Autopsy 2026 Rd 10 Blues get new coach bounce over Dogs
It’s smart. Kills media conjecture that he’s auditioning for the job. So if we appoint someone else, he hasn’t been ‘passed over’. -

Universal Love Welcome to Carlton Graham Wright
If ever there was a time to have a CEO who over-indexes on football operations, and probably under-indexes on off-field stuff, it's now. Hasn't everyone been bemoaning the fact that for too long the CFC has forgotten that it's a football club before all else? We'll obviously have to wait and... -

Official Club Stuff Carlton Academy - Next Gen & Father/Son/Daughter Discussion II
I’d love to think so, but I’m not convinced that if you have disposal issues in junior footy, you’re going to mature into not rushing attempts in the vastly quicker and more pressurized AFL arena. Especially given our less than stellar record of player development. -

Prediction POLL ADDED - Who will be our highest rated Rising Star in AFL Season 2026?
Reading between the lines on Davies' recent Q&A, when asked if Dean will play round 1 he said that he doesn't want a situation where he comes in, and then goes back to the VFL. I'd take from that they'd be happy for him to build up to breaking into the senior team during the season, rather than... -

Training 2026 Training - reports, pics etc
I remember way back in the 90's when Peter Daicos invented that football designed to help kids learn how to kick properly (the goalmaster I think), I thought then 'if he has kids, I'm pretty sure they're going to learn how to kick properly'. And here we are. -

List Mgmt. 2025 List Management III 📃
I never saw it myself. And I'm pretty sure that if didn't look like a taller Thor, he wouldn't get a tenth of the attention he does. -

Hot Topic Will Elijah Hollands get another gig at Carlton?
I have faith that Wright and Davies are such pragmatic operators, if they part ways with him it’s because the bad definitely outweighs the good. IMO this club needs a total cultural reset more than it needs talent. -

Official Club Stuff Carlton Academy - Next Gen & Father/Son/Daughter Discussion II
Doesn’t need to bomb. Just needs to tell them he’ll give his initial contract everything, and 100% seek a trade to Carlton at the end of it. -

Analysis 2025 Draft watch
If you know the other team can, and will match, the only reason to bid so early is to make the other team pay. To be honest, that probably should be how everyone plays this. The annoying thing is that we know that’s not the case. Are they pissy we took Chesser? Did we FORCE them to take Owies? -

Official Club Stuff From The President - Robert Priestley
Well it's been four months since anyone posted about our President, which I think is instructive in and of itself. Rob Priestly's been dinged for being boring, vanilla, no charisma, Mr Invisible. (Unlike the previous guy who had all the swagger we usually think a figurehead should have). But... -

Rumour Bluemour Discussion XLI
Do we KNOW Geelong’s offer was simply 3 1st rounders with nothing other than Curnow coming back? I’m not sure we do, and given Geelong’s track record I wouldn’t be surprised if it wasn’t. Anyway I don’t think it’s about winning or losing a trade. It’s about getting a deal that best enables us... -

Rumour Bluemour Discussion XL - ‘Silly Season’ in full swing 😱
If selling Curnow nets us a multiple threat forward line, we’ll be infinitely better off. -

Senior 12. Ben Ainsworth
Lij is pretty much no chance to be at the club next year, so that's the obvious one. Add in the fact that it'd be a miracle if we had all four of the others available at once (injuries) so if fit, BA will play every game, no question.- Words: 49
