Brenton Sanderson said he struggles to find a weakness in Carlton’s list, saying he is “really bullish” about their prospects in 2023.
The Blues started the season winning eight of their first 10 games, but sensationally missed the top eight after losing four straight to close out their campaign.
Despite not featuring in finals this year, Sanderson doesn't believe Carlton needs to improve much, saying the club has done a “fantastic job” in building its list.
“I can’t find anywhere (where they need to improve),” he said on AFL Trade Radio’s Trade Afternoons.
“I’m really bullish about the Blues and I loved watching them play this year. Yes they didn’t play off in the finals and weren’t able to clear those last hurdles, but their list profile is excellent.
“They’ve done a fantastic job, they’re young and are stacked with talent. I can’t find a weakness.
“They’re already made some list changes and they’re good players they’ve let go as well – players like Liam Stocker, Tom Williamson and Oscar McDonald.
“I just can’t find a weakness.”
Carlton is expected to largely target the draft this off-season, but is tipped to land Fremantle wingman Blake Acres during the upcoming trade period.
