If you’re at 8-2 it means you’re in top of the ladder form. The fact that that is the bare minimum for us from other supporters is just stupid

Right. This poster is aware that the H&A season doesn’t go for just 10 weeks though, right?

Geelong supporter so I don’t think they care until September.

Surely this thread gets renamed after our Carlton supporting buddies.

Not sure I can recall a team being so highly pumped in an off season as them, by supporters, ex players and the media.

Who are they really missing off their best 22? Martin- glorified cat
Marchbank- solid defender
Curnow- perennially injured forward

I guess you can add Fisher and Silvagni in there but if you're counting them as best 22 you may as well fold.

Thank you, Carlton fans, for promising confidence, enthusiasm and performance, and delivering underwhelming shitness every year for the best part of a decade

The saints v tigers post-match thread on the saints board opens with a moderator telling everyone they'll be thread-banned for excessive criticism or negativy after their 84 point loss followed by a heap of you wot mate posts. There's a thesis above it now explaining his position. The whole thread is pure poetry.

I saw/ read that. Holy Crap What a Cluster*!

That or St Kilda or Essendon.

Legends

In all seriousness, if this was to be the way this played out and Cripps wanted to leave and Merrett wanted to come here.

I'd ask Cripps to hold off for a bit in lodging Fremantle's bid.. So we can control the situation
Lodge Merrett's bid first thing and find out what Essendon's move is, take compo pick or match..

• But if they did match not sure I'd continue to pursue him, not worth 2 x firsts (Probably top 10's 2021 Carlton & Freo) they'd want

Either way I'd make Fremantle trade for Cripps, his a beast, a top 3 player in the comp when fit and our Captain ffs..

• I'd ask Cerra & 2021 & 2022 Firsts / Cripps & 2021 Seconds - would probably add 2022 Second if needed (got to be realistic)

It would be sad to lose Cripps and I'd prefer just to keep him, but could set our club up for a long time..

Out - Cripps, 2021 & 2022 second rounders
In - Merrett (Possible), Cerra, 2021 & 2022 first rounders

Would give us 2 x First rounders in 2021 & 2022 to further trade or draft with

The Bluemour thread really is the gift that keeps on giving... Don't know where to begin with this one.

Old mate rates Cripps a top 3 player in the league? I wouldn’t have him in my 10 best best mids or top 20 players in the league.

And Cripps and a couple of future seconds for Cerra and two firsts....?

******* hell, that would be the biggest trade heist of all time if they pulled that off!

 

[Topkent]

Apparently Cripps is worth more than peak Judd

 

[Grimesy87]

(got to be realistic)

This was probably the highlight in my opinion.

Just wondering where paddy dow for a first rounder also fits in here?

To be fair, Judd had only won a Brownlow, a Norm Smith, an MVP, two B&F's, two AA's and captained a premiership when he requested to leave WCE. That hardly stacks up with a biased supporter's "top 3 player in the comp" designation

I wonder who the other 2 are?

I can only assume Harry McKay and Liam Jones?

Oliver would have been if the trade for Paddy Dow had gone through and Carlton had a chance to wash the 'Melbourne' off him

TBF if we won 3 out of the last 4 we'd be tossers too.

they were tossers before they won anything though

After they won their first GF, I was like * these campaigners are what we expected the Collingwood supporters to be like when they won a premiership

Only worse

They have zero respect for Nate, the filthy campaigners.

Part of the reason I wanted Adelaide to win.

Actually, if Adelaide did win, I wouldn't hear the end of it from my dad.

So its a lose-lose/can't win for losing scenario, personally.

 

[schmuttt]

00Stinger the bloke on the main board saying Steele and Dunkley are the two best mids in the game right now.

You gotta have a little grace, regardless of how successful you are. Don't turn into a twat, that's the secret. I am fully prepared to be everyone's barometer in this when we win our next premiership.

* that. If/when we pull it off I’m pulling a PG, getting outrageously drunk on Bin 389 and posting repeatedly on the MB.

Definitely.

I might just do that anyway
