Hi Guys,

Long time reader, first time poster, not sure if it has been mentioned on here yet or not but Crippa, Murph & Charlie made an appearance at my local pub in Tassie last night, just thought I would share some things that were said

Crippa confirmed that Jack Martin has nominated that he wants to be at Carlton next year, also said that he was the best junior that he has seen.

All 3 mentioned Papley a few times without being prompted, sounded very promising.

Murph said that the club will persist with SPS down back, this was part of the reason for Daisey not getting a contract along with the returns of Doc and Willow down there.

Regarding Betts Murph said where there's smoke there's fire and would love to have him back, also said that it was the biggest list management mistake the club has made letting him go in the first place.

Crippa said that we have not seen the best out of Marchbank yet and will be a gun, also is excited to see TDK develop as a genuine RUCK.

Was also nice to hear that Weitering was BOG on their recent trip to Mykonos

Murph sounds keen to go on for a few more years to try and chase the fairy tale ending ala Shane Crawford.

Promising times ahead, Go Blues!
Great start, Champ. Super info. Welcome aboard.
 
That is what I thought too, until a recent article saying the trigger had not been activated. Others have posted information saying that both parties have to agree to the extension.
I don't think anyone knows for sure, there has been conflicting information.

This is actually something I know all about.

There's different kinds of triggers that can be agreed to in general AFL player contracts.

Casboult's contract trigger could be either:

A) Automatic. Play 30 games, contract is extended to 2020 (on the same or altered match payments specified in the contract);
B) Club option. Play 30 games, Carlton can elect to extend to 2020. Cas doesn't get a choice;
C) Player option. Play 30 games, Cas can elect to extend to 2020. Carlton doesn't get a choice. Cas can activate the trigger and stay, or not activate it and leave as an UFA; or
D) Both B&C - both Carlton and Casboult must agree. Pretty unlikely to be this one.

Only someone ITK will know the exact terms in Cas's contract.

He met his extension trigger and is contracted for 2020. Of course, he or the club may decide to explore a trade if a desirable one comes up.
I can confirm this. Being very close to Trigger has it's perks.
Yer Welcome. ;)
 
I know this time of year is all about the hype of new talent coming to the club but I’m very bullish about the boys already at the club and their natural growth...I’m predicting big things from Will Setterfield and Liam Stocker in 2020...plus many others but these two especially. Personally I think Setterfield is a jet in the making

Has Diesel ever caught up and had a chat to the umpires that robbed him of a third Brownlow medal?

And what does he think his average possession count would be in today’s game?
I was at the melbourne game at princess park when he got over 40 pocesssions.very uncommon in those days. No brownlow votes and lost brownlow by a vote.my mate who barracks for melbourne never sees opposition players and reckons it was the best performance he has ever seen.

Well yeah, totally agree!
However, this is a rumour thread so it's where we post and talk about who might be coming to the club, or perhaps leaving.
At least I think it's meant to be. :D 746018
