Post subject:  Your worst carlton predictions???? Time to fess up

Lets be honest we have all made them from time to time, I am talking about predictions regarding carlton (or the players) we make but then turn out to be completely wrong and we look like a goose. If your lucky you havent bombarded all your mates with your thoughts and hence will be able to live them down some time in the next year, BUT often we get caught up in the passion that is footy and end up looking like a dill.

Here are some of mine:
1. "Andrew Cavedon will be an all Australian ruckman"
2. "Im not sure that Williams for Minton connell is a wise trade"
3. "Captaincy will really suit Lance and improve him as a footballer"
4. "I think Christou will be a better player than Kouta" - made after both had played about 30 games
5."Tony Lynn is the barometer of Carlton" (94)
6. We are rebuilding but have the best coach (pagan) in the competition said during his first season.

There are many more and I consider myself to be an astute football judge

Cmon time to fess up

"Corey McKernan is a great get, and will be a huge boost alongside Fev"

Jimmy Plunkett is small and slow, but so was Diesel. I reckon he could be almost as good"

I remember Cammo saying Chris Bryan would be the best ruckman we've had at Carlton since John Nicholls.

Simon Minton-Connell will kick over 80 goals this season (around 1992).

I want Terry Wallace as our coach (before Pagan was given the job)

Ha, he would have kicked around 80 or more for the Swans one year. Not too far off the mark.

'Pagan is the right man for the job... He'll fix up our recruiting problems and have us back playing finals in no time' (upon The Dark Lord's appointment by Big Jack in late 2002)...

'Watch out for Eddie Betts.. that kids is going to be a star!!' - (said before Eddie's first Pre Season game in 2005) Yet to be proven wrong, but after 3 seasons at the club, Eddie is hardly a star...
