Let's take over Carlton!

Carlton Sack Brendon Bolton
I have no idea what the level of his ability is but it appears to be the old easy out. Much easier to replace one coach than 20 players who are not up to it. Took us the best part of six years to make a significant improvement to the list. Why is SOS not on the way out at the same time, he is after all the archithect of their list and he has been there some time.

Way cheaper than building a ground over the railway yards that some on here want to do Bbo.

We should take them over. They have some good kids, a good trading ground and club facilities. Just pander to the Carltonites for five years by using the jumper every now and then. we will pick up 10% of their supporters and have a great facility in inner Melbourne. It would be way cheaper than all the hair brain schemes suggested to give us a home.

To many it is the holy grail George. As a result normal logical vanishes in the chase to obtain it.

Exactly my point Mr Shadow. The idea and the actual are miles apart. Most members want a facility but very few would actually go to it on any more than once every pancake Day. I have a number of friends who are keen Tigers members they go to every game at the G and they tell me they have not been to the Tigers facilities in ten years. They are more concerned about maintaining their seats at games. I also know a number of Pie members who have never been to see the pies at their OP ground let alone gone inside. I know three Hawks members who have never been to Waverley. Because Dees supporters have never had a facility it has become some sort of mystical spot to be desired beyond all else. IMO the value is outweighed by the cost/ location problems.

A fair comment dd. means zero to me. My objective is to have the best facilities for our players, FD and office team to give us the best chance of winning games. Everything after that is expendable IMO. My view is don't stop achieving the first because of the need for the second.
