Thought this thread was about Carlton for a second

With Jonesy pretty sure to retire at the end of next year, our next most experienced player is Melksham with 168 games! gives a good indication of the lack of senior experience in the team

Centre square: Gawn, Oliver, Viney, Brayshaw (rotation, Harmes, Trac, Milkshake) Wings: Langdon, Salem, (back-up: Baker, KK - hopefully he can make a come back) a pretty good group imo but we need depth/more outside talent

easily fixed. pre-season camp anyone??!?

not sure the adelaide teams would go for these trades mate!! jenkins would be on 600K+, rubbish soft player too stretch would be close to delisting unfortunately

Pert coming in would want a financial loss so he has something to fix. so he'll make sure it looks bad. and then he'll seem like a genius when its better next year. easy to manipulate the numbers from one FY to the next

please state if any of the above is fact as it is written as such (aside from the murmurs bit)

we regularly fielded the youngest list of the round. our core group that are quality are 22-25 Gawn and Clarry are stars and hopefully more will join stay positive, we will be back

WOW - people falling for this [censored]'s tricks! he says vague BS to start people panicing and thinking up what could be wrong. he is often found to be incorrect and there are zero consequences when it happens. either say something concrete Barrett or [censored] off!

Sweet Mother of god

what can the club do? the decision has nothing to do with us aside from us being next in line in the draft

if he is not motivated enough, the LG, coaches and club need to help here. if he is not committed enough that would be dissapointing but I doubt this is case. he has best mates at the club and comes from a strong football family. he seems driven to me. I suspect a young player lost confidence when the wheels of the team fell off. its amazing how bad players can look when a team has lost confidence to me he battled through the season and still played some good games - still 5th in the demonland POTY. but obviously looked poor at time

The chances of a player being picked at pick 8 or 9 being as good as Gus are slim. 50-50 chance to get a player that will play 100 games even I'm backing Gus in 100%. he is still learning, and will come back hard next year. only 23yo. played 80 games so he is in the sweet spot over the next 5 years. came 4th in the BnF and 3rd in brownlow last year after missing the first few games! he is a beauty who had a poor year

Surprised that jimmy only got 2 AAs despite 4 BnFs and Brownlow. More quality rucks in the 90s I guess well done Max. You are a bloody champ

I was going to start a Billy Longer thread but was worried about the abuse I might cop but now we have a Levi thread I might go for it! haha

completely agree, but who?? they dont grow on trees, havent heard of many looking for a trade play Carlisle fwd? but he is a [censored]

we do need talls who can stay on the park. Pedo would have played >15 games this year for us. Petty and O Mac etc etc all played fwd. So maybe they reckon he can fwd. or if we see Petty as a fwd now, who do we have to cover for our best 3 tall backs? pretty much no-one aside from O Mac, so I reckon we need cover. Our 2nd round pick no way though. A late 2nd rounder maybe

can understand him turning down extra cash as he'd be on $1mil per year but how could you chose to play in front on 8K people each week? having no supporters would suck

Last time we had a pick in the top 5 we got Oliver so I’ll back in the current list management to make right call. Oliver was not expected to go that high at all

it's fun to say 'Splitting the Pick' with an NZ accent go on, try it!

78 games - 138 goals thanks Jeffy. best of luck Dec

so nothing but BS rumours on Trac leaving then? good.

After we were gifted pick 3 for Chip I don't think we can complain about handouts to GC

Moving from 2 to 3 could the difference between Jono O’Rourke and Lochy Plowman!

and every other player in the top 10 is in the squad. Oliver has been good but his disposal and defensive side of his game have gone down from last year. also kicked the fewest goals in that list
