In 1964, our Centenary year, we finished 10th. It was the lowest our club had ever been.
In 1965, they went and got Barrasi, and in 68, we won the flag. And in 70, and 72 etc.
All of this was pre draft and salary cap, as was buying in Kernahan, Bradley, Motley and Dorotich in the one year.
It's infinitely more difficult now, at best you can recruit three good footballers a year and we've continually failed to do even that.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.
