No Oppo Supporters Double-Death-Riding Carlton 2019 Edition - Currently Pick 1 and 19

[ad victoriam]

You must have me mistaken with someone else

I said the priority of drafting is not having a bust, getting the best player in the draft with every pick is a bonus. Nor have I ever questioned your drafting, player identification or development, in fact I have stated many times that I rate it highly

never mistaken you, for someone else.
And you have a few time indirectly criticize Adelaide ability to get a good player with there 1st rd selection.

Never once, so I would be interested where you saw it

A simple question, would you swap every player on your list for all the players on our list?

If we did that, Stocker would turn into the next injuryfree gary ablett jnr. nothing surer!!

Based on that, any person would say yes, given the complete, instant, turnaround in fortunes for 2019. Perhaps selecting a squad from both sides to be strong in the now and future would be more appropriate

I could ask a similar question, given the 2 years you just had, would you have changed your list with WC and or Richmond?

Plenty of clubs would take WC list...especially if it came with the football department. A formidible combination.
Our list with better management would be very similar anyway.

Certified insane thought process. We're not the Carlton pity board.

We're the Adelaide board and we want pick 1.

Some people may like to hide behind a veneer of faux sportsmanly care. As if sportsmanship has a place in the AFL. But even that lot who won't post it publicly are jizzing that this takes us closer to pick 1

If you think I'm disagreeing, you didn't fully read my post. I was trying to point out how weird it is that we have members sending Carlton sympathies from a death riding thread. I think it's fairly normal to feel bad for any player who does a season ending injury. That doesn't mean I'm going to suddenly feel bad for Carlton as a club or their flog supporters.

Maybe you should reread all your comments on several posts, and also check out your Likes, you may find out you have. indirectly criticize Hamish ability to get a good player.

It appears this trampoline is being hid under the bed.

How the f**k could someone use a trampoline in a reckless manner where it could cause him to land recklessly is beyond me.

GreyCrow mentioned its merits and I do concur, but from my understanding the injury was possibly sustained over the weekend while at his gf place.

At his Gfs? A Mini-tramp?

 

[GreyCrow]

A mini tramp

Useful for calorie burn and leg strengthening. Have to ask the experts on the benefits for knee recos but as a layman I can see the benefit of using one

I don't need to review my posts, as I am clear as to my thoughts on your drafting.

I have NEVER, been critical of your player identification or development

Go back through my history, if you believe it exists

 

[FR0GGY]

I actually dont want Carlton to get injuries, they will self destruct on their own without any assistance.

Them having these injuries allows them to use excuses before the end of the H&A season.

I don’t care if they use excuses, all it means is they’ve finished near the bottom and we get an extreamly low pick.

Sure you are not thinking about crazy Geoff?

 

[Thetrader15]

For a visiter, you really don't know much,
You mention Drafting is about minimizing busts, not getting the best player for your club, interesting, but that another discussion,
But your cherry picking comment is beyond belief.
Tell me can you actually name one of Hamish 1st rd Picks that has been a failure.
Crows problem is we don't get too many of them and when we do most are in the teens.
But name a Hamish's 1st failure. he's a big hint don't go back beyond 2007.

Especially since he took over in 2012

no he tends to like a few comments in some the other posts, the reason I worded it as indirectly.

I "like" posts that put forward balanced views, despite not always agreeing

Richmond wouldn’t have won a flag if their away ground was the MCG. Absolutely no chance.

Certainly gives them a strong advantage, but they were dominant through every final's game in 2017

Where did they play those games?Cotchin was also allowed to play despite the fact that he should have been suspended according to the rules that were used all year. FYI, as a crow he would have been suspended for the grand final.

You can't use the MCG as a factor, when they won every final comfortably. WC beat the Pies a ground they also play a fair bit of footy on

As for the Cotchin decision, I agree, that was disgraceful

When they played their first final, away to Geelong at the MCG, and their 3rd final in the grand final, “neutral” at the MCG, I absolutely can.

I understand your point, but WC did beat the Pies at the MCG, Pies had 14 games there(H&A), yet they lost to the better side

West Coast beat Collingwood so there is no longer such thing as home ground advantage. Problem solved.

You asked if we would swap our list with Richmond. They are probably the worst travelling side in the top half of the ladder. I’m pointing out if they were hypothetically based in Adelaide, they would have had to travel for that first final against Geelong and probably lose. Then another prelim away, probably lose. If they managed to win that away prelim, they probably lose the grand final. West Coast vastly improved their record on the road in 2018. Richmond still can’t travel for shit.
