In the third qtr, 6 players laid 1 tackle each. 17 players didnt lay a tackle. EOS.
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

Jack Reiwoldt scathing of Harry and also suggesting Cody Walker will be considering Richmond and planting a seed of doubt by talking about it on Fox.

I just read that.

Too bad there is no scope for him to change his mind now.

The time to make that call was last year. It was made. The end.

Tigers are free to bid on him, and they should IMO, but if we want him, we get him.

You would think a paid commentator would know the draft rules.
2012 HAPPENED!!!!!!!

Not exactly.
I have very little faith in most of the media. Examples like this are all too common.
But hey, it gets a headline. Gets half the people jumping at shadows.
Gives his own team a pump up in the process.

The quality of all things AFL seem to be slipping.

Which commentators are the modern day equivalent of Bruce and Dennis?
All these 'special comments' people nowadays are leaning more on the 'special' side of the spectrum.
No need for facts.
No need for logic.

Couldn't Cody change his mind still?

Nope.

All clubs and players need to nominate (i think its) 12 months in advance.

There was an article specifically about Walker when he made the call saying the decision needed to be made by [this date] and tigers were left disappointed that they lost the right to him.

There is talk he can retract father/son/ NGA nomination up until draft nominations close so he would enter the draft as a free player with no ties to either Carlton or Richmond ..is that true?

Crippa has been cited… might not be a bad time for the skipper to have a breather.

The bigger question is, if it was the case he wished to withdraw his nomination would be....
 why?
What would he have seen that caused him to change his mind.
(I'll just add that he seemed pretty happy and comfortable in the VFL yesterday.)

If he did wish to go though the draft it could turn out not too bad for us.
We're committed to him and as it turns out we will pay a high price.
He's an exceptional talent.
But were he to change his mind we'd have a pretty fair draft hand.
I posted yesterday we should do whatever it takes to get him, but I'm not sure I'd feel the same if he was a reluctant starter.

Hewett in for Cripps at the moment is probably a fair swap...and make Hewett captain for the day. :D

I believe he can accept an early guilty plea and pay a 1k fine.
