We finished above Pies so what are you raving on about?
Don't you love Richmond supporters?
If Collingwood had have lost the six games that we won by 6 points or less, and Richmond had have won the five games they lost by 4 goals or less, Richmond would have finished above Collingwood.
God bless them.

It was a line ball call for next year but unfortunately for us the addition of Houston to Carlton's side will be huge and i can see them improving way more than us. Unless something has happened there i don't know about?
Who mentioned Carlton?
If Collingwood land Houston on top of Perryman, I can see us using our easier fixture to bridge the gap between Carlton and Collingwood from 6% to 4%
Dan would be foolish to join an ancient list like the one at Collingwood, however. The Blues are so young and inexperienced, the only way is up.

So you were rubbishing another team? I fully agree with you then.

Love the thread title 
How deluded are Carlton?
Not willing to use their #10 pick this year to get Houston, but willing to offer their 1st and 2nd round picks next year, which will be in the order of picks 5 and 23...
I think you're confused

C'mon, if we paid what Port are asking y'all would be trolling us for overpaying. He's good Houston but not that good that we want to abandon our draft plans.

Simple, they choose to go to the draft this year more than picking up Houston.
Have you heard the saying 'A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush'?
You'll use pick 10 on a kid who may not make the grade, and miss out on a dual All-Australian player in his prime?

Might also draft the next Patrick Cripps or Lachie Neale. You can't be sure but we have needs beyond a half back flanker, however decent he is.
I'm not sure a team can ever have too many elite ball users like Dan Housten.
Interesting decision to risk losing him to pick up a kid who may or may not make it - and if Carlton's time is now with your top 5 players in the prime age window - you may be missing an opportunity...
Notice Fadge still trying to deflect from the OP, rather than explaining his "analysis" of why Carlton would finish 13th the last 2 years, or 14th next year, he continues to try and deflect to any random discussion
Salt levels are high, just like 8 to 3 flags in the last 6 decades
Might need more tequila

This thread has to be the worst p!ssing contest ever. Both sides are just pissing into the wind.
As opposed to you leading the count again, which, is another deflection
You really do struggle

We have at least 3 or 4 years in the window, most of the Carlton board would rather go to the draft with 12.
Window?
What window?
If you're referring to a 'Premiership Contention window', which Carlton are yet to enter, wouldn't 5 years of a prime Dan Houston be a better option than the unknown quantity that pick 10 will get you?

You won't see it coming old mate.

Don't worry mate when we arrive you'll be first to find out.
