BB gifted kids games, and where did that get us?
The big question is why are so many of our talented kids failing, player development?
I don't think the kids are failing per se, I think the system we use to develop them is rubbish. Our conversion rate of turning draftees into good, solid footballers must be one of the worst (if not the worst) in the competition.
I would have thought that when you put a ground-up rebuild in place, the one element that is non-negotiable is a development process that delivers the goods. Yet here we are, 4-5 years on, and it seems clear that the process we have used is no good.
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?
