ps we should have a red hot crack at the Bont. RFA.

Cam Guthrie is UFA.

Hewett and Parker at the Swans - both RFA.

Finals, then 4 in a row!

I would have added with a cheap looking Homer Simpson tatt too.....you have to be tough to rock some of the child like artwork he has on his body, ditto Josh Bruce...both must have gone to the bloke in the pub carpark to get those done..
I think they do them themselves. I know Castagna from Rich does his own.
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

Bont wont go anywhere, wouldn't waste one iota of time. All the others most definitely.

I reckon we should go after Ben McKay. ;D
Stick him alongside Harry in the forward line (in Harry's jumper...no-one will know the difference.) ;)
He can run decoy with the opposition number 1 defender while the real Harry runs riot in Ben's jumper.

(It will work...I've even confused myself ::) )

Not sure if this is been mentioned yet in the thread but i just heard that Teague in his after match presser said matched up Cunningham to play as a defensive forward on 1.95cm Lever as he said he thought Cunningham could match him in the air.

So in already light midfield he takes one of our main runners in Cunningham out and thinks its a good idea to use him defensively.

Then he said when he went down they decided to use Owies. Have you ever heard of such stupidity. 

I'm really starting to wonder if Teague is the man we need at the moment.

Seriously some posters are desperate and clueless
Why do you think they would want to come to Carlton
And how about we actually pick more decent kids and development
Then there is the salary cap with little wriggle room

I did hear that and thought it was a very strange move, no way could Cuningham match Lever in the air and Owies would have no hope either and I remember Lever taking a mark or two easily over Owies.
I would have shifted Parks onto Lever who was having a shocker down back and just told him  to spoil and take Lever out of the play and try and get a win from a loss in that matchup.

Reckon we're one gun mid away from getting it together - had hoped it would be Dow or Setterfield.

Kemp? As a Kouta type utility/mid? Maybe.

Hunter would have been good, ditto Oliver albeit different players.

Merrett is certainly something we lack - zippy, finds the pill, bit of an accumulator too, gets it inside 50 quickly - perfect for Charlie and Harry.

Not sure he goes missing too often - see below, consistent numbers this year - and stacks up well statistically with Josh Kelly.

According to Champion Data we have the second
Worst midfield
One guy won’t fix it

Merrett will want big dollars, think Matthew Lloyd said he is worth 850k a season....
Bont...no hope, will be a Dog for life.
Cam Guthrie loves the Cats and has his brother on the list also which gives the Cats some leverage so I'd say no hope there either and I reckon the AA Guthrie is worth more than Merrett.
Luke Parker...bit late, see Hannebury.
Hewitt...handy but no star.

I'd look at Cerra  from Freo, Sholl from the Crows, Brander, Duggan from WC, and I'd throw some money at Caddy, Castagna  from Richmond..

Where's laj?

I need him to fill me in on Murphy, Plowman, Jones and SPS and how they've been playing. I'm sure they're killing it...
Drugs are bad, mmmkay...

You don't know that for fact. 
We can assume that’s the case surely
Williams 850000
Martin 600000
McGovern 700000
Saad 500000 plus
Cripps 800000
Curnow 600000
The added problem is McKay
He is on  around 400000
He will be getting close to double that next yearbecause his contract is up
In relation to the first three names we are not getting bang for the buck of course Charlie has been injured
WC and Freo don’t have much wriggle room either
Freo in particular over pay some of their so called stars
Rory Lobbe
