Carlton fans rate CJ



Recommended Posts

Posted

I've kept an eye on him in his first few games with the Blues, and hardly anything to write home about.

Is doing no more or less for them that he did for us when he got a chance............but he's only played two preseason games for them.

Some of their posters are right on the money.............when a few of their better running defenders come back like Scotland, and Walker, he may find it a bit harder to get a game.

Good luck to him though................he left for his own reasons, and I wish him all the best.

I couldn't give a rats about CJ, i'm not massively bitter about the way he left. There was a better opportunity for him at Carlton and i don't think many at the Dees rated him, personally i didn't.

Certainly hope that his pockets are loaded.

Unfortunately for us, I think diamond Jo nearly went broke.

I agree.

I missed the match but did he go OK? I rated him here and was filthy he walked away for nothing

In the North Melbourne match, did a few good things, kicked a nice goal, and then turned a simple ball over for a goal, and let a 5 year old girl run around him and kick a goal without offering more than a whimper.

Hope he proves e wrong, but I don't think he has what t takes when the going gets tough

will be lucky to play 10games a year without injuries to other players. If carlton fans rate CJ then that sums them up!

Yes - fancy being optomistic or supportive of a new player.......

Posted

What they're saying about CJ is less optimistic than some of the stuff I read about Meesen a few years back. By the way, how's Meesen going? How many games has he played for us? Or for the Crows, for that matter?

Posted

i saw him turn it over a few times on the weekend with passes to spectators two rows back..

good luck to him but think we have better optiosn and he was never going to the difference between us winning and losing!!

I consider CJ a traitor to leave the way he did so i don't care what he does or how well. i just expect melbourne to play him hard & tight when we play Carlton

Was the public face of the CFC on the TV news last night and aquitted himself well. I don't mind him but I think he had no future at the club and made the right career move.

Can we move on now please?

Too right.

CJ would struggle to get a game with the D`s by midyear if he was still with us anyway. Get over it people. Didnt we get an extra pick out of it in the PSD as a result!!??


Posted

Yep, because CJ left it meant we had room for Jarah.

I am happy with that and wish him well.

He is not a bad player and I am sure Carlton would be happy also.

Your right Jack, lets all move on.

Posted

Exactly.

I think in the long run we've actually done pretty well out of being screwed over by Carlton.

Instead of Judd - we have Morton, Grimes and Maric,

Instead of R. Warnock - we have Strauss,

Instead of C. Johnson - we have Jurrah.

We won't know until about three years from now, I guess, but I think the five we got are 'more likely to take us to the top more often' over the years than the three the Blues got.

Besides, the Johnson and the Warnock we still have are better anyway ;)

Posted

I add also that Instead of R.Warnock - we also have Spencer, in addition to Strauss. If we took Warnock then I am not sure we would be trialling Spencer now. Whatever Warnock does he would have cost $400,000 a year. We would be paying Spencer a pittance, he is performing and he is not injured ATM.

But your right about the time frame - at least three years.

FWIW, I dont think it was a case of instead of Judd. He was always going to Carlton.

Posted

Out of respect for Chris's father's contribution to our club and the fact that Chris is a young man who was neither a star or a regular team member, I suggest we wish him good luck and end this thread.

PS. We as a club have a lot to look forward to with all of our young players.

I wasnt happy when he walked out but now couldn't care less. If CJ couldnt get a regular game last year with the state Melbourne were in then i think it was in his best interest to move on and wish him all the best. I think we has handy last night for the blues and deserves a chance to be in there best 22. In the end it i hope its a win for him having a long career with Carlton and a win for Melbourne picking up Jarah. I am still very dirty on Scott Thompson leaving the club i love the way he plays his footy and he would be real asset on and off the field which is what we need. Anyone remember who or what we got for him?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
