Do Carlton need to undertake a list rebuild?

[memes_about_carlton]

Yes, I can picture a 35 year old Cripps as an elite, pacy ball using half forward flanker...

Nice

I've been bored so I made a hypothetical Carlton best 22 for 2030

FB: L.Cowan (25), J.Weitering (32), B.Kemp (29)
HB: M.Carroll (24), H.O’Farrell (24), H.Dean (22)
C: O.Hollands (26), S.Walsh (30), L.Camporeale (24)
FL: M.Pittonet (34), J.Smith (23), C.Walker (22)
HF: A.Moir (20), H.O’Keefe (25), P.Cripps (35)
FF: J.Motlop (26), H.McKay (32), C.Durdin (28)

INT: C.Lord (25), A.Cerra (30), B.Camporeale (24), W.White (26)

Traded: C.Curnow, J.Silvagni, T.De Koning, B.Acres

Retired: N.Newman, Z.Williams, N.Haynes, M.McGovern, S.Docherty, E.Hollands, G.Hewwett, A.Saad

Thoughts? Did not know who to put for ruckman, and put Cripps more as a forward

If Motlop is still on the list in 2026 let alone 2030 then just put a bullet in me.

But I don't mind it. Going to be quite a few changes to that group in the next 5 years but a bit hard to protect that far down the track.

Pretty optimistic on the Campo boys, wouldn't be penciling them in as league footballers just yet.

With a coach change they’ll likely decline and them have to start a rebuild.

It would be the funniest thing ever if Carlton got Hinkley. Unfortunately they aren't that stupid.
Carton need to build the bottom of their list not the top end. They've started that process getting rid of high paid guys who have offered little. Still got a couple to go.

I hear that Carlton are interested in getting Hinkley as a Senior Assistant because he works well with Voss. If only they got Chad Cornes too it would bring the Band back together.

Waaaaaaaaatttt??

But the Carlton faithful couldn't stop high fiving and backslapping each other (plus who knows what else)and fist pumping themselves that would make even dodoro blush ,after apparently “stealing” him from under freos noses by drafting him with a very early and valuable 2nd rounder in a stacked 2021 draft.

It was another “masterstroke “ by the blues recruiting team over Freo after snaring the leagues next young midfield superstar in Cerra.

So what’s happened m8?.

Why all of sudden so glum on such a prize??!!

Its genuinely funny how much Freo fans hate us. The Pies and Dons its a mutual hatred, Blues fans barely give Freo a thought and u nuffies are hanging onto the dream of our implosion more than you do trying to actually win a flag for once in your existence.

Not all of us. I like Carlton. Have done since Kenny Hunter, Blackwell and Ralphy (RIP) moved over there in the early 80s

Same in reverse. Freo one of the few opposition teams I like. No real offensive players. Coach pretty 'down the line'.

This got me thinking when was the last flag Carlton won - 1995
When did freo play their 1st season - 1995

 

[Cleric]

Something needs to change.
I could see them rebound with a new coach next year if that happens. Im not sure they have the talent to win a flag or go deep into finals, but they are better than their ladder position says.

I believe Chad can coach but he got Hinkleyfied and ended up spending most of his time in the gym with Charlie.

Hinkley is the disease that has no cure.

It’ll be a different team next year, expect they’ll trade out a few in the off season

Carlton will be fine in a couple years if they don't shit the bed. 2 x father/sons last year 2 more this year coming, a top 3 pick last year and another 2 x top 10 coming this year. A couple years and they'll be coming strong unless they panic.

They have a few to move on though, I reckon I could find 15 to delist but no point doing it unless you can find better.

Big assumption there lol

Kenny is the only man in the AFL to truly expose Mitchell's melts for what they are.

Get the man in!

I hear Carlton are interested in the Services of both Bald Men in the GIF.

Chris Davies and Ken Hinkley = Package Deal.

Vossy, Kern and Davies. Oh and that red haired kenty Greeves or something.

All star line up!

Being an unsuccessful club there’s not many we can shit on.
Blues being the shittest club this century affords us this Luxury.
Happy Rebuild to you

Based on the new CEO's comments earlier today we're definitely not planning on rebuilding lol
