We go to the games - we see bad news
We open the papers - we read bad news
We go on TC - and get depressed when fellow posters point out how badly we are struggling at the moment

But it will end! Let's focus on that for a while. This season is probably going to bring its share of pain. And perhaps every single early draft pick we've had in the last 3 years won't become a gun. But we will taste the glory again - it might be 3 years, or 5, or 10...who knows? But it will happen. I was born into one of Carlton's most successful eras - in my first four years of primary school, we won three flags. I thought this was the way it was supposed to happen. But despite the sweetness of those flags, and others I have seen, NOTHING, repeat NOTHING, is going to be sweeter than the next one.

We are putting the plans in place. NO doubt the club is not getting everything right along the way. But we drafted the best available talent at the time over the last three years. We will probably get a very early pick again in the super draft this year. We went out and got the best coach available after we sacked Brittain. Has Denis with one "n" forgotten how to coach in the meantime? IMO, he hasn't had the cattle. But things will turn around, and boy, it's going to be sweet when they do.

I can handle the heartache if I can see we are going forward...we havent got anything to lose and everything to gain by just attacking. Our game plan is so defensive that we have become decisive...pagan just let then play. What i would like to see in 2006!!! thorton at half back, saddington/whitnall chb, livo/bower/hartlett FB(we have nothing to lose and everything to gain in the future) walker attacking half back flank and told to just run like the wind and attack!!! No prendergast(no matter what)!! and just let the kids play...jackson,murphy,edwards,russell,harlett.

Will this happen? I think not!!!I would rather lose by hundred points and see they are trying to win the game than lose by 100points and play the defensive crap we are playing currently!!!
