Analysis 2017 List Management Discussion - Part 3

[TheKing101]

Smh Why did we cut Boeky! finally starting to show something. BS

 

[Das2Blue]

Have to hand it to Soapy V he was right on the number of delistings...

we have been ruthless

how many spot's are open now ?

 

[LanceRomance]

how many spot's are open now ?

7 I think not inc rookies

 

[JuniorWatch]

Still rushes his kicks a bit, and hasn't really shown any ball-winning ability through midfield.

A WYSIWYG small defender.

Come again?
Not everyone has to be able to go into the midfield.
Looks like a potentially really good shut down small def

 

[Big Taye]

Nope. AA defender who would be a handy mid. Not a great contested ball player. We have a star in his best position. Leave him there

Welcome to the new season of "Everyone's A Midfielder!" starring the entire cast of the Carlton Football Club! You're a midfielder and you're a midfielder and you're a midfielder...............

I think you mean, Welcome to the new season of "Everyone's A Defender"
maybe we should move Levi into defence as well, he definitely kicks like a defender.
I once thought the game was actually won in the middle

 

[footyfan1978]

Does this mean Graham has survived? If so, kinda happy for him.

Always thought Graham far more likely to survive than Boeky once Gibbs was traded.
But he going to have to step things up to remain beyond this one.

 

[Pinnell]

Boekhurst out makes me think Hartung in. I don't like it.

 

[Robertio]

So you lucky buggers have got to experience us come out of the dark ages before.

Lucky old buggers.
Jealous!

Yep, went through the Barassi rebuild and now the Bolton & SOS rebuild. Can tell you i'm more excited with this one.

 

[Kramer1]

End of a gory arse era.

 

[footyfan1978]

End of a glorious era.

Thanks Rogers and Hughes. Was nice knowing ya.


NOT!!!!!

 

[footyfan1978]

Yep, went through the Barrassi rebuild and now the Bolton rebuild. Can tell you i'm more excited with this one.

WOw, Wow, Wow.
NOW I am excited!!!!

 

[Aphrodite]

how many spot's are open now ?

As of today we have 33 senior listed players and 3 rookies.

 

[HARKER]

That's surprising.

Why the urge to move on contracted players?
I haven't seen us do that before and 2 of them: Smedts & Palmer.

Reckon we'll see some senior rookies coming through or are we going to rookie some that we've taken off the main list? Interesting.

 

[footyfan1978]

Smh Why did we cut Boeky! finally starting to show something. BS

A lot here were saying same of Watson when I wanted him cut.
You just got to cut those guys that show 70% crap and the odd game or two of okness towards end of year in season junk time.

 

[bluekidjoe]

Now would be a perfect opportunity for barass70, Marc Shmurf 3 or any other of the whispering collective to chime in with a bit of DFA mail. Hartung, Mullet, Lennon, etc?

Guessing 4 in the draft and 3 rookies

 

[footyfan1978]

I may have missed something. Has Palmer been retained or let go to play out in WAFL ?
Any official word?

 

[Soapy V]

Boekhorst rather than Graham? Somebody lost their damn mind.

Boekhorst proved at the end of the season that he has at the very least a borderline AFL game. Graham has consistently demonstrated that he's a very good VFL player but is nowhere good enough to be considered a contributor at the AFL level.

If its about work rate then both should have been cut. Graham's output isn't close to sufficient when factoring in how vanilla he is.

Bewildering.

Nope although I'm not sure Graham will make it. At least he works both ways and will put his head over the ball and play to team instructions. When we have a list desperate for outside run and speed and still delist Boekhurst that says it all.

 

[Robbo's my hero]

Looking forward to the melts on here concerning DFAs.

Smedts was not offered a contract for next year according to Carlton. Looks like a salary dump.

 

[Soapy V]

We can now move on

 

[Aphrodite]

I may have missed something. Has Palmer been retained or let go to play out in WAFL ?
Any official word?

Delisted.

 

[passmark]

Well.
I'd take Suban and Hartung ahead of any of those delisted players.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

I may have missed something. Has Palmer been retained or let go to play out in WAFL ?
Any official word?

Yes. It was made official.

http://www.carltonfc.com.au/news/2017-10-31/blues-continue-list-changes

The Club has now made 13 changes to its playing list since the end of the 2017 season, with Bryce Gibbs departing for Adelaide and Dennis Armfield, Daniel Gorringe and Matthew Korcheck announcing their retirements. Smedts, White, Boekhorst as well as Rhys Palmer, Dylan Buckley, Kristian Jaksch, Ciaran Sheehan, Liam Sumner and Andrew Gallucci have also been delisted.

 

[Soapy V]

I would prefer Mullett, B.Kennedy, Hartung, K.Stewart even R.Harwood before Shaw.

I don't want any. Let's head to the draft
