We are badly hampered by the fact that the NBs don't seem to be able to recruit/keep quality mature players. The non-Carlton part of the NB list seems to be full of try-hards and journeymen that give minimal quality support to the younger Blues who travel through there. You only need to look at what Hawthorn does with Box Hill (eg bringing in Deledio this year) which seems to fast-track development of their younger brigade.
If Carlton's $$ books are now looking so rosy, perhaps we could invest a few bucks at Cramer St. so we can get some better returns on the mid-range young players who come to our club and then leave after two years with little to show for it.

This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?
