I’m not a massive Horse fan
But I also think you could put Leigh Matthews circa 2001 at the helm of this team and he’d net only marginally better results.
Only one premiership less than us in past 25 years, that’s pretty recent for me and 7 in total my lifetime. Heaps of others on here have seen more!Recent history
Sure you are Kingy.I’m always right mate
Well then by definition that's not tanking.Well it is that time of year. Finals are officially out of reach.
Time to bring out the perennial discussion....
I'm not saying deliberately lose.
Dear Mods/OP,
I have for years now, maybe even decades, held it over my many many Carlton supporting acquaintances that not only would The Bloods never tank, it wouldn't even be a discussion point.
I am sure I'm not the only one to have levelled such a boast.
To save us, please, please rename this thread.
I beg you.
Kind regards

None in my lifetime without a convicted criminal as President.
Or bankrolling purchase of players.
Carlton beat the Crows - not out of the question
Melbourne beat Saints - not out of the question
Swans stay within a kick of the Cats for 3/4's.. hit the front with 3 mins to go.. only to loose by a point because of an obvious umpiring mistake.
Swans loose 102 - 101
very close to pick two!
Who needs to tank
2001 - p1 - HodgeThey're a criminal enterprise and it sickens me to see so many so easily succumb to that lure of low hanging fruit despite the fact that high draft picks almost never lead to premierships.
Look what happened to the last teams to tank. Carlton and Melbourne. They have been in the doldrums for years. You are right it creates the wrong atmosphere at a club^^^^^THIS ^^^^^
I don't like tanking, don't believe it has ever worked and it sends the wrong message to the fans and members. I would also assume it creates a bad mindset for the younger players at the club that it's okay to lose. Personally I want to see the boys go their hardest for the next five weeks, create some havoc amongst the top 8 teams we have yet to play.
Having said that I agree that Bud should have the rest of the year off and we are able then to have a huge celebration for his 300th first game back at the SCG in 2020 - hopefully against Hawthorn because that would be karma!
2001 - p1 - Hodge
2004 - p2 - Roughead
- p5 - Franklin
- p7 - Jordan Lewis
2005 - p14 - Birchall
2007 - p12 - Rioli
