jnrmac 20,390 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Lachie Henderson has requested a trade. The Blues are making him sit out the last 3 games of the year. Good for us I suppose ... This is what's happening now. Players naming their destination and saying 'stuff you' to the clubs. I hope the Blues play hard ball ... Is he someone we want??
Mach5 4,768 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Geelong were hopeful last time I asked (about 2 months ago) but thought he'd stay at Carlton. They'll be licking their lips now. Plenty of cap room with Enright, Johnson, Kelly, Stokes, McIntosh, Simpson and others all out the door.
Mach5 4,768 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Why would Henderson request a trade though? I was under the impression he was a RFA.
Nasher 33,686 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Titus O'Reily: Henderson quits Carlton to try his hand in the AFL. Razor sharp.
chook fowler 19,783 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 You have to wonder about his attitude. Seems only to try when he feels like it. Threw in the towel ages ago. Geelong will have two flakey players on their list if you add him to Clarke. A think they would have learned from that.
DemonDave 1,099 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Makes Levi Casboult look like a good player, no thanks
SaberFang 7,151 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Shocking attitude. Wouldn't touch a player that gives up so laughably before the season even ends. Very similar to some of the players we've had over the years who throw in the towel after 5 rounds.
The Chazz 4,077 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Geelong I heard. Think every man and his dog have heard that, but thanks for the update, CNN...

Very similar to some of the players we've had over the years who throw in the towel after 5 rounds. requests a trade to a side with Lonergan, Taylor and co. are Are Geelong and Hawthorn hoarding all the backmen in the league? for once can't they go to the doggies, saints or us ?
SaberFang 7,151 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 I'd say our odds have shortened for Saturday. Not saying Carlton are tanking but they'll happily make their team weaker if the presents itself.
Wiseblood 24,637 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 I wonder if he was told he was going to be dropped and then just came out and told them he was going to leave anyway... ?
Straight Sets Simon 23,113 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 I wonder if he was told he was going to be dropped and then just came out and told them he was going to leave anyway... ? "You can't fire me, I quit!"

And with an admin constantly deliberately undermining the old coach, which in turn effected team harmony, & satis-factions.
Sir Why You Little 37,478 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 How convenient for Carltank A legitimate (excuse)
dee-luded 2,959 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 my bad I deleted a post, I thought I had moved to the hird thread, & so accidentally posted those thoughts in here.
whatwhat say what 23,884 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 a carlton supporter i know swears blind he's worth a first rounder. and so is yarran. pfffffft. mind you, said carlton supporter who goes to a lot of underage games also says he doesn't think much of weitering - but that he's clearly the standout of what is a super-weak draft.
monoccular 17,761 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 I'd say our odds have shortened for Saturday. Not saying Carlton are tanking but they'll happily make their team weaker if the presents itself. Why not speak the truth. After all there is no way a Fitzpatrick (Mr Integrity #2) run commission will do a thing about it.

Redleg 42,189 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 I'd say our odds have shortened for Saturday. Not saying Carlton are tanking but they'll happily make their team weaker if the presents itself. And then have an article come out that refers to other players leaving like Menzel and Bell. Yes, that wouldn't destabilize a team, would it. They want pick 1 and PSD 1 and will do anything to get them.
Demon_spurs 1,984 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Carlton must hope that no one makes a private joke, could cost them $500k. Hey had another thought what if McLean decides to dump on them like he did for us, I understand he wasn't happy with the cliques at Carlton
BAMF 4,488 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 They want pick 1 and PSD 1 and will do anything to get them. Yes. They will then be able to low ball Essendon for Carlisle. When they refuse, Carlisle will demand to be traded for that low pick or walk. Carlisle is angry enough to go through with it too.
monoccular 17,761 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Yes. They will then be able to low ball Essendon for Carlisle. When they refuse, Carlisle will demand to be traded for that low pick or walk. Carlisle is angry enough to go through with it too. and soon after he arrives at Visy Paper Bag Park, WADA will hit....another blow to the inventors of tanking.
What 18,810 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 This bloke is such an average plodder. Would bring me great joy if Geelong overpaid for him.
