Official Club Stuff Carlton Academy - Next Gen & Father/Son/Daughter Discussion II
Hope we keep our 1st for 2027, not to worried if they trade Sydney’s as that will probably float out a long way. Ours might be a decent pick in a good draft and it could also be traded in 27 to 28’ picks to cover some f/s in that draft -

We need a ‘best of’ thread with Ferris B’s greatest posts. Like the bluemour no discussion thread. Funny dude 🤟🏻 -
Rumour Bluemour Discussion XLI
I think we are called slow because our decision making is slow, our runners are probably not far off most teams, we just don’t use the first option enough and our players are hard to spot up as they don’t get enough separation. The right coach and we should be able to get more out of our mids -

It would be a pretty attractive midfield: Dutch kid, Jagga, Cody, Lord, B Camp. Few unknowns there, but it looks to be a great start. Then a focus on tall fwds, I think the team will rebound quickly. The clubs never had a more important draft than this one, we really need to finish last. -
Hot Topic Michael Voss resigns from Carlton. Best of luck Vossy.
Thanks Vossy, we know you tried your best and the players loved you. It’s really hard to win premierships and most can’t achieve the ultimate success. Thanks for doing your best and always keeping your dignity the whole way through. Onwards and upwards -

Think we need to move past Acres, his disposal is just so poor, prefer other players on the wing developing -

This AFL administration is destroying the sport. Top clubs languishing at the bottom of the ladder and they’re sticking the knife in, while developing clubs and shit ones (st kilda), get overs. They that saying a customer(supporter) to keep is 10 times cheaper to keep then find a new one. It’s... -

I think though, the article suggests if Cody is bid on at 4 or 5, we are benefitting from the f/s connection, therefore the AFL won’t give us the bonus pick as we are part of the problem of clubs picks sliding back. If he was bid on at 6, I think we would get the pick. That’s how I interpret... -

I bet in the secret herbs and spices where the AFL will decide who to give compo picks to, one of the rules will be the bottom 5 teams must not have played finals in the previous 3 years. Which would rule us out. When you hear the AFL speak about Carlton it’s always with a bit of distain, but... -

I think the Elijah investigation would be slowing down any potential legal dispute the club may take to the AFL. If there is to be one, I think they find out the fine/penalty first in regards to Elijah, then take them to court. Otherwise in the maky uppy world which is the AFL administration... -

A bold move would be to start using a dice to award picks for the bottom of the ladder Clubs. First role: determines the number of Clubs it affects say a 5 (equals the bottom 5 teams) All names of Clubs then go in a barrel, who ever comes out first gets the first pick. Second equals second... -

Nick Daicos was touted as the number 1 pick all year and has delivered on that, Pies had to pay 1627 points to get him. Harry Dean started the year predicted to go at 12 in the draft, but most said around 7-9 by the end of the year. Ended up pretty early at 3, and we paid 1960 points. It seems... -

Dropping rumours of draft rules changes coming from the AFL to Cal T is pretty much pathetic. You can’t truly plan around rumour. Right now the Swans first rd pick is number 18, that’s before it gets pushed back by free agent compo and so forth. The club would never have planned to lose Curnow... -

Swan’s comments that ‘we’ve knew the changes were coming’ are ridiculous, since we have never known exactly what the change would be. Just Cal T dropping rumours every week about a bunch of possibilities. Really hope that we and other clubs take them to court over this. It’s ridiculous to allow... -
Hot Topic Michael Voss resigns from Carlton. Best of luck Vossy.
I think Voss goes this week or next, they can’t wait til the bye now. I would be happy if the senior coaching spot was rotated through the assistants for the rest of the year, like 5 games each. That way it’s not like we get locked into one person & one of them might actually surprise us. I...
