Absolutely! Im excited at the prospect of these young guys developing together. Plenty of youth through our squad and give it 2-3 years and i reckob we can give it a real shake as long as the list management can keep them all together! Be interesting to see the long term ramifications of the Tom Boyd deal...


Both Jackson and Stringer signed extensions today. More great news for the Dogs.

The Doom and Gloom from losing the coach and captain 6 months ago has certainly risen

Well I don't reckon there's too much available. Mick will be resigned for two more years is my prediction

For Carltons sake I hope he isnt. He is blaming everyone except himself for the situation they are in. Time to go...Mick.

No. Please god, no. There are lots of options around. Throw the kitchen sink at Clarko, Lyon etc. Don't care what it takes, just get that old fart out there.

We will need 5 years to turn this around, Mick is currently 61 and too old to be there for our next premiership assault. As it stands we're not even going to assault the top 8 the way we're looking this year.

Can't people see he's taken us backward after being brought in to "polish" us off for a premiership assault? FFS, I'm getting the chicken livers ready just in case he does get reappointed.

Mick can be a grumpy old flog but he is the least of Carlton's problems.
Their list is close to the worst in the comp, doubt Clarko could do any better with that list of duds.
They are years away from making finals, the Judd trade hurt them more than could ever believe.
No co-incidence that Carlton hasnt been a powerhouse since brown paper bags were outlawed and they cant just buy a flag anymore.

That's my point precisely. It's all been built during his stay.

Thanks!

With everyone fit and in form, what's Carltons best forward line? Seems very very weak
