Given the lack of any announcement from CFC, I guess it means that once again they are not prepared to give Harry Lemmey a try out at AFL level. If so disappointing!

Agree, If I was Lemmey Id want out and try my luck at Port Adelaide back in SA who are looking for tall forwards to support Georgiades.
Yes agree, or go out at CFC training and make a statement by throwing his weight around.

Some of Carlton VFL appear somewhat shy when it comes to laying effective tackles.
Perhaps a full on practice tackling session could also be the go for our seniors. (Then up the numbers against the Pies next week, making our tackles stick!). What about it Vossy?
Boyd playing on a wing would be one selection for me. He is combative and can deliver to forwards. Against North we allowed them to run in numbers and beat us up around the ball. Ben Campo in the middle also if coaches are brave enough!
Will be interesting to see selections. Hopefully not just Evans back in!
Yep, we are all shattered at how the Blues are performing this year, but no point in mass depression or hysteria! Hopefully Voss & Co will use the rest of season 2025 to get games into the young talent waiting for their chance, incl. Ben Campo., O'Farrell, Moir, Flynn Young etc
Pittonet, not the smartest footballer going around. He highlights our problem. Yes we have some A class, but too many B class players. Time to start trying out those recruits who are showing promise in the VFL team, Vossy.
Harry is also one forward who's been doing some leading in recent games. Particularly it seems when Cooper Lord or Jordan Boyd have the ball and are steaming towards the forward line. Did you see the bullet like pass that Boyd hit Harry with against Sydney Swans ?......wow!.....more needed!
No I wouldn't be trading out Harry McKay. Improve our drafting, no more Francis Evans types recruiters (sorry Frankie!). Importantly set the club up to draft in later this year two apparently top father sons selections plus one or more of our promising Next Generation Academies recruits.
Cincotta will come back in a few weeks and once in won't go out of the team i think. Has heels, strong in the contest, makes good decisions, can defend, is relatively no nonsense and will pop up for goals. Ultimately we have too many non performers getting a game, and too many out to really do any damage. I think we are better off getting time into players to find out what their worth is, gear up for next season. Get docherty back in the ones. I know he hasn't played well this season, but we need to work out if he's going to come good and vfl is just too much of a step down.
. Yes Thry, looking like a season where we need to try various players and see if they have the "skills under pressure" . Eg. Moir, Lemony, Wilson, O'keef etc, plus manage the young bodied Silvagni boys carefully. Last night we had several boys with potential in "learning the game" like White and Carol. Liked Lord's game, good pick up and has the skill level IMO

ps: No need to waste time and emotion talking about Evans!!!. Back to the twos
