How will everyone react if we win the wooden spoon?

Looks a distinct possibility now.

I'm surprised how little the prospect is upsetting me.

I cared before we d 'won' one before, but now that we ve got 3, I don't care. It gives us 2 top 20 draft picks is an awesome help to the rebuilding of our list. Just need to make sure we nail our picks.

That might be the fly in the ointment!

If the Number 1 pick isn't clear cut, it would be a good carrot to dangle. Not saying we trade the pick for a player, but possibly 2 1st Round Picks.

I'd only downgrade into the top 3 or 5, depending on the talent pool and the gap between our judgement of #1 and the chasing pack.

Fabulous sign to the board that they can't shy away from.

I care...

It's degrading and embarrassing... Especially when we're better than our position suggest imo.

Pick 1 pfft

My reaction to the wooden spoon (if that be the case) is we must find an on field leader first and foremost. A Selwood or a Hodge type of player who will lead by example and unify the troops.

This to me is a glaring deficiency we currently have that must be rectified. Don't get me wrong, I love Murphy, I think he's a fantastic player and a great man to have at Carlton.

But if we're going to the table with a number 1 pick, I want that pick to be spent on leadership.

I'm happy to take the medicine. The spoon we have to have.

Just another Kruezer, Murphy, Gibbs for us to winge about in 5 years time or another we can trade to watch him became a star somewhere else. You've learnt nothing!

I remember when we won the "Bryce Gibbs Cup". That didn't turn out quite as well as we'd hoped.

Post subject:  Re: The Wooden Spoon

I don't rememebr any Gibbs Cup. There was a Kreuzer Cup.

Look back at that 2006 Draft. What a stinker.
Gibbs at 1 Boak at 5 Selwood at 7 Gray at 55 and Westoff in the 70s probably still the top 5 and Gibbs def at 5 or 6

Riewoldt Frawley and Armitage next best

Dear Carlton.
When you get the pick and use it on a future star please don't put him in the leadership group before he has started his first preseason. Kthxby

It wont be just a wooden spoon, it will have LED flashing lights on it this time, maybe even fog coming out of it. It will engage us.

Don't want it.

Top 5 picks are all the same. There are stars and there are duds.

If there is another Kruezer Cup situation I want us to win.
