| Post subject: | New team in the AFL...the Top Ups |
Blackwell on CSC came up with a tragic list of names of top up/recycle players whateva you like to call them.. I decided I would assemble them into a team....we have over the years recruited a entire team of duds, misfits, wannabes and never was's.......Stevens fell into our lap....leaving Scotland as the only real success story..... I think its says something about the club when you can recruit a whole team of nothing and what esle could you expect but wooden spoons on mass..

There's something about Lindsay Smith I'll always like... inexplicable I know... But you've gotta love a guy who's 2 metres call and who's only obvious skill is nearly taking a hanger once every month. |

Some of these lists make a smile come to face, no matter how reluctant. Makes us look not so bad after all. |

Seems like most teams have recruited plenty of dud retreads. 
But lets not that get in the way of bagging Carlton though shall we.

We didnt seem to get the darren jarmans, peter everitts.... and most of those other retred teams would do the business against ours very easily.....they recruited a few who could play..we didnt. But I guess three wooden spoons in five years has no relevance to the clubs recruiting or planning process..... re: bagging carlton?, thought it was a forum for opinion?.......can we expect another sermon?????? or maybe I can read about myself on another website..... |

The % hit rate of all teams is so low it is amazing. It would be interesting in comparing the hit rates and recycling v taking kids in a draft above say postion 40 (arbitary, but most recycles would not be worth anything below this). I think Jarusa makes a good point though. All teams have recycled players and very rarely does it prove overly fruitful. When looking at Carlton remember to keep it in perspective with AFL trends. |
