The Tank

[Bosun]

Ok am I the only here now getting a little frustrated that it is being suggested on a few of the main boards the we tanked for 3 years instead of the one??

Whenever said poster(s) is asked to explain, so were Carlton shit or did we tank for these 3 years there is never a damn explanation?? Anyone else get pissed off with this considering its on the main boards? (Bay 13 I dont really care about)

Honestly, who really cares what other supporters think?

You only tanked the last yr to get Judd and kruz, Anyone that says otherwise is a just a jealous f***.

But now thanks to your club everyone who is shit gets accused of tanking.

 

[Faz 2000]

The mental giants that accuse us of tanking for Judd fail to mention that we lost our last game well before Judd announced he was interested in coming home.

We're relevant again, and those supporters of crap teams that haven't made hay while we've sucked are getting their licks in now before we're better than them.

Typical nuffy response.

Carlton have never tanked. Carlton were truly bad for an extended period.

If only we'd been good enough to pick and choose when won.

The stupidity of people saying Carlton tanked is truly amazing.

MUCH more likely to be teams who are very good one year then very good the next. Melbourne are the prime example. Collingwood 2005. West Coast this year.

Stick that up your shamrock Jim "the stain" Stynes.

'Tanked' implies we could've actually won if we'd wanted to. That only occurred last year.

And which round was that? This is old ground. Every single move, every surgery booked, every young player picked can be and has been fully justified.

Or are you going on Liberatore's equivocal comments?

Speaking from personal experience, you and your tankers?

who cares if we did tank anyway... it's not like we we're doing it for money or anything, just exploiting the system, the only harm i see is that we've made the opposing team think they're better than they really are... but i reckon any other team in our position would have done the same, if not considered it anyway.... the AFL probably needs to adjust the drafting system somehow if it wants to get rid of this tank speculation

Yep speaking from exeprience. Deep down you kinda hope they are tanking as you dont want to believe they are just that shit.

Yet 12 months ago, you couldn't give a shit and were happy to dish it out.

Now it's our turn.

exactly. those supporters are only trying to get a response so why give them what they want? As far as i am concerned we haven't tanked for even one season and if ever i found out that they did i would be ashamed of CFC.

Just my personal opinion, based on nothing. Just as baseless and pointless as most opinions on the subject. I'm sure we could all find 'evidence' based on whatever viewpoint we want to support.

 

[celtic_pride]

LOL @ Collingwood ferals haveing a go at Carlton those flogs obviously forget how they got Dale 'Thomas the Tank' Engine

 

[R1KSTA]

to be honest who really gives a crap about what the other supporters think, they are just jelous we got Juddy and they don't..

lets just forget the past few years and look onto the bright and exciting future we have for our club...

Blues in 2011

We tanked last season, we did exactly the right thing. One extra win in 2007 would have been silly, and as long as the current rules stand, they will be exploited by clubs. The Rules need to be changed.

I bet the Dee's regret winning last season in Round 22. They could have had the first two picks in this seasons draft. Imagine the positive hype that would have generated for the Dee's.

They could have revitalized their club like we have ours this season.

The Demons winning in round 22, was just plain stupid !!

Yeah but realistically someone had to.

Publically announced. You can pretty well gamble that your administration knew half way through the season!!! Also, yes, we are jealous of your getting Judd....that's why you stand so little chance of getting Kerr.

As did what's left of yours. Consequently you set out to cripple him. And don't give me any shit about CJ saying he was right to play. Any medic with integrity would have stepped in and stopped what everyone else could see was plainly wrong.

We 100% tanked last year for that I have no doubt

Yep, no sympathy for them what so ever. They deserve all the crap they get.

Kerr will be at Carlton BOOKMARK this

as Carlton supporters we still argue and debate between ourselves as to weather we tanked last year or any other year, our own team and we dont know for sure, how the f-ck can anyone say yes we or you did, are west coast port and the dee's tanking, can anyone tell me with evidence yes they are. No you can not, opinions only no evidence, so in summing up who gives a shit, winning is what counts.

 

[Murph_The_Smurf]

how can someone say we were crap for 2 years and then we tanked the last ?? if your crap you cannot possibly do anything else to ensure you loose ... they're just jealous , and by they're i mean all those pieces of sH** that barrak for any other club other then the navy blue.

Tanking test

Port - Would 'The chad' and Salopek be in cotton wool until 09 if they were in the finals race. M Williams said ' once they lost to the tigers the focus become 09' if that is not tanking I do not know what is.

WC - They maynot be tanking as I am surprised they continue to play Cox

Dees - 100% are trying

Blues - 100% tanked

Pies - invented the tank 'Thomas tank' was the original tanking year
