This wave of momentum that our members have created has given us the perfect platform to launch our strategic plan, so on behalf of the Board, management, staff, players and coaches, it gives us great pleasure to provide our members with The Carlton Way, our five-year strategic plan that highlights our club’s vision, values, strategic priorities and key targets for the period 2019 – 2023.

I would urge all members to take the time to look over our plan. The essence of the document can essentially be boiled down into a couple of sentences;

We believe that a united football club, relentless in the pursuit of excellence, who hold ourselves and each other accountable, can achieve anything. This is the Carlton way.

multiple premierships by 2023 is gonna be big! exciting but certainly a challenge. Clearly they will be expecting a major step up this year.

The rest all seem to be pretty doable.

Is there any information about the Ikon Park masterplan? The image is intriguing.

I just wanted to point out this is exactly how a professional club should put out an unbiased statement:

As you would be aware, earlier this year we were fortunate to secure $15 million of funding from the federal government, in addition to the $20 million committed by the state government to the redevelopment of Ikon Park, cementing the facility as Melbourne’s home of AFLW.

Perfect.

To be fair it was all over their social media also

Would rather see them demolish the Gardiner Stand to the north, rather than demolish the useful Pratt Stand to the South

 

[B if i Know]

Headline on AFL Website - "Cups back on the agenda"
How predictable!

The Gardiner stand is still Heritage listed from memory.

That would be the Pratt (or Southern Stand).
Should have been demolished years ago.

Went well for Stalin and Mao. Not so well for their supporters.

I think from memory the GS is heritage listed.

One of our posters is heritage listed. Respect.

 

[cookie monster]

It is.

I'd just sooner that be the one that gets demolished. It's a wreck and an eyesore.

And you'd think the ground's capacity would be severely impaired should we lose the Pratt Stand

Beats our other five year plan which was to trade away our good players and stink it up on the field !!!

Kind of struggle with statements like this. On the one hand it’s nice to get confirmation that there is some sort of vision and statement about Carlton’s goals going forward. On the other hand this will be used as fodder every time we have a bad form slump over the next five years. Is it worth having it thrown back at us as an easy touchstone for the media if or when we’re still not winning a lot of games/developing say next year? Just so we can put out a nice glossy booklet/PR exercise (and to me that’s all this is) to get people excited before the season? I’m going to get sick of hearing about this much like the 100 points thing. Much like the ultra-defensive game plan thing. I automatically thought about the blueprint we realeased in ‘11? I don’t think these statements are a useful exercise but that’s just me.
