Round 8 Preview - Carlton v Geelong
I'm not looking forward to this, it will be ugly.
As for Watson he's a spud, another first round draft pick up in smoke, we could give him a run of 15 games straight and he'd still be a spud.
And as for our abysmal recruiting the woes continue, the man we traded pick 7 for can't get a game in one of the weakest Carlton teams in living memory and our "ready to go" first rounder is also in the VFL.
Cripps is the only pick we've got right in the last 4 or 5 years, is it any wonder we can't win games?
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

Menzel and Yarran were good picks. The rest have been disgraceful.
2017-16th
2018-Wooden Spoon
2019-16th
2020-dare to dream? 11th is better than last I suppose
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time

Well you can't really say that as he hasn't even played five straight has he?
Ignorance is bliss.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

The jury's out on Menzel in my opinion, he shows flashes but goes missing, Yarran is a star but it's not easy to stuff up pick 6 even for the CFC.
When was the last time we got even a decent player in the second, third or fourth round?
It's been that bad you get to thinking someone inside the club is sabotaging us.

He can't even fire up in the VFL Carrots, it's a bitter pill to swallow that we've blown another first rounder but he's a spud mate.
People were waiting for Hampson to explode on the scene as well, he's another spud.

Hampson... It's not often a player leaves us and goes backwards...
Let’s go BIG !
Carrazzo out, Warnock in.

Please, can someone explain to me why Warnock would replace Carrazzo? Please.

Nick Graham... stop flirting with the coach's wife.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

With Warnock in, Casboult is able to play FF for the entire game - first time this is going to happen, which is positive. Pity we don't have a CHB tonight.


Cannot believe that once again this lot have brought in Warnock as a late replacement, it hasn't worked yet so why persist? This club is one more stupid decision away from loosing me forever, I now hate watching them and I have bled blue since 1969...
I was there, Blight missed!!!

Yep
He's going to play a run-with role on Selwood ;D
Sacrifice his own game

No.... JD's probably got it right in terms of roles.
Not sure we'll see anything too different though.
