Off topic, but I once forgot my bike lock when going to open training, and the staff at the club let me store my bike somewhere safe. Absolutely legendary behaviour from them.

Wait? That staff member wasn’t Laurence Angwin was it??
 
Cowen shows some and Newman, Hewitt, then daylight.

Even some physical contact when spoiling wouldn't go astray, I feel we are a very "bruise free" team to play against.
It's time Weiters learns to give corkies instead of taking them. Crippa had a bit of physicallity about him, but that seemed to reign in a bit when he was chances at the Brownlow.

Big issue we have is, that anytime a Carlton player does something awkward we're hit with the MRP.

Think they'd be inclined to move a future pick instead of 7 as they need it for Uwland and Patterson.

Although I don't mind getting 6 and an extra first for 9 somehow. Issue is getting the players to all want to come to us. More variables = less chance of it happening.

So Charlie "unhappy". Sydney have sold the vision to Charlie but don't wanna trade a player of worth.

What lopsided universe have we hit in the AFL at the moment. Players being paid twice their worth to leave.. clubs wooing players still on contract thinking they don't have to reciprocate with a fair offer. The drive to keep AFL in peoples thoughts 24/7, even with makety up stuff being allowed, the $$$$$. It's all becoming a bit ridiculous and the AFL is dropping the ball on doing their job in properly administering things on the game.
 
Walter & pick 6 which ends up.pick 10 for.Curnow is exactly the deal we should not be doing why? No other team would do it
Because at best it is 2 "B" graders for the 2nd best forward of the last 5 years who can deliver a premiership.

Stand back, look at the deal and appreciate it guarantees GC everything & Carlton Nothing
 
Man, these player managers leaking shit to the media to try and push clubs around is disgusting. Not new, sure. But so grubby and transparent. I doubt the truth of some of it as well.

Hope the club digs its heels in and it backfires on the player and management something chronic.

Any contract could be his last.

If a 21yo's next contract could be their last (ignoring major injury), then they probably don't deserve more than two years...
 
who cares as long as he produces on the field?

We need to move past the we can only have 36 or so nice guys.... how's that gone for us?
Merrewt is an absolute star, never seen him give up or let his team down yet old mate doesn't want him becuase someone said he's mean?

hahaha some of the funny stuff i hear
 
Too many flaws in his game IMO. Would want to be on minimum chips as well.

If say PTA can stump up some extra years and a good trade, hopefully we can take it.
I wouldn't sweat over an extra 50-100k for jesse incentivised on a short contract because we have cap space. I just would not make him too.comfortable

That's the point
If we're offering two years
He'd like to try for three with us or elsewhere
Fair enough from him and the club
If he gets three he probably goes
Otherwise he stays for two

Would love to know who Charlie’s beef is with if not Voss. List management? Sports science? Captain Carlton?

We worried about him being accident prone and wouldn't let him ride in the Carlton Hovercraft...
