2021 Non-Crows AFL Discussion Part 1: we can have lots of fun!

[Bay62]

Carlton are like the Brisbane Heat. Every year it's going to be their year until the season gets underway.

It’s only the matches that stand between them and glory

 

[cm_perfect]

Do we hate Carlton more than Port now?

That’s a flat NO

So Carlton spat the dummy and didn't stick around for the Richard Pratt Trophy presentation, which is done in aid of prostate cancer and has been running for 11 years

 

[BronCrow]

What does it matter to you really what we wear really? What does it take away from the Crows out of interest? or is it the olde Adelaide 'out of spite mentality'? Like Leigh Whicker /SANFL and Bradman....

Funny how it mattered to all of you when we wanted to wear the SOO guernsey.

Apparently its normally done in the winners rooms, but due to covid it couldn’t be done in the rooms.

 

[GROTTO]

Taken from the Main Board, but it is very very damning about Carlton as a football club.

Their results in the last 20 years:

2001 - 5th (semi final)
2002 - 16th (wooden spoon)
2003 - 15th
2004 - 11th
2005 - 16th (wooden spoon)
2006 - 16th (wooden spoon)
2007 - 15th
2008 - 11th
2009 - 7th (elimination final)
2010 - 8th (elimination final)

2011 - 5th (semi final)
2012 - 10th
2013 - 8th (semi final)
2014 - 13th
2015 - 18th (wooden spoon)
2016 - 14th
2017 - 16th
2018 - 18th (wooden spoon)
2019 - 16th
2020 - 11th


I count about ~5 rebullds during this period.

CarLOLton.

Anyone else absolutely love seeing carlton fail.

 

[GROTTO]

2013 - 8th (semi final)

Was this also by default because of the Dons drugs saga?

 

[blitzen666]

Cripps and i have thought this for a while now is the most overrated player in the game. Being OOC end of year brings up the question what is he really worth?

Even then, Ratts only coached 6 games in 2007. Look how he's gone at the Saints. Ratts is a damn good coach and Carlton ****ed him over to pay Mick the cash and it's come back to bite them on the arse big time.

This was their best comedy act over the journey.

Kane Cornes brought it up a friday or so ago on the captains run about Cripps finishing 9th in the BnF in an average year for them.
Did he miss a heap of games?

No but only because their supporters on big footy are so gracious and respectful..

I dunno...this one was pretty good too:

Possibly so but some club will shell out a long contract for him

 

[GROTTO]

Freo, 100% will, they need to.

 

[MarcusP2]

Yes so they haven't qualified on their own merits since 2011.

I heard Stephen Kernahan speak about the Mick appointment at a Bay luncheon a few years back. He started by saying that contrary to what’s been reported they didn’t bring him in to try to win a premiership - and then went on to effectively say that’s why he was brought in.

But look, he brought Daisy with him so what more could a club want??

 

[Bay62]

I can’t see how Carlton aren’t looking at getting Clarko in. Wouldn’t be doing their job if they weren’t considering it

He hasn’t overseen a rebuild but they’ll look past that. 0-3 and the Teague Train will be off the rails

 

[FR0GGY]

If mick had more time i reckon he'd have been alright.

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

Carlton would do well to bring in Don Pyke
