I was listening to trade radio yesterday and Wallace's assessment on Carlton's list was scathing! It warms the heart to hear that and I don't think he's the first person to suggest that Carlton's list is miles off from being finals contenders let alone premiership contenders.
Of course reading TankingCarlton, they believe Wallace just hates Carlton and isn't objectively assessing their list

Traded picks to get McLean, Warnock during Judd era to give them best chance of winning flag whilst Judd was playing. Holes in their list due to these decisions. Getting Malthouse just made a bad situation worse.
To be fair, had Fevola not been such a moron, they may well of made the prelim in 2011 had he still been with them.

Yes Carlton devoted far too much time and its resources towards ensuring that Judd would somehow win a premiership with them despite it being delusional from everyone else's perspective.
Judd as an individual was their best player between 2008-2014 but they were absolute rubbish when it came to draft selections and recruiting good players all around the ground during their lean years. Carlton had a strong midfield and one good forward option in Fevola and that was it.
Carlton should have been far better between 2009-2011 but ultimately a semi final elimination was the best they could achieve much to the delight of all of us

Funny article!
In all seriousness though Carlton has obtained five players during this trade period. Let's take a look at these selections:
1). Sam Kerridge - 22 Years Old (27 Games, 23 Goals)
2). Lachie Plowman - 20 Years Old (18 Games, 1 Goal)
3). Jed Lamb - 23 Years Old (22 Games, 17 Goals) - Carlton is his third club in his short career.
4). Andrew Phillips - 24 Years Old (14 Games, 5 Goals)
5). Liam Sumner - 22 Years Old (12 Games, 9 Goals)
I'm trembling in fear!

Blues in the red: Carlton to post $2 million loss, break debt ceiling

It is considered unseemly and distasteful to take joy in someone's misery in their hour of need...
...so, I guess I'll just have to live with that!

http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/b ... kvb0a.htmlCarlton will post one of the biggest financial losses in the club's history, and are expected to be $2 million in the red after notching just four wins for the 2015 season.
The result follows a $1.6 million loss for the 2014 season, but of more concern to the Blues is the fact they are in danger of breaching a "debt ceiling" imposed by the AFL, which underwrites a maximum $5 million Westpac overdraft for every club in the competition. According to the most recent accounts, Carlton have overdrawn that facility.
Blues president Mark LoGiudice has briefed influential club figures in the past month on the significant trading loss and debt issues.

And now Clem Smith in trouble for a a fight in Chapel Street. I would have thought after Fevola the scum would have warned the players about those hotspots.
The late Robbie Flower coached my mates kids team. He used to say the best place was to go to restaurants and Cafes and have a wine with your meal, and maybe a few beers, but where possible local.. No chance of some idiot wanting to make a hero of himself. And in summer adopt a local cricket or golf club and just don't put yourself in situations where unknown wankers can have a go at you.
