I've heard west coast were just going to swap Juddy for some unused water bottles and 3 Ross Faulkner footys, but we insisted they take more.

What if we could go back to before 2002 when regrets seemed so few and so far?

What if all of us had the ability to play AFL? Would we all have stayed at Carlton?

Only one regret that matters

We lost Kouta, SOS, Allan and Braddles in the last 3 weeks of the 2000 season
We shoul've had 17 flags and the druggies 15

Round 21 2000 (I think it was R21)
We were about 15 points up against those c#$% when Allan, Bradley and Kouta all got injured
Then SOS in that final against Bris I think

Here's a fun what if?

We didn't trade for Judd. We keep Kennedy and draft Masten at pick 3. Not getting Judd means that we we put more weight on strengthing our midfield so we pick Cotchin instead of Kreuzer. We have a poor year in 2008 without Judd and we therefore are lower on the ladder and pick up Hurley instead of Yarran. Jacobs stays because there's more opportunity.

Out: Judd, Kreuzer, Yarran
In: Kennedy, Masten, Cotchin, Hurley, Jacobs

Is that better? I have no idea.

As good Braddles was in 2000 it was all about Kouta, he was invincible. The druggies were already beaten mentally and on the scoreboard - if Kouta stands up we have a new reality. We would have finished top of the ladder, we would not have played Brisbane, SOS would have been fine, and we would have won the GF in a canter no matter who we played.

I was so excited going to that game, my Scum supporting mates were as nervous as hell despite only losing one game at that point, we were on fire and then it all stopped..... and has never been really ignited again.

Bradley and Kouta got injured right at the start of the game, we had a 2 goal lead late in the 3rd quarter then faded away.

I remember David Parkin losing his shit at the umpires at half time.
