Turner

brayshaw has said on poddy he's on track and hibbo surely is considering idek what he's missing with (possibly just load management?)

we now have three spots available with Deakyn Smith and Farmer training on and the newly opened up Hore spot, chances r we save at least one for a KyleDunkley-esque who's the best 19yo we missed in the draft pool for the Mid season draft

SSP is different, yes freo can offer him a deal and he could sign it but they likely would have invited him to train if they had any firm interest

maybe when we get to round 6 and tmac hasnt broken into the side yet they'll swing him back there?

where was melky playing? seeing reports on where everyone else has moved to and currently dont see where he's fitting in. also anyone got a clue if he was blue or white?

name em

brayshaw said on poddy that he should be good to go for AAMI series/round 1 no issues also hibbo? surelyyyy gets in ahead of Smith imo

Marty Hore ACL confirmed ???? can't get any luck this man, hopefully they give him a gig at seasons end and give him a chance to get himself right coz i really like what he offers https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/852887/hore-suffers-acl-injury my thought process and its an unpopular one which i dont think i like but the club might consider, Cal Moore is probably the front runner for Carltons 1 SSP spot due to Curnow's injuries right, so does OMac get a last resort chance as a relatively like-for-like mature defensive option who knows the club in the knowledge that he's purely a depth player and is unlikely to be called upon? Other recently delisted similar options could be: Sam Skinner -swingman (delisted by BL training at NM) Hugh Goddard/Harry Macreadie (blues) Majak? Jono Marsh (StK) Lewis Jetta Suckling

this was confirmed in the afl.com.au report hopefully lookalike is the only thing they have in common and maybe speed? not ideal for baker as a 4th year player with basically a straight shot at the wing possie in the snr's to be in the 'B' side. i hope it doesn't take him 15 weeks to crack a game this year but i get the feeling he's gonna be a close but not quite type with Hunt's move to HB to free up Salo/Riv to move up the ground combined with the jacko/tmac wing possibility too

geez apologies i just remember seeing it in the background of a flick i scrolled past on some socials didn't exactly stop for a forensic analysis

gawny regularly stands up late in games and takes huge "come with me if you want to win" marks and is regularly seen working his [censored] off to get deep in defence and play a role for the team and work hard to cover the ground lay tackles etc. + he is relatable and personable and obviously gets along and is approachable to all the squad. also time and time again we have seen him look stern and confront the group before gathering with the coach when we're playing [censored]. and realistically thats all traits of good leadership and captain material imo

only one more year at best SONS! if the goody rumour mill is to be believed

if you exclude may who is obviously a strong leader and got past his injuries to play some seriously good footy in 20 then you need to have a next in behind him and from my POV i can't see who that is. lever's form whilst it improved was still patchy and not near what we gave up for him.

in 2020 we rolled with a flat Captain/VC set up with no additional support which is quite a ballsy move and is only replicated by Richmond (a side with 22 leaders as they'll tell u) and port. with the whispers around goody and yze/chocco going forward and into '22 i think this year we will see a return to a structured leadership group set up with 2/3 moving into those positions. Also on the Gus and Gawny poddy this week brayshaw appeared to let slip that lingerz (langdon) was a member of this leadership group. is that the impression everyone else got too? and who else do we see making that step up. for mine its Capt: Gawn VC: Viney L'ship Group: May, Langdon, Melky and my other smokey which i would see as a bad idea at this stage but not opposed to going forward is Trac/Lever. i think both need another season of footy based focussed before they move in

why would we delist neitschke and re-rookie again? he can just remain as a rookie for another 2 years now that he's on that list. also that means ur confident in jsmith and mbrown getting new deals im intrigued please tell us more xx

he's got the number 46 on his back but thats probably just because the club has jumpers with numbers for training and it fits him, not much to read into, as i recall saad training in 16 at carlton and now he's actually 42 but thats not to say he wont make the list. i think he will

doesnt push ahead of Oliver/Viney/Brayshaw/Harmes/Trac in our starting side and you'd think sparrow/jordon will get opportunities ahead of him too and jones to get to 300. doesn't really do enough anywhere else on the ground to justify selection when we are already heavy on bullocking tacklers who can't kick

retired Nathan Jones Nev Jetta delisted Kade Chandler (A) Toby Bedford Alex Neal-Bullen Aaron vandenBerg Aaron Nietschke (A) Mitch Brown (A) Joel Smith Oskar Baker keeping in mind list sizes shrink again this year too

instagram, he can just go dm anyone doesn't even have to follow them

my mates sister copped them, these aren't allegations theyre facts

we have two spots free atm anyway so we can still take a spot. and chances are his entire salary will be paid outside the cap as an A rookie and with match bonuses and you'd say given where we r at in the off-season and as a club he isn't likely to hit too many of those next year. and if you have injuries you'd be able to replace them regardless of how full your list is in pre-season

i feel like theres no reason not to fill out your list, if hes 44th man then who cares its one season, roll the dice and if after 12 months it hasn't worked out its no loss but nothing ventured nothing gained

Petty Hore (both best 22 if fit i believe) Melksham (step up or step out) Bedford (deserves a consistent run) Jordon (hype but is it mislead)

so if smith is being touted for the other spot... why is he not training on? makes zero sense

? ? ? ? would u like some chips with that salt?
