Carlton want to push him out and now lack of suitors? I really hope we don't get involved. Over rated IMO

I don't think its a case of Carlton wanting to push Owies out, think it is more a case of Owies seeking a larger salary on tne back of a good season. I suspect the Blues are happy to keep him if he re-signs on a similar amount to his current contract.

Yeah, it was discussed on SEN this arvo by Josh Jenkins and Adam Cooney plus another dude. He's apparently asking for $700Kp.a on the back of one decent season. The above rated him at 400-500K, hence the lack of interest.

If rather Stringer on that amount

$700-800k?

Tell him he's dreaming.

He could be a handy replacement for Nibbler?🤷‍♂️

Not one bit. He’s an opportunistic forward who refuses to defend and do the hard work. He’s the anti-ANB.

If anywhere near true, that’s just ridiculous. He should thank his lucky stars that he has Curnow and McKay with him. The Blues forward line compliments Owies and this season, made him look much better than he is. In most other teams forward lines, he’s never coming close to kicking the amount of goals he kicked this year.

Owies problem is that he’s a 179cm one paced marking forward with no exposed midfield form.  Doesn’t have the speed, defensive pressure or ground ball gathering ability of small forwards de jour.  Means in an era when speed and spread is prioritised he is seen as a limited contributor. 

[Bowserpower 141]

Would be great, his defensive pressure is elite

[Demonland 70,990]

 

[spirit of norm smith 16,044]

Sounds like he is off to West Coast. Part of the mega deal for the Blues to land pick 3 and try to grab Finn O’Sullivan.  

[No. 31 1,160]

Wishing Owies all the best out West, in many ways a limited footballer but he is an accurate kick for goal and I kind of like it when forwards kick goals 😊

Spargo is a hack, and was playing for Casey last year. If he wasn't contracted, he'd be delisted. I haven't given up on McAdam.

Nah.

I have Spargo in our best 23. He’s a smart footballer with good skills.
