So according to this we have bowed out. Why would we do that so early? Don't know much about Membrey, but I like what I'm reading ... a prolific goal kicker who can play through the middle. We could be kicking ourselves in a year or two for not pursuing him, so if he is as good as people say, maybe we should try to find a way to do the deal.

I believe we are confident on Jones and won't bother with Membrey. People have to remember there's only 6 forward spots up for grabs, 1 or 2 of those goes to a player who also runs through the midfield. We've already got Menz, Lachie & Levi locked into that forward line with Jones almost a done deal.

Most likely because we don't have the currency to bring him in after acquiring our other trade targets (Jaksch, Jones). Probably like him but realise we just won't be able to get it done since the Jaksch trade will go right down to the wire and we won't know what picks we have left to get him.

So EQ thinks Jaksch hasn't nominated us yet.
Does suggest that 3 way trade with Hawthorn though again.

I like the look of Membrey, but surely you are all forgetting our yearly mature age SANFL project. This year will be Brett Eddy.

Part of a deal with the Dogs to get Jones and possibly Tutt for a reasonable price?
Only get the guys in who want to play for Carlton. Blokes who want to play games can go and get stuffed.

Probably this ...
Because it's our new policy to only trade for players who have worn this jumper.
Do remember all the draft profiles saying he was a top field kick
You say it like we just bowed cause we cbf...im sure the team has looked at him as an option and decided hes not for us. Again, we have jones, watson, menzel, walker and possibly jaksch in his position.
Geez, if this comes off and we bring in Jones and Jaksch, each end of the ground becomes solid. Then hit up draft for mids and runners!
If that's true, then so be it. As I said, I don't much about him except he has kicked quite a few at the lower level and is said to be similar to Darling. Unless he is deemed to be not good enough, I thought it may be better not to bow out of anything at the moment as this some deals may fall over.

veeeery sick of the homesickness drama
probably have people who arent for this, but if somebody only wants to come to carlton to get back to victorian football, i wouldnt want them in my team
need that heart and sacrifice and drive and desire to want to put that guernsey on and be proud
i also second the motion we go for membrey, will be an absolute class act when he gets on the field
just becuase tutt may want to come, why does that mean we shoud reshuffle our other trades to accomidate :| same as jones, not too big of a fan and have seen him play enough to see he is not our answer
and queue the hate...
