  1. Ryan Houlihan is the 4th of the Houlian Sisters to play AFL according to my Carlton supporting Bro in Law Surely we wouldn't. Gigantic step backwards!
  2. Great Post For mine, analysing snippes from everyone here. 1 - Watts (please oh god please make this happen) 17 - Blease (As above) 19 - Zaharakis / McKernan Depending on who is left over I am not entirely upset by not loading up with talls this draft (aside from Watts) , as I believe that we will have the pick of the best 2 in the land next year, and whilst their names escape me, a couple of videos that were posted a while back show there is some talent available next year also. Of course it depends who is left by our picks. My sole request, don't recruit flankers! Give me genuine midfielders with skill and speed, and genuine key position players, 195 and above. Please
  3. Greem had a great year last year. By my reckoning that would be his first. And we came 16th. And whenever it's got hard in the past, Mr Green, along with Mr Johnstone were the first to go missing. It's 3 year deals such as this which explain why we are at 100% TPP and 16th This with your head, not with your heart,
  4. Why would we offer it? Carlton and Freo have fU$K3D around on the deal holding everyone else up all week. I would act interested, agree, and fax the paperwork over at 2:05 Thats just me. Helps to have pick 1 in the PSD
  5. Of course they will What would you take? 24 or nothing?
  6. Not that it means anything, but he supported Melbourne growing up. He would be handy to keep Rivers company in the 'my body is a lemon' group. I like Riv... don't want him to be lonely
  7. Couldn't agree more It's widely agreed that Melbourne will (hopefully) trade to get an extra first rounmd pick. Why would you then trade one away? I would be extremely uncomfortable trading any picks under 20. I reckon there will still be very good players available at 17 and 19.
  8. My info came from the same sort of position. I asked my friend what he would want? He said late first round draft pick! I said if someone offers that, sign very quickly.
  9. I'm hearing whispers out of Carlton that Andrew Walker is being put up for trade. Don't know what he would warrant
  10. They did it to force the Bulldogs with their earliest pick. Imagine if this system was around when Hawkins, Scarlett ,Blake, Ablett, Ablett, etc were getting drafted.
  11. We have a winner! + He is genuine key position height! None of this 192cm stuff (No offense to the myriad of 192cm players on our list! I am genuinely excited for the first time in a long time. + He knows how to grab the ball. His athletic results are outstanding!~
  12. I've been trying to find some results posted somewhere but can't! Someone help!
  13. I have it on good authority, that he didn't accompany the team on the end of season trip, and has been seen in the Gym almost Daily throughout the last month. This is the sort of commitment that I want to see from a team that finished last with 3 wins. If Stef doesn't turn into a star, it's obvioiusly not going to be through lack of application Can't wait for next year. He should pick himself as CHB in my opinion.
  14. How good would he look in red and blue!!!!! I'm getting excited!
  15. Ahhh.... I have to clean my pants now Thats a happy thought!
  16. Yes at 21 he's clearly displayed he is useless, and has no role to play in our future We don't need players who can run with the Goodes / Cornes of the AFL Bring back Godfrey! When we are good, a slightly older Dunn will be one of the reasons why we are such a good unit, providing us with flexibility.
  17. This is the sort of courage our boys need to show from next year onwards. You know you're going to get the crap beaten out of you, but you put yourself in the contest anyway. My heart goes out to you!
  18. Maybe we could slip the fast ones some cash to run slow at the draft camp. They wont last til 17 and 19 if they are quick!
  19. What is this Carlton Salary Cap? I propose that the league issue the 17th license to VISY so that they can at least operate to some form of salary cap
  20. But you don't have to? 3 way trade Warnock to Carlton Green to Carlton Pick 1 to Fremantle Pick 3 to Melbourne Pick 6 to Melbourne Fremantle can have Carroll also!
  21. I like it, + throw in Brad Green and take Carlton's pick 6 or whatever it is! Would Carlton trade pick 6 for Brad Green and Warnock? We would have 3 6 17 19 We should apply to be on the trade table!
  22. It's been fairly well noted in the west (Not necessarily accurately) that they both want the WA boys first; we could essentially snare a player for nothing without losing our number 1 preference. Could be the even break we have been waiting for!
  23. Heard again on the radio this morning that the rumour is growing that Melbourne is strongly considering trading it's number 1 pick to Fremantle for pick 3, in an attempt to lure Robert Warnock, under the understanding that both Fremantle and West Coast have the preference 1 - Naitanui and 2 - Rich, leaving Melbourne free to choose Watts with pick 3, hence securing Fremantle Naitanui with pick 1. The risk / reward of this trade is unprecedented I believe, and I for one think we should jump in heads first... What do we think?
  24. Very brave... very very brave
  25. Not sure what we'd have 2 give for him, but the rumours are that Port are VERY keen on DAniel Bell, and are competing with the crows for his services. Hopefully both teams don't get a hold of any game vision this year! This is a trade I like the sound of, and I know nothing about adam / greg bentley I can't see us losing
