List Changes towards 2023

Carlton came out with 3 list changes today, none of which are that surprising:
[1] Poppy Schaap - 3 games in 2 seasons for 3 goals
[2] Charlotte Hammans - 5 games in 3 seasons.
[3] Jessica Jones - 0 games

Of those, we traded for Hammans, so her results are disappointing. Schaap was a supplementary pick.
Live Long and Prosper!

Surprised Schaap delisted given 3 goals in her 2 games this season even if she did struggle to get into the team until the end of the season.  I mean it's not like we were flooded with goalkickers.

Schaap game with a lot of hope, but delivered not much. Her last 2 games she showed some good signs, but sadly, was not really going to work out long term.

There is always the option to redraft her, but for a small forward, she was very small, and very slow, and had a short kick on her.
Not much scope to grow.

A bit like Luke Parks in the mens. Gave it his all, solid effort, limited room to get better.

Not a bad comparison, although Parks has size, speed, a good leap and no fear.

We have to limil bringing in players who are marginal at best.

Not Carlton related, but list changes nonetheless...

Daisy Pearce is hanging up the boots.
She got her premiership.
Go out on top.

Daisy is very likable, don't follow the AFLW but given the Carlton ladies team struggles I think Daisy would be a handy addition to the staff in some capacity.

I'm not sure what came of it, but at some stage she was signed up for the Geelong mens team as some kind of coach.

Handy addition to anyone who can get her.

Yes, Daisy starts as an assistant coach at Geelong now.  Geelong signed her up as an assistant as part of the AFL’s Women’s Coach Acceleration Program and the deal is that she starts her two year contract upon retirement.

Lucy McEvoy's gorn!

She is joining Sydney as one of their Priority Signings.

I think that Lucy is a player we can ill-afford to lose  >:(

The Filth lost Chloe Molloy who was a potential captain, we've lost a bunch of players and now we've lost McEvoy.

It's hard to see how the AFL thinks this is a positive, for me this sort of development player movement is doing a lot of damage to the AFLW, damage that will take years and years for the competition to recover from.

Why would you bother investing, if we knew what was coming I doubt we would have ever accepted the grants to redeveloped the ground into the defacto AFLW Headquarters?

The Blues' recent instability, losing both coach and head of footy after an external review into the program, is understood to have counted against the club when making the decision to move.
The above is a bit of a throw away line from the media, because the same media were asserting weeks back that one of the reasons Harf got kyboshed was because players wanted a fulltime coach!

This is the old fashioned batting both hands trick, so no matter which leg you get hit on you can claim it was outside the line!

I suspect Lucy's decision was largely influenced by the money on offer and, possibly, choice of playing position.

I don't know about McEvoy, but do not underestimate lifestyle either.

I know a whole bunch of AFLW girls just spent a few weeks up in Sindney extending on from the Mardi Gras to World Pride, coincidentally a friends son was on the same bus!

If you are AFLWLGBEQITx-Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, then outside of a plane flight directly to San Francisco it seems Sindney is global ground zero, which is ironic because NSW is also the area you are more likely to find people praying that they will wake up to find a few pillars of salt!

I really don't know the reasons why McEvoy left and we should be wary of our speculation, however she is another good player who has left the Club. This is of concern.
