Carlton's Bought Premierships

[kolchak]

Carlton supporters think they were the 2nd best team of the 80s...



Carlton Players bought...(excuse the spelling)

Kernahan, Motley, Hunter, Pasasto, Fitspatrick, Doretich, Bradley, English and they tried to buy Platten. Hang on Dean was another. If I keeping thinking about this I reckon I could come up with 18. That's pretty much Carlton's best players.

Fact is Carlton buy and cheat there way to premierships, and they are doing it again with Judd.

Essendon and Hawthorn were clearly the best two teams in the 80s by a mile, okay Essendon didn't win enough games they needed to to make the GFs in the early 80s but Carlton didn't beat them, and Hawthorn and Essendon didn't buy and cheat there way to grand finals.

Carlton you are now feeling the karma of so much wrong doing in your tainted history, BTW your list now still sux.

no different to players using 'magic white powder' at half time which was taken in through the nose

Even back to Barassi.. always been a part of the Lygon St mafia mentality

Well, you know what they say about Hawthorn... I'm gonna re-read my posts before I submit them from here on end (end isnt too risque is it? as in back-end?).

No different to the squarks buying the likes of Platten from the SANFL either.
You have selective memory Kolchak.

BTW I couldn't care less if Tassie were the team of the 80's, Carlton still have won 7 more premierships that that inbred lot ..

You guys seem to have stupid/selective memory. As far as I recall, there was no salary cap back in the 60's anyway, so I hardly see how we chated getting Barassi from Melbourne either.

Also last time I checked, Carlton won 3 flags in the 80's 81/82 and 87, and the Bombers only 2 (84/85) so how does that make them a better team then Carlton in the 80's Kolchak ?
Hmm I always knew people from Tassie couldn't do proper maths, but this is ridiculous

Pasasto is not even close !!!! the Buzz, would've been easy enough for you ....If u watched footy pre 2000

It's the sheer amount of players they bought, I named probably your best starting 8 players in that lot.

Carlton you are now feeling the karma of so much wrong doing in your tainted history, BTW your list now still sux.

Given you are probably all o 15 years old and have no knowledge of VFL/AFL history i'll go easy on you to an extent.

For starters i'm pretty sure Des English and Peter Dean came from Carlton's country Victorian recruiting zone....clearly a case of cheating!

The interstate players you mention (Kernahan, Bradley, etc) were legally and fairly recruited to Carlton under the transfer rules of the day. Every other club in the VFL had a chance to get them, Carlton were just better organised and financially stronger, hence we got their signature.

It's funny you mention John Platten, yes Carlton tried to recruit him (heck he was the best rover in Australia at the time) but he said no and went Hawthorn instead in the same manner Carlton recruited their SA/WA players.

Prior to 1986 there was no salary cap and no national draft. Therefore to be able to recruit players from interstate you needed to arrange a transfer with their home club. If you identified talent early, as Carlton did with Kernahan at age 16, then you stood a good chance of getting your player.

Going by your logic the recruitment of the likes of Platten result in Hawthorn's 1980's and 1991 flag being tainted and Essendon's 1984/85 flag being tainted because they also got the likes of Van dar Haar and Leon Baker from interstate!

As for Judd, you do realise this was a trade? No different to you blokes trading for Croad, Hodge etc.

Please come back and post again when you actually have some idea of what you are talking about.

John Platten, Ben Allan, Darren Jarman, & who could forget that superstar STEVE MALAXOS!! They were all lured to Hawthorn the same way, as that was the system back then with no salary cap or draft. & im pretty sure Peter Dean & des English were from country Vic, so waht drugs are you on assclown!!??

 

[Jezza U Beauty]

You can throw Tony Hall in there too.

And we may have only been the 2nd most successful club of the 80s but we're still the equal most successful club of all time.

Now off ya shoot Kolchak.

Well then, my question still stands:

And???

There were no rules against that sort of thing in the 80s so what you're whinging about is beyond me.

Are you into any sports other than Aussie Rules? Cause the good clubs still buy players, lots of them. I just hope you dont follow any of those clubs cause it may prove to be a conflict of interest.

Seems like game, set and match to me. Well played blueheart.

 

[KingMullet]

You can add Peter Sartori to the list of bought players. Theres probably a few more who havent been mentioned as well.
