Toast The New Carlton Thread: inexperienced Collingwood winger to rule Carlton

[sideswipe]

Hope Wrighty's exit clause is that he must not sack Vossy

Excellent title change. Wright has always been a Filthy Team Swapper. Ever since he moved from Devonport to East Devonport.

Do the dickheads ever have an original idea of their own? Sloppy seconds central at Carlton. Second hand coach, second hand CEO, second hand footy manger, second hand club in general.

I think SOS was pretty original when he sang like a canary during the salary cap scandal. Pretty innovative to dob in everyone else.

We’ve seen this movie before

Just checked out the Houston thread on the MB.
It’s quite amazing the number of blueballers that are concerned about our future.
It’s very heartwarming to know they care, whereas I want nothing but failure for them.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

If Wright left bc he couldn’t handle Kelly’s personality he’s gunna have lots of fun at Carlton

That’s some ancient grudge. I like it. Did you forgive him in 1990 when he almost won the Brownlow?

 

[Kes1984]

They look absolutely chuffed to be heading to a club that’s mediocre

I legit read the word "chats" as "cheats". Not joking.

Just expect that with the Scum I suppose!

 

[Kes1984]

It should also be 'Best Final Player'...

I think when you go out in an Elimination Final, you skip that award!

Amended

Or ‘I competed’

No grudge. Merely an observation of past behaviour.

What Carlton are up to this trade period:

• Picked up a 32 year old (33yo for the season) KPD
• Tried to move on Matthew Kennedy but nobody wanted him at the price
• Tried to move on Lewis Young but nobody wanted him at the price
• Haven't offered a contract to their 3rd highest goal kicker for 2024 (Kennedy 6th for 2024)

How exactly are they going to improve in 2025?

30+ year old players in 2025:

• Nick Hayes
• Nic Newman (2nd B&F)
• Sam Docherty
• Adam Saad
• Zach Williams
• Mich McGovern
• Patrick Cripps (1st B&F)

They must be happy with 60 - 0 in finals

To me, looks like they have hit their ceiling, if so, them hitting the draft says that they can not win a Premiership with their current players.

I don't understand why they are pushing Owies out the door (as much as he's an annoying pr!ck) and holding onto Fantasia is baffling. Wouldn't expect much jumper pulling from Owies next season.

Kennedy must be absolutely stocked to be still at Cartoon, getting subbed out of the prelim, voted best clubman, but still being pushed out the door, then having to stay at that joke of a club.

Reckon they are going to the draft because they are up to pussy's bow on their cap - the Owies non-offer can only be because they can't fit him in. And similarly, they were looking to offload Kennedy for some cap relief.

 

[Kes1984]

How fun is it hating this mob and watching them live in mediocrity at best. Puts a smile on my face when I think about it.

they already look smug, going to fit in well

Both thinking "Why did you have to play 100 games for such a shithole Dad?"

There's that beautiful number again.

 

[Fadge]

There's that beautiful number again.

There are so many beautiful numbers associated with Carlton.

Since the turn of the century:
0 times as a premiership contender.
1 single Preliminary Final.
5 Wooden Spoons.
30% winning ratio against Collingwood.
31% probability their current premiership drought extends to 50 years (and beyond).
49 years old - the age of Carlton's YOUNGEST premiership player.

 

[NMBB]

...14% winning ratio against Collingwood.
30% winning ratio against Collingwood...

Good stuff but this?

 

[Fadge]

Good stuff but this?

Fixed.

I used the 14% stat from another poster, but when I fact checked I realised it was 14 wins from 45 games...
