BLUES ABOUT MORE THAN WINS AND LOSSES SAYS CEO
Carlton CEO Cain Liddle has urged Blues fans to look past the win-loss category when assessing the club’s 2018 success.
The Blues enter the new campaign looking to break a four-year finals drought, but Liddle says going all-in to achieve that goal won’t be done, if it sacrifices long-term sustainability.
Since 2014, Carlton has finished 13th, 18th, 14th and 16th, but a quick climb up the table won’t be the priority.
“I don’t want to put a ceiling on how many wins we might have, but I think there is some realities we need to consider,” Liddle told SEN Breakfast.
“When you’re a young, developing list, you become more resilient on some of the older players. To lose Sam Docherty half an hour into preseason doesn’t help.
“What you will see from Carlton is the continued investment in those young players and you will see continued development.
“I urge all Carlton supporters not to judge that on wins and losses, because they can be misreading.
“I think everyone would agree SOS (list manager Stephen Silvagni) and his team have done a great job at the draft the last three years and they’ve traded in well.
“Are we aiming to have more than eight wins? We certainly are, but there’s a whole range of things that contribute to that.
“You’ll see continued investment in those younger players, and continued development, to create that sustained period of success we all want, rather than jumping up the ladder for one year and then dropping back off.”
