What's wrong with Carlton?

[blue gunslinger]

Nope, that's not what I am saying.

I am saying that I am worried about your club, because of your lack of success, even with all the "talent" at your disposal.

Tell me, blues_10, why do you think your club has failed to deliver thus far, even though it's been gifted draft picks, Judd, etc?

So you're happy with the club's "progression" since tanking for draft picks?

You're happy with Gibbs, the #1 draft pick half back flanker?

You're happy with Kreuzer, once "best young ruckman in the country", now 3rd string and looking to be Kosi'd into a forward pocket?

You're happy with Chris Judd, his complete inability to hit a target by foot, and his eye gouging?

And, most of all, you're happy with not making it past week 2 of the finals, after many years of trying, long after Operation Tanksforthepicks was completed?

My, my... this really is a case of Carltholm Syndrome in full effect. They've convinced you, Peashooter, as well as all the other Carlton folk, that what they've done so far is good. That their results are acceptable.

Get yourself to a therapist, Peashooter, you're fully in the grips of Carltholm syndrome.

A lot of Carlton people are beginning to realise that Gibbs is nothing but a good ordinary player.

I am.

Gibbs for the 2012 Brownlow. You'll see flog.

Yep the Brownlow is in the bag

Awesome, moral Brownlow in the bag!

Gibbs to come out for the 2012 Brownlow. You'll see flog.

You forgot a couple of key words in there. Fixed it pally.

 

[Baldur]

Awesome, moral Brownlow in the bag!

Any Brownlow “won” (bribed) by Carltank is not moral.

This guy won some Moral Brownlow’s.

Not a single one of them in a year when he split open a player with a cowardly elbow to the face. In fact unlike Judd he never did that.

So Moral Brownlow

Maybe their new co-captain can help them out?

 

[Monkey King]

Why are Carlton struggling so badly? Is there anything we can do to help?

I know; how about gifting Carlton a first round pick and first round KPP in a "trade" for a no-hoper that's going to discredit your coach, make your admin look amateurish, divide your playing list and help send your club down the bottom of the ladder.

Oh hang on ...

Yeah that's right, we've already done that. The Lions, generous in spirit, gave you Lachie Henderson and Lucas. We TRIED to get you guys a premiership, but EVEN with that AND all the draft picks.... nothing past week 2 of the finals.

Thanks for pointing that out, Monkey King, it strengthens the Carltholm case.

How can success have so hugely avoided you guys, given all that, do you think, Monkey King?

Fremantle
Melbourne
Richmond
North
Gold Coast
GWS

Collingwood and Hawthorn will still be better. West Coast will also be better.

Carlton will be fighting for an outside chance with other short term fix clubs, like Sydney, for the last spot in the top 8, before diving for another top up.

Tell him hes dreamin ----- STEMHEAD!!

Did that, but Carltank so crap that it did not work

Pfft! It's St Kilda's chances that have passed them by, not Carlton's. You know it's the truth too. You blokes tanked for picks, stole other clubs players and had Brian Waldron work his magic to fit it all under the salary cap; and then, in typical StKilda style, you stiffed a legendary coach and handed it all over to a mates-rater with no experience or credentials and a budget fitness crew. Seriously, your club crack me up; can't win a single flag, even when it's all been put there in front of them.

Is this why you have so much offended over the Blues now? Because in the time we were down you did absolutely nothing! Hahaha!

 

[Duritz]

Pfft! It's St Kilda's chances that have passed them by, not Carlton's. You know it's the truth too.

I figure the Blues have got two years to win a flag. By then Juddas will be past it and if you haven't won one with him then you're not going to suddenly improve post him. You've got two more years to prove you're not a total, utter, bulldods'esque failure.

 

[longdaveyjetta]

this clearly was the main problem. the cheating issue has been well discussed. the issue of lack of hard work hasnt. look at the last 5 years. flags won by teams who simply recruited well, picked the good apples from the bag, rather than just rely on buying the best apples, or so they thought. as carlton have never had to work, they cant adjust to the modern world. forever to remain irrelevant. and a well deserved position too.



save the yawn for this post. make him mod and its all 'just short of a good length' 50 over game rubbish. theres no more rearing bouncers, or wicked googlies. take the role off shawt and give it to duritz - pleeeeeez.

Agreed, VJ, Shawt, don't stop bowling bouncers man.....And don't do a trevor Chappell like Durex...
