You enjoy your little fish while we build depth cobs.

Recruiting excess GWS players into your B22 shows how far your club has fallen. Quite sad really............nah karma!

You're having a dip at GWS. What's your point?

 

[TheProwler]

This is the best example of re-writing history that I have seen for some time. Just because the Tigers failed to win a final (again!) doesn't erase all those bold predictions of the Tigers faithful before the finals. The clock is ticking in the Tigers minds, most definitely.

Good attempt at hiding your bitterness while you are trying to take a cheap shot. Feel free to name me some of our B22 that won't be still playing in three years time?

Yarran & co can see the writing on the wall just like Betts and Garlet did.

 

[Robbo's my hero]

Thats the best you've got? That happened 6 years ago. Lmao.
How about those 2 4th rounders you got for Garlett last year? Didnt he kick 40 goals for Melbourne this year?

It was one pick and we used it to pick Clem Smith. What's your point?

 

[inyourcool]

Did you feel pity EF 2013?

 

[TiggerMan22]

It was one pick and we used it to pick Clem Smith. What's your point?

That you had a failure of a trade as recent as last year, while you are going back 6 years to back Richmond about one.

 

[TheProwler]

You're having a dip at GWS. What's your point?

No GWS have a plethora of kids that can't get a game, on low wages and will jump at the opportunity to get senior games and the dollar$ even if it's at Carlton.

You missed the point. You're club is also recruiting GWS players. Why?

 

[UpTheGuts]

Did you feel pity EF 2013?

Only once I realised it was your zenith for the next 20 years. So, after 6 days, yes

 

[Robbo's my hero]

That you had a failure of a trade as recent as last year, while you are going back 6 years to back Richmond about one.

Why is this a failure? The kid is a teenager and played senior footy last year. What's your point?

Ah the crystal ball man making predictions up to 2033.

For Carlton.... Not exactly something to make prominent on your CV

 

[TheProwler]

I don't know where one pick equals two, regardless of the fact that you traded two second rounders for effectively a second round selection. AFL point system aside, pick 19 isn't two second round picks, even at Richmond Tech.

Because we used two 2nd late round selections to get 19 effectively upgrading two into one.

 

[UpTheGuts]

Ah the crystal ball man making predictions up to 2033.

It's fair enough, though.

I mean, you're horrific. Ain't it great?

 

[Robbo's my hero]

Why not?

 

[Robbo's my hero]

You don't know that.

 

[Robbo's my hero]

Really? Are you thick or something?
You gave up a player that ended up kicked 40 goals this year, for a 4th rounder.
Your leading goal kicker this year kicked 31.
How is that not a failure?

I don't see it as a failure as Clem Smith is young and the sky is the limit.

 

[UpTheGuts]

Why not?

Because you are so horrendous that the mere fact some kid plays ahead of the other numpties you've recruited/ drafted is akin to me asking for a medal every time I put out the trash

 

[Robbo's my hero]

Not an apt comparison. It's not difficult to put out a wheelie bin.

 

[UpTheGuts]

Yep. Could be anything

Very Ben Nason circa 2009. But you won't see that yet

 

[Robbo's my hero]

Who's Ben Nason?

 

[UpTheGuts]

Not an apt comparison. It's not difficult to put out a wheelie bin.

It is not difficult to get a game for Carlton, relative to any other team in the league.

Which brings us back to you playing Yarran in the 2's and then expecting pick 12....

 

[IronMan29]

Because we used two 2nd late round selections to get 19 effectively upgrading two into one.

Just because you traded 2 picks for one doesn't mean you can on trade it to another club and say but it really is two picks, effectively it is ONE lower draft pick.......simple.

 

[UpTheGuts]

Who's Ben Nason?

Exactly what you'll be saying re Clem whatever his surname is in 5 years

 

[Robbo's my hero]

Because we used two 2nd late round selections to get 19 effectively upgrading two into one.

And your point?

 

[IronMan29]

It is not difficult to get a game for Carlton, relative to any other team in the league.

And yet your team rates Astbury at 17.....wow
