Respect Our First Round Draft Pics

[Realtrublu]

It occurred to me to start a discussion in which supporters have an opportunity to thoughfully consider the contribution that our first and second round draft pics have made to a team and to a club whose destiny they have never really been able to effectively control. A destiny that was in the hands of administrators, coaches and Boards who, lets be frank, have made many woeful strategic decisions since the watershed grand final victory in 1995.

Instead of bagging Gibbs, Murphy, Kreuzer et al think for a moment what they have lost by not being selected by a team like Sydney, the Bulldogs or North, to name a few, who have been far more successful on the field than Carlton since 2000.

Why do you think Betts and Waite wanted to leave? It is obvious that both are doing much better at their new clubs.

So stop bagging our talented players. Show some gratitude!!!

I'd like to make a public appreciation to our first round draft pick from 2010.

I can think of any number of threads this could have gone into, and any number of agendas it will provoke.
