Because in my opinion, Carlton should delist hacks like Wiggins, Bannister and PRenda and take a punt on youth with Pick 36, 68 and maybe even a second Pick in the PSD. I just don't see the point in keeping hacks that cannot crack a game in the worst side in the competition.
Also maybe Jesse Smith could get a promotion which I wouldn't mind to see.
Some of the guff that has been posted here is laughable. Angwin needed help and so did Karl and Carlton did nothing? Perhaps we should be the Salvation Army or Red Cross. Run a soup kitchen or build a church or something.
They are here to play football. Angwin is a criminal and a liar and whatever else you care to name. He had his chances in Adelaide and at Carlton.
Karl did not have the desire to improve himslelf. It was a risk and it did not work.
It seems some people here have no idea about how list mangement works.
If you delist all the duds this year you will achieve the following things.
- Contracts will have to be paid out to quite a few players. Money is very tight. Why do you think new facilities, assistant coaches and the like are not being brought in?
You want the club to go to the AFL and ask for money? Lose Big 4 Status, blockbusters, become at risk for reloaction etc....Ron Evans and Vlad would just love that. To turn the screws a little more.
- Draftees get a 2 year contract. So that means if we delist every single fringe player and replace them with a draftee what are we going to do next year in the superdraft?
We wont be able to fill our list then in the better draft. Also have to pay out more contracts next year to craete spaces.
So according to some people here Carlton should become the
- Salvation Army
- Bankrupt and insolvent.
Nice work.
