Who have you been most wrong about?

[Hairydawg]

Mine was IQ. I saw him in a practice match in Perth and he didn’t look the size or even the type.

Murphy, start of 2022, I was convinced he was done. Just couldn't stay on the park and was convinced he would be delisted.

 

[Pleasedontfail11]

Ben Johnson thought he was Stephen Patterson mark 2.

Murphy, start of 2022, I was convinced he was done. Just couldn't stay on the park and was convinced he would be delisted.

I would have happily delisted Cox and Murphy after 2021 if I were in charge. Fortunately I am not.

Is Hill in our best side? Have concerns over his impact in big games

. Didn't impress me at all in his first couple of years and gave away 50 m penalties too often.

And cox only scraped in at the last moment. Reckon if Lynch stayed, Cox would not given they only gave him a contract very very late in the piece. Amazing what a couple years does and a new coach.

 

[Gaspard]

Mine is the ultimate. When I first saw him, I watched Pendlebury get caught from behind a couple of times and said he was too slow and wouldn't make it. I also watched Dane Swan

in his early days on the back line and didn't think he was good enough either. I don't think anyone can top those as bad judgements. I am much slower to decide these days.

 

[TradeDraft]

Probably Josh Daicos. Didn't impress me at all in his first couple of years and gave away 50 m penalties too often.

I agree his 1st 2-3 Seasons I had some Real Doubt about. Had Good Skills but Barley Touched the Ball

 

[Vicky Park]

Also, I said this in July

I think I may have favoured Ginni over Bobby at that stage of the season.

 

[CheckerTrade666]

I’m sure this isn’t an outrageous Take but I was convinced Cox was completely Finished at the End of 2021. Was 30 years old and was surely not gonna improve, DC had taken his place in the side and we had a young rebuilding list so I was almost certain he was gone.

The way he has revived his career and got a Premership medal is amazing, I think Fly is the only man that could’ve transformed his career.

 

[themidlandmaster]

Bringing back Beams was worth it to get genuine A Grade talent after falling so short in the 2018 Granny (and getting IQ as an NGA reducing the cost).

Thought his kicking wasn't up to the mark, and that his handballs were poorly timed and got teammates into pressure.
But he worked on his game and improved

 

[legendstatus]

Probably Josh Daicos. Didn't impress me at all in his first couple of years and gave away 50 m penalties too often.

Have to agree, I thought body wise and size he had no hope.

 

[jimmy35]

I grew up with Carlton supporting parents in the late 1960’s and the horror of 1970 and 79 and 81.

I decided to keep them.

 

[Reg Grundy35]

McCreery - first few games all I saw was speed and low possies. I said some stupid things. Now I worship him - i want another 5 of him

 

[caloschwaby]

Also, I said this in July

Are there still any concerns?

 

[manicpie]

Fat Jesus being really fat

 

[Phil Inn]

On the optimism side, I really thought Shaz was going to be a gun.

On the pessimism side, I thought Darcy Moore

would never make it as his body would break down early. Very thankful to have been well wrong with that one.

 

[Corn Cobbers]

I would have happily delisted Cox and Murphy after 2021 if I were in charge. Fortunately I am not.

I would have kept those two but delisted Pendles, Sidey and WHE

for not going in hard enough

My mate constantly reminded me of that.

 

[Fat Jesus]

Fat Jesus being really fat

Be Have you.

 

[Fat Jesus]

All of my exes.
Not wrong just yet with current wifey.

Probably James Manson.
Unco big man. Goofy.
Not a star but ended up a premiership player.
I'm rarely wrong about players although I wait until a little senior footy before commenting.
Unless your name is Edward or Oleg that is.
I could see what WHE was offering when many here were putting him down.
