Fasolo’s role at the Pies last year was playing
Reserves
Let’s hope Shane McAdam turns out to be a spud at the Crows
Has done his calf
Prior to that was showing a lot of promise
If he turns out to be the new Eddie Betts
Then the McGovern trade would be the worst trade ever

Ross pick 43
Stack got for nothing really
Look better for the Tigers than nearly every player on our list

Tom Morris worked for Melbourne last year, got sacked because he wrote BS stories about divides in playing group etc

I don't recall getting any of them.

Stack had heaps of off field issues. If we chose him and it turned to shit, I'm sure we wouldn't have heard a word about it from you.

I’m not sure what your point is. Your original post suggested SOS should have only drafted TAC players during this rebuild.

Ross and Stack look 2 good players to me that
Bring the intangibles needed to be a good AFL footballer

SOs missed these blokes when he could have used those picks to get these blokes
Or other good kids
Instead he used them on McGovern Setterfield his son Newman and O’Dwyerc

I understand because of the rules and the shocking state of the list when
he arrived he couldn’t just pick kids given the number of spuds on the list at that time but he has gone for too many blokes from
other AFL clubs who are average
They clutter the list up
When the team goes bad the head coach cops it in the head
The recruiting is the problem IMO

SOS simply isn’t as good at recognizing talent
compared to other recruiters

SOS and Brodie seem obsessed in getting blokes
From GWS
His 2 sons are at the club
Even O’Dwyer is from the private school the Silvangis went to

They don’t seem to look too far from their home when looking for talent
What’s their strategy for overseeing the
WAFL
SANFL
Top End
Tassie
The Geelong League
Brodie is the National Recruiting Manager
How does he cover these competitions

It seems to me that they don’t have it together

I was appalled at what they did in last years draft
Because of what he has done Bolton hasn’t a lot to work with

Personally, I’ve been happy with what we’ve done at the trade and ND tables since SOS took over. I’ve been a little mystified at some of our DFA, PSD & rookie selections, but overall I reckon SOS has done a good job turning the list over since end of 2015.

Things haven’t gelled amongst the players for a variety of reasons (lack of synergy caused by massive player turnover, injuries, on-field leadership gap, playing too many kids in key roles before they are ready to play consistently well, jury still out on game style, coaching etc); I don’t agree it’s because of our recruitment. Overall, I reckon SOS has delivered on his mandate.

I'm sick of all the Carlton bashers.
I'm sick of their sickness: bias and anti Carlton.
Lloyd, Robbo, Whately, Caro...now you...

IMO, you are seriously sick keogh
You are obsessed with SOS.
You haven't got a balanced argument. Its all full on attack attack attack SOS, The Board...generally everything Carlton is doing. I don't see anything pro Carlton from you, when there's plenty to acknowledge...even SOS.

Get your facts right.
SOS stayed out of the selection of his sons.
Brodie wasn't around when Jack was selected.
That is purely awful what you say.

I don't know any Carlton supporter who wouldn't want Carlton to make space for the Silvagni name on our list. Are you really disappointed Jack and Ben are on our lists for picks 53 and 70 odd? or Did you expect Carlton to select them?

Talk about looking in the rear view mirror.
Get a grip with today. What we have, not what we haven't.

All clubs, not just Carlton, don't have Stack Back and Crack on their list.
It is normal not to have every player some supporters want on their list.
It is normal for that to happen.

There's a million reasons why some players are overlooked.
No recruitment team knows every player. None.

What makes you think you're a better recruiter and judge than SOS?
That's egotistical and out of order...all the above statements you make.
They're unfounded accusations.

Late picks are a punt.
Finbar may surprise.
I didnt want the likes of Brendan Goddard bringing his own issues to the club.
Ditto Smack. There's lots of those types.

You have a go at SOS because he didn't do what you wanted.
Grab your toys and just go. This obsession is seriously sick.
Try an avoid not thinking of SOS. It will do you wonders.

SOS and his family will be part of the fabric of this club longer than you will.
They are all welcome and expected.

I didn't realise till now you are obviously a SOS basher.
A bit pf balance please. He has made selections we all like, even you.

Watch HIS list do wonderful things.

I'm in as well.
Hard decisions to trade out players like Gibbs but we got two for one and three for two. You can't trade lead and expect gold. You have to trade gold and get two silvers and a bronze.
My problem isn't with SOS.
I'm just a bitter old man.

Some of your points are reasonable, but so many aren't balanced and you come across with an incredible bias.
