I'm tipping each one of those goals that Schitz has kicked has cost a way lot more than what Durdin has kicked
There they go again with this cheap bargain hunter mentality.
The logic is "I'm ok with half our players being spuds because they are cheap to acquire and cheap on the cap"🤣.
What a formula for success that is. Carlton are the NQR shoppers of the AFL!
 
Says Arrow derailing the thread with his Fadge obsession again rather than talking about 2025.

Derailing? I don't bang on about the past or the so called contending, but I will reply in kind

So, what are your thoughts on 2025, given we were better in 2024 and the year is nearly done?

I predict that you will spend most of 2025 getting annoyed by Fadge like you did this year.

Annoyed? Mate I just constantly laugh at the foot swapping, but it seems you still want to focus on other aspects

Try this, Who will be Better in 2025, Collingwood or Carlton?

I'm just following the topic of discussion YOU brought up (is Fadge's posting)

Pies will go past Carlton in 2025. Top 6.
Carlton to finish 7th-11th.
 
Them Pies are only mildly warm ish
Why do you have to post like a Worm4? ;)

I found the quote from Tuohy about Carlton ten years ago:

"Carlton was taking a financial approach to winning Premierships: buying individual talent rather than focusing on building a strong overall team" he talks about how the rich players didn't spend time with the poor players, and the different attitude to winning. and the way players didn't support each other.

Now to be fair a leader like Crippa would never let that sort of divide emerge (as Judd did, he was a poor captain in some ways) and it seems Carlton has tried to create some team balance. I can't help feeling the loss of Owies and Kennedy is a step back toward that attitude. Middling players get cut, the stars get coddled and lauded, and the kids pay the price.

Yes I am still salty about Owies. He is like Steve Da Rui back in the 80's, always had a crack, and one of the few Blues I could let myself like.

I don't think 10 years ago is relevant to today, on field or culturally

I am disappointed that we let go the likes of Kennedy and Owies, durable and great club men, but thankfully we have also finally moved on injury prone types that have been on the list for far too long

Also, other clubs losing the likes of Kennedy and Owies didn't hamper success, so it shouldn't be viewed by our supporters as an excuse if we fail to compete at the pointy end

Over the last decade, clubs average around 9 changes a year, its the simple realities of the modern area
 
What a reach talking about Owies and Kennedy referencing stuff that was happenning 10 years ago...what about Collingwood chopping Treloar/Grundy/Adams and a bunch of injury prone players ...

#typical dirtybirder rubbish

We didn't shop Adams. He left.

What works at one club could easily backfire badly at another. It all depends on culture and leadership. Bloosers aren't known for their strong culture.
 
Yeah mate... We won a flag last year with a poor culture👍.
A sure way to bore anyone in the room is keep droning on about some inconsequential thing that happened over a year ago.
