What's wrong with Carlton?

[blue gunslinger]

at least we are not still paying Fev

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Carlton's problems:

1. They rely too much on Judd
2. Judd isn't even that good
3. They consider themselves a top 4 side but can't finish top 4
4. Jamison was NOT in AA form before injury, no matter how many times you want to say it.
5. Thornton is not a swingman, he is a hack
6. They traded away their best big man in O'hAilpin (at least he had heart)
7. Warnock can't kick clutch goals from 10m out.
8. Brock McLean
9. Playing all their top draft picks off the half back flank.
10. Yarran is a poor man's Rioli
11. When Waite does something good (e.g. strong mark) it is followed immediately by something bad (e.g. out on the full, kicking into the man on the mark, getting suspended, giving away a free kick or yelling at an umpire)
12. Brock McLean
13. Brett Ratten as coach. You can't turn a tanking coach into a premiership one.
14. Fevola did to Carlton what Carey did to North.
15. Murphy has already peaked
16. They think Goddard will be heading across next year. He's not even that good.
17. Very flimsy forward line.
18. Their so-called A grade midfield has 2 good players. That's it.
19. Don't try and tell me Kade Simpson is a good footballer. Look at him, just look at him. That is NOT a footballer, that is some dude from the crowd who turned up to watch training and was given a footy jumper cos they were low on numbers.
20. Can't beat Hawthorn to save themselves.
21. Still sooking about Fev not getting his 100th against the hawks
22. Don't know how to select a decent player with pick 1 (have had a few goes at it!!!)
23. They think Robinson is tough. Sure, if he can find someone the size of 'Jeffy" Garlett on the opposition side he'll try and crunch the guy, but anyone larger than that and Robinson turns to water.
24. Can't even win a pre-season match, how are they going to win a real one?
25. Their spine: Henderson, Waite, Judd, Thornton, Jamison. Shit.
26. The fans spent a year saying how good Bower was when he was out injured, but at the end of the season they tried to offload him and NO other clubs were even slightly interested.
27. Andrew Walker won't repeat that season again.
28. Armfield looks like a damn idiot.


Will come back later with the rest.

That's true, that is something. You might still be paying for him, but you're not paying him. That's a start. However it's probably like saying, "The boat is 99% full of water and we're sinking, but at least it's not 100% full."

So, peashooter, now that you're in the thread, what do you think is wrong with Carlton?

You're a generous man, thank you. I am sure the Carlton folk are grateful for your help, well done.

weak knees obviously-laidler should be ashamed he did not prepare his body better and should amputate at the neck this instant

Reported post - can't bag out a player for injuries.

you forgot to mention brock mclean

 

[Baldur]

Wrong question. The list is way too long. Should have asked what is right with Carlton?

Have not been caught cheating in the last couple of years
Deluded fans continue to purchase memberships
Only wear the powerpuff light blue jersery a couple of times a year
Unlike Norf, will survive for the next decade at least
Judd is immune to being suspended for eye gouging
AFL will continue to gift them easy points in round one
Fev does not play for them anymore
Australia is full of rich corporate crims

no naked photos holding their pathetic manhoods must be a +ve

True. They would have to have girlfriends to have insane females steal their naked photos. Horses do not count, even Mrs Ed.

 

[Reardo]

Wow!! Can't believe nobody has mentioned this clown.*







*Not a funny clown, he's a sad clown.

 

[Big_Birdy]

Carlton has had no direction since the Moran's got blown away. They really were the heart and soul of the club.

Which in itself, is very disturbing.

Here's a historical clue.

[Lord Rod]

Winning a final last year was the high point of this current Carltank squad.
Now that it's worth tanking again, I'd say a major rebuild is on the cards..

yeah-no school uniform spoils it for you I guess

wow - you watched Underbelly

 

[Franc de Borges]

We've already clocked this competition twice with the worst squad in living memory.

Carlton is trolling all of you with this limp form.

No team has won both comps for 12 years.

Oh you think this is just in reference to the NAB Cup?

 

[Starburns_]

Their already rubbish culture was irreparably damaged when they traded away their talented, young KPF who would much rather have stayed for a money-hungry mercenary.

Is that wrestling or something? You watch that shit? Assuming you're a grown man, you should be facepalming yourself.

Ummm you look up facepalm gifs and you find this and many more. Looked good, wrestler= pretender. Carltank = pretender. A match made in heaven.

For the record, Geelong won the NAB and premiership in 2009 (Not long after the AFL scrapped the 1mil bonus IIRC).

Carry on.

 

[Old Skool]

They ****ed up when they traded Judd in and traded Fevola out when he wasn't at the top of his market price.

6 clubs will fly past them in the next 3 years.

Half a rebuild is no rebuild at all.
