    Autopsy 2026 Rd 12 Brilliant Blues win a thriller over Cats

    Best win in at least two years. Leaders stood up and our young guys were excellent too. A great mix and a perfect development environment for these young guys. Crippa what a man. You can never count the champ out.

    Coaching Staff New Coach Search

    The panel is well put together in the circumstances. Wright and Davies will be driving the process - setting the criteria and shortlist, running the interviews and ultimately making the final call. Simpson provides an external perspective and recent first hand experience in the hot seat...

    Injury Blue Healers Medical Room 2026

    Really disappointing for him. A tough pill to swallow especially after his great start to the year. He’ll get the surgery and jump into rehab. All going well he should be back early next year. Fortunately ACLs aren’t the career killer they used to be.

    Autopsy 2026 Rd 11 Blues power away from Port to win 2nd game in a row

    A really encouraging display last night. 7 players under 12 games and it didn’t worry us one bit. Jagga was immense as was Dean who blanketed Georgiades. Billy has been a great surprise - looks comfortable at the level and possesses speed and tidy disposal which we need. I’ve got no idea how...

    List Mgmt. 2026 List Management

    You’re right it’s not necessarily the worst thing having the pick 9 slide back in the hypothetical but it’s a slight complication we’ll need to navigate. The other factor to add into the hypothetical is that pick 20 would likely end up being pick 25 when the BS bonus picks come in and if there...

    List Mgmt. 2026 List Management

    Agreed and my understanding is we could only get one of those BS bonus picks if we come last, bid on Cochrane and then take a live pick at 2. Our chances of coming last went with Voss. So reality is we’ll either need to trade someone with currency or our 2027 first to get back into the 2026...

    List Mgmt. 2026 List Management

    This is where the tightening of the draft rules twice in two years really hurts. We’ll get Cody but we’ll need both our first and Sydney’s first to do it. The North second rounder will be watered down by 3-4 BS bonus picks and the usual FA compo. I can’t really see that pick being inside 30. The...

    Autopsy 2026 Rd 10 Blues get new coach bounce over Dogs

    Great to get back on the winners list. Goes without saying but geez we really needed that one. Carroll was outstanding. Ison what an excellent debut - kid is built for the big time. Younger guys all contributed well. Crippa’s last quarter was enormous. Dare I say it but a bit of nourishment...

    Coaching Staff New Coach Search

    I know what you mean but hopefully Davies as a strong head of footy can protect the coach from any outside influences and allow the coach to just get on with his job. Our previous head of footy was so absent he could have been in witness protection so at least the next hire should have the...

    News Nick Austin departs

    Well run football departments have the head of footy, senior coach and list manager on the same page and rowing in the same direction. Hawthorn under Mitchell are a good example. Even when they were getting belted to start, no one deviated from the plan (game style + recruitment strategy) and it...

    Coaching Staff New Coach Search

    We need to run a genuine process and be open minded to all possibilities. Start with a broad list and then allow candidates the opportunity to pitch their vision for how the game will be played and how we want to play over the next 5-10 years. We need a visionary and an innovator. Not a has been...

    Universal Love Welcome to Carlton Graham Wright

    He’s not mucking around and I like it. Out Lloyd. In Davies ✅ Out Voss. In ? Out Austin. In ? Out Agresta. In ? Ushered Charlie out the door for a haul that will be invaluable to the next iteration of Carlton moving forward ✅

    Hot Topic Michael Voss resigns from Carlton. Best of luck Vossy.

    Vossy goes out as he came in - with integrity and as a leader. We all know he has deficiencies as a coach but he gave it his absolute all and represented the club well. Stood up for our people and fought the fight when others wouldn’t. The time is right for him to move on but I’m glad he’s doing...

    Autopsy 2026 Rd 9 Blues go down after scaring reigning premiers

    First half was virtually non competitive but the second half was the best footy we’ve played all year. Crippa and H were great coming off tough weeks. Hayward played his best game for the club. Thought this might have been Jagga’s best game too when you consider the opposition. At least we can...

    Official Club Stuff Carlton Academy - Next Gen & Father/Son/Daughter Discussion II

    I suspect Ralphy hasn’t thought it through properly. If the rules operate in a way where Richmond can come last, bid on Dougie, take HVH and get the bonus pick, but we can’t in the exact same scenario, then we have to challenge by all available means. The whole logic of these stupid bonus picks...
