Player Watch #35 Charlie Curnow - Welcome to Sydney

[Voula]

Wait until the boos he gets when he plays Calton at home.

I mentioned the other day that they hold on to grudges. Curnow will be booed until he retires. Normally when a player changes clubs, they are booed the next year. Not Carlton...they don't stop!

Nothing odd about it. If the shoe fits…

Clown answer

Already decided I'm flying up for this one.

I’ve been to many swan v blues.games . I can’t wait

 

[norway blue]

I think they did.

He surprised and he’s a star . Maybe Charlie will meet sleeps drummer.

Our clubs have always traded well. Get it on.

 

[Bandicoot]

I have no idea why we could not get more for Ollie than an F3.
He is a damn good player.

I don't totally disagree but if Oliver and Steele could both be traded for F3s, then the return we got for Ollie doesn't seem that bad.

 

[tombomb]

Another season of Florent playing like he had been since the middle of 2024 and we would've had to attach a first round pick to get off his contract.

Just remember if his lack of pressure becomes a problem, we can always throw Wicks forward to take no marks, lay no tackles, and not get near the footy. But he'll run around really fast.

They have allowed Armartey to do that for 6 seasons !!!!!

I thought Amartey’s tackling and second efforts have been strong for a big fella the past two seasons.

Joel's game of 9 goals had like 6 tackles as well. Averages over 2 per game. Had around 5 with 5+ tackles

I really hope we have a double pronged KPF game plan.

If Amartey stays fit and keeps developing, he can be a star in his own right.

And greater unpredictability will help Curnow have more impact when the ball comes his way.

I just cross my fingers that they don’t often team up together in the Sam Reid

Room for the next few years.

I just cross my fingers that they don’t often team up together in the Sam Reid Room for the next few years.

I love your positivity.
I'm on board too.

Huge pressure on curnow now. Considering what the club gave up ( wanted and much loved players ) he would no doubt feel the pressure to repay the clubs faith and desire to bring him in

Hope he embraces the challenge. Imagine Curnow on the dias after winning the premiership. Will he think himself Swan?

Please no …anything but our S @ C team

This post finally got me excited about Curnow

Both guys who can mark the ball, especially if we don't just bomb it on their heads. Logan on an outer route gives it another dimension as well, especially if we use the width of the field for entries. Paps and Rosas also decent marks. Getting good deep entries will be the key.

He needs to be issued with swans kit and wearing the red. Nothing that looks like navy blue. Would he be sponsored by Adidas. Maybe they have something in Swans colours.
He won't grow on me wearing that singlet.

Maybe they don't have his size?
