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

[TakingThePies]

Time and time again, Carlton get a new coach it's always lollypops and rainbows.. "We'll win a flag before Collingwood" ect.

1-2 years in they ask for the coaches sacked, never met a more delusional bunch.

They were spoilt in the 70’s & 80’s…thought it would continue forever.

So Clarkson has said he'd coach a Tasmanian team if their was one?

Hahaha I guess he'd rather coach a club that doesn't exist yet over coaching Carlton.

 

[Visions]

All we need now is for the bomb outs to fail in their now emerging window, enough for us to take 16 before the two closest enemies.

They’re already both on 16? Don’t you mean 17?

I definitely read him wanting to go help them get a team foundation sorted, but unsure if that involved coaching them a la Kevin Sheedy at GWS

What I meant was we get to 16 before they get to 17, at that point, given we're ahead in any other metric re finals and wins in general we'll be undisputed.

Also got a few chasing us now. Hawt, Rich and possibly Melb could all be on 13.

I think David Noble will be Tasmania's first coach.

Yes they are, and that's the danger, all of them closer to their next than us.

Easy opportunity for Carlton now. Relocate to Hobart and change their name and logo.... and they have got their man

I was watching all those happy Melbourne fans and players celebrating last night

Was my dark heart moved ?

Of course

Joy filled me that the karma bus was still reversing over Carlton

I've got plenty of thoughts for St Kilda, none can be repeated on a family forum.

My thoughts exactly.

Not a great post tbh. might want to delete

ReallY?
Similar posts on the Carlton coaching thread, hence the "Apparently".
If you knew him you would know he was an irreverent bastard and would more than likely say the same himself.

So no. I won't be deleting.

Brilliant thread name change again.

As OP, I endorse the above post

This thread is not intended as a safe space against death nor a venue for black&white on black&white violence

Death does not spare comments about John Dorman, Cardboard Dick, George Harris et al

I wish John Dorman's family fond memories of their father

John Dorman remains a perpetrator of the '95 premiership cup theft

Onward

When you say 'go past them' that'd mean we're playing finals in two years time.

While that is possible, that'd be some sort meteoric rise, and development like the comp has never seen before. Not to mention a lineal trajectory upward, which is very rare.

That would also entail some drop off from the blose.

We went from spooners in 76 to grand finalista in 77, with a change of coach and minimal player turnover. It can be done.

Yes from 12th to 2nd, much harder these days, even though we did it from 13th recently.

Now we're not anywhere that 13th place.

It can be done, but the development (coz we've cornered ourselves out of any decent trade ins) would be like no one has ever witnessed before. Plus all the other planets aligning.

We played finals the previous three years and most of the core of those teams is still in place. I think this year could very easily be a one year slump, like many teams have had over the years. Dees have gone: 4th, 17th, 9th, 1st.

Yes that's true but our list imbalance is not something the dees have had like we've got now, not to mention our current cap squeeze.

So yeah development is the only thing up our sleeve, we don't have much in the options of trading in. I'm not suggesting it's impossible but IF we do make a rise back to finals in a year or two that'll be on development and tons of luck (like injuries) and we know Collingwood and luck is like oil and water.

This is the hate Carlton thread, take that to the relevant thread

It has indeed been done before. Have a look who was 17th in 2019.

Richmond went from 13th to 3 flags in 4 seasons as well.
