Even his “positive” Carlton stories begin with four paragraphs of insults.

The truth hurts
We've been a basket case for more than half of the last 2 decades
I actually thought it was a fair article

BUCKENARA SAYS: I really like Carlton’s first two picks — Paddy Dow and Lochie O’Brien are both really good players and will have a close bond from their time at Bendigo Pioneers. The one I want to talk about is Jarrod Garlett. He played 17 games for Gold Coast after being taken at pick 15 back in 2014 and departed the club for family reasons two years later. If he can successfully adjust to a full-time AFL environment at the Blues he will be a walk-up start in the best 22 and has the scope to be in the top 10 players on Carlton’s list. It’s a risk but he’s got serious tricks, enormous talent and class as a forward/midfielder. This could be an absolute masterstroke. Tom De Koning will take time but he could be that replacement for Matthew Kreuzer/Levi Casboult once he develops and he’s actually got a bit of x-factor about him because he’s so athletic for his size and has good skills. Dow and O’Brien should get senior opportunities next year, along with Garlett.

THE VERDICT: Carlton is again one of the big winners of the draft. If Garlett adjusts, the Blues will have picked up three first-round talents and future stars with just two top selections. In three years this could be this draft’s best haul.

It's actually five if you include Kennedy and Lang
