Just thinking back over the last 8 or 9 years and recalling the thrashings we got every season from Hawthorn and other top sides.
Year in, year out we saw players like Hodge, Gunston, Breust, Mitchell etc, take us apart with their foot skills and ability to control the ball. In those years, with monotonous regularity we would keep turning the ball over, even when not under pressure.
I assumed with the rebuild that Bolton and SOS in their selection criteria with early picks would automatically include recruiting players with foot skills.
Yet, who have we recruited that has the skills to give us a winning forward line?
Richmond last night just continued our humiliation. Why is it that our recruiters cannot see what every Carlton supporter can see is needed?
As I've said before, it wouldn't matter who is coach. There is something so wrong with our club that will ensure we stay close to the bottom for years.
