    News Casboult finishes up - Thank you Levi

    Just announced on website, retired after not being offered contract. All the right words to honour a warrior who gave if his best other than unfortunately calling him an “impeding” target in attack. That might be the gaffe of all farewell gaffes but we know what they meant! Made the most oif...

    Carlton AFLW Podcasts 2021

    My daughter, her partner and I have decided to do a podcast on the Blues AFLW team. Anyone interested, here is our first effort posted before last night's game. About the only thing I think it proves is my future does not lie in weather forecasting! https://anchor.fm/lizzie-hone/episodes/...

    Quickest players in the draft

    For those that are looking for raw pace, who are the standouts? Obviously JACK PETRUCCELLE is the standout 20m time at the combine, and he is likely to get picked up early to mid draft you would think. Barndon Starcevich actually matched his 20m at the combine and bettered his 5 and 10m times...

    Rucks in the draft

    It seems to me we need to look at another ruckman (or maybe pinch hitting ruckman) in the draft. I think we would all agree that none of them are worth pick 3 and in my view pick 10 is too early also although some might rate Hayes that highly. Hayes I would certainly take at 30 if he were...

    RIP Chris Pavlou

    Sad news that Chris Pavlou who has been ill for some time passed away today. Great clubman and supporter of the past players association as well, from all accounts, a fine player cut down by injury just as he was an emerging star. Condolences to family and friends, of which there are many.

    Rucks for PSD and RD

    Just a list I put together - what do people know about JOSH STOTT? FYI they are rated on the basis of ruck/relief ruck potential - some may be better rated as KPP (eg Staley). Also I haven't prioritised those who are ready now over those who will need time - after all this is the rookie...

    Our finals team 2011

    Okay, so herein lies our problem. We can’t beat the top teams without bringing something to the table that they struggle to counter. The only thing we have in that regard is raw pace. BUT if we go all out for raw pace we sacrifice two things: 1. Genuine key position players; and 2. Strong...

    Nominated rookie

    Any ideas on who will be our nominated rookie and will the club leave that decision until the last minute (which is when, BTW?)? To me, Bray aside, all of the players we picked in the RD could well be ready to play seniors round 1, from an age/physical development point of view - the youngest...

    Dustin Head on AFL site

    I notice the AFL site has posted video of West Adelaide's Dustin Head as part of its potential draftees material. All I know about him is he got a nomination for the U18s best performance of the year for a 5 goal haul from midfield, has overcome a knee op and seems pretty strong overhead...

    Worst Carlton aphabetical side

    Just thinking about the best alphabetical side ever thread, what about the worst. I'll have a crack at a couple - but first some ground rules: 1. You must have seen the guy play - not just rumoured; 2. I'll do one team where the only qualification is you must have played at least one...
