Which side is closer to a premiership - Carlton or Essendon?

Both sides weighed down by the hubris of former glories earned when the competition wasn’t professional.

Both will probably win their next premiership before the Eagles do.

The competition is professional now? If you say so. I think it's one of the least professional and most corrupt competitions going around.

Essendon. Were going alright at 6-4 before all those injuries hit.

Carlton don't even know they need to rebuild soon.

I actually think there's some good young talent on the list and we recruited well in the off season i think. We managed to free up a nice bit of salary cap space by offloading people like Curnow, Silvagni and De Koning as well.

I just think Carlton aren't in as bad shape as some of the naysayers think we are. I think we might suprise more than a couple of people this year all going well hopefully.

Wouldn’t surprise if you do a Richmond 2016 to 2017 this year.

Win the lot when you least expect it.
