]

You know how you can tease a mate who has put on a few pounds for being fat but it’s a bit mean to tease the properly obese ones? Carlton may have just transitioned.

+ De Goey. Hoskin-Elliott was top ten at another club.

What makes this all the better, is the last time Carlton played finals, was by default because Essendon were suspended.

contempt for the salary cap is in their DNA

they are cursed until they return the '95 cup

No!

He has a starring role in the clown show

Just like Eagles are cursed for stealing the 2018 premiership..

Straight from the Sam Newman school of coaching. He used bang on about kicking it long all the time. Need to move it quickly into forward 50 but with precision and hit up a target. The Blues should look at Don Pyke. He's suppossed to be a bit of a forward whiz. Maybe he could sort out Carlton's dysfunctional forward line. Of course I hope that doesn't happen.

We need to petition the AFL to continue this practise.

Nothing better after a hard week than grabbing a pizza and watching Carlton spud it up on consecutive Friday nights
