Carlton Supporters Club

Time to find out where we sit on the Fraud spectrum. Nothing worse than flat track bullies.

Happy the team is finding form but really - WCE and NM are hapless.

Geelong will be a taller order than WC or NM, but I'm not sure a loss to them is an indication of fakery. We are still wobbly, and could not even beat Richmond, so I think a little perspective is in order. Geelong will be strong favorites, and rightly so. I'm not sure you can just flick a switch and start beating the top teams, as much as we would like to. Maybe baby steps for now.

Baby steps? We are 11 years into a rebuild!

The current regime has no say in what came before. Every time there's a change of coach, significant list turnover etc., the club has to, by simple logic, go backwards and in some cases, back to square one. "The Club" is an abstract entity that exists in the minds of supporters, but the club, in terms of performing on field, is nothing more than a collection of individuals at a given period of time The Club is a different club now than it was 10 years ago. IMO, you should not be counting back to the Teague, Malthouse, Bolton etc eras, your count should start with Voss. I know you won't agree. This may be cold comfort / irrelevant / total BS to some, but it's the truth

Your right i don't agree. Its a cop out to say forget the past and the era starts with a change of coach. Thats a losers mentality.  We change coaches every second year! I follow the club and this list has been building for the past decade. Changing a coach doesn't reset the clock as far as im concerned.   

So why is everyone so critical of WC there coach is a newbie ?

Does that mean Swans GF smashing with there current list are all forgotten now?

Even the least objective supporter should be able to see that our rebuild started with the weitering draft.  Thats at worst 9 years ago, but given where we were coming from and the lack of success at the draft table, we are likely doing mini rebuild 3.0 since then now.

The last two weeks we have been at a holiday camp, I don't count them as anything more than training drills even though I did have a genuine sense of concern for the NM match.

This week we are back in the saltmine playing the Cats, another loss (even a hard fought loss) will not be considered acceptable nor tolerated.

They have to do a hell of a lot to rekindle my faith & belief, I can't buy into any short-term sugar-fix, I want long-term results & consistency  

Dropping this game will just show once again that we are in fact, frauds !!
