10 of their 23 yesterday came from other clubs. Shows how poor their drafting has actually been.
Biggest losing streaks starting 0-2 in VFL/AFL seasons

Keep the records coming carltoon.
The more Dow and O'Brien play, the less they seem like top 10 picks. At least Dow had a promising first year.
If you don't have speed/running ability you are going to struggle to play this years brand under the new rules.
Cripps is being made a little redundant.
And a guy like Howe, who relies on reading the game and slow ball movement/high balls to packs, is another who looks likely to play a reduced role. He's not really a man on man player and with the ball moving so fast between the arcs it doesn't lend itself to as much 3rd man up play. No AA for Howe this year.

"There’s never been a club like Carlton when it comes to building up their supporters hopes in preseason — then immediately crushing them."
Media getting stuck into carltoon.
Carltoon now the laughing stock of the AFL
No paper bags are going to help them

Its crazy when you break down their team. The high picks they have on their list and how poor they are. Development must be shocking at the Blues.

If you have recruited well from other clubs and developed well, those top picks should be driving you to top 4, not struggling to make finals.
Haven’t seen a free agents value drop like this in a long time.
Cripps has to stay, Carlton needs him to stay and other clubs would be nervous about paying a bloke who can’t run in a running game. It’s a reduced cap as it is and blokes like Cripps aren’t going to be able to demand top dollar.
Carlton, still in no mans land.

Dunno about you but my hopes were never built up pre-season.
Admittedly they would be much more dangerous with Curnow, McGovern, and Marchbank to provide structure in the side but their biggest issue is they have no second or third tier midfield, and they also went for Betts instead of Butler or Brandon Ellis.
4 genuine A graders missing from geelong's lineup in duncan, menegola, cameron and danger but they should still easily beat the flat track bullies
