I thought this was now against the rules? O'Brien does this constantly and appears to be getting away with it. Just seeking clarification on the rule.

Okay guys this is how it is going to work. Each poster will submit their team along with a paragraph or two outlining the strengths and various strategies that could be used to make their team function. Once the teams have been posted each poster will rank the teams from 1-12, excluding their...

Since the Pick 18 thread has gone over it's limit I will open the 2010 Official Draft Day Thread. Good luck to Wayne Hughes and the Carlton recruiting team tonight, give us some beauties for the future! All draft discussion can stay in here. Only 14 minutes to go. :thumbsu:

We can all take comfort in the fact that Collingwood didn't actually win. The good news is we can watch them fail next week. Collingwood = EPIC FAIL

No more words needed, just shattered. Express your sadness in here.

It's probably nothing but I just wanted to pass on the information that I received from a brother of one of the senior players. Apparently alot of the senior group are very upset about the treatment of Brad Fisher considering he was dropped after playing only 1 game where he had limited...

Surely this bloke deserves his own thread, kicked 6 tonight and was terrific. Very quick, great tackler and marker for his size and gives his all to the contest. He has kicked 30 goals from 16 games this year which is a fantasic effort and a great return for a small forward. He is often...

I didn't know whether to list this as 'rumour' or 'news' but I suppose when it comes down to it the reporter is just speculating. Travis Boak is out of contract at the end of the year and a few clubs are said to be interested, including Carlton. Should we pursue him? I think Boak is a good...

After much criticism mainly by opposition supporters, media and some of our own on this board about selecting a midfielder in Lucas over a KPP in the mould of Talia our recruiters have really been justified in their selection. After two great years of under 18 appearances for WA he fell to...

Coach: Blueboys7 Team FB: D.Mundy D.Morris D.Fletcher HB: A.Mackie D.Petrie S.Goodwin C: B.Stanton M. Boyd B.Cousins HF: P.Chapman T.Cloke L.Davis F: B.Burton C.Mooney B.Johnson R: H.McIntosh C.Judd S.Black I: J.Brennan J.Akermanis M.McVeigh A.Carrazzo E: R.Gray J.Blake C.Jones...

Pretty bored atm so I thought we could go over some 'experiments' that the coaching staff could employ over the course of the practice games or what you would like to see. Starting with the obvious one. 1. FWD 50 compadibility - trial Henderson and Kruezer in the fwd line with Yarran...

This is a needs based phantom draft and my first shot at compiling one so go easy on the negative feed back ;) I have tried my best to go with club needs whilst also taking the best available player where appropriate. I hope you enjoy and look forward to your feedback. FIRST ROUND 1...

Heard this rumour from a friend. Before you start the whole joke about sources, I am making this known purely a rumour. Bradshaw is said to be very angry with the Lions for putting him forward in the deal and does not want to play for them next year. It is believed he will retire and the...

Now that we are back into the first round we are in need of a discussion of players we should target. Should we go tall with the likes of Butcher, Talia, Panos possibly being around the mark? Or should we go for another classy midfielder rather than reaching for a tall?

I apologise for intruding onto your board but I just wish to pose the question: Are you angry at the club for trading Bradshaw? I believe Bradshaw to be one of your most loved players both on and off the field and I feel he should have the opportunity to play out his career at Brisbane. He...

It is time to move Kruezer up forward and take a punt by bringing in one of Jacobs or Warnock. We were again too predictable going forward and at times Adelaide were playing two players on Fev and then that hurt us the other way as we were out numbered in the forward 50. Granted Betts and...

This kids improvement this year has been outstanding and he deserves his own thread. His marking is improving (excluding the collingwood game) with some courageous efforts tonight and his gut running and speed is amazing for a big man. With his ruckwork getting better every week he is...

Obviously we need to address our forward line, where we are one dimensional and too predictable. As we look like getting a later pick in the draft this year we are unlikely to get a real quality forward (hopefully we get lucky). So we may need to turn to the draft table. I have been thinking...

Got this from another board and thought it was worth doing! Our best win: Our worst loss: The single most exciting moment of the season so far: The single worst moment of the season so far: We can't do without: Could do more: Mr Consistent: Can’t cement a spot: The player who I'm always...

Any one else having issues? ATM i have two Bartel's, L.Anthony in the ruck, two Hogan's, Ottens up forward. I can then go to substitute all players and then fit a team of: F Hodge Goddard Fisher C.Cornes Raines Houlihan Hill Broughton Petrenko M Ablett Bartel Judd Selwood Gibbs Rich...

We all know what a great SC option he has been for some time, but is he worth the price this year? With the option of hille at 473,000 and Cox who seems to have niggling injuries i just have a question mark over his head. Obviously if he performs his price is justified but is he going to...

Anyone else just been really impressed with his last few games? I was begining to have my doubts about him but he has showed the poise and supperior kicking skills that we drafted him for. He had 36 touches last night at 80% eff. and showed us what he is capable of. Looking forward to a big...

Unfortunately i got stuck at the ponsford stand end against collingwood with there cheer squad. Dont want that to be a repeat against essendon. So which end will our cheer squad be? does anyone know for sure? Thanks in advance.

Hey guys just wondering what end the carlton cheer squad will be at the carlton vs scum game? Dont want to get stuck at their end, couldnt stand it. Cheers.

Hey guys, Just wondering what you think of Jared Brennan's future at the club holds? What position is he playing? Where should he play? I just have noticed him for a while and are just waiting for him to be more consistant. Thoughts? sorry if this topic has been done to death i was just...

Im not sure if this has been done but im sure there has been talk about it sorry if it has been done to death but i was just interested to see where you think he plays his best footy.

It seems to me that keeping JK would have been good for us granted we may not have got Judd but i think the key to having a good side is too good KPP. If we kept JK and then drafted another KPP player early we would have a stronger and young forward line. Hawthorn did a similar thing...

Looking at our list of players that haven't really shown us what they have got is actually pretty exciting. Last year i was going through our list and thinking that we do not have that much apart from the obvious top draft picks. But looking through now bower is showing a lot, jamison what a...
