Are you talking about the same Crameri who has goal kicking averages of 0.5 a game for 2017, N/A for 2016, 1.8 for 2015 and 1.7 for 2014? The same Crameri that's played 2 games in the last 2 years? The same Crameri who had his best year in 2014 as best I can tell and that was about 37 goals which is only 3 more than Levi last year? The same Crameri who's 10cm shorter than Casboult so I dare say won't be as good a relief ruckman? The same Crameri who is 29 and delisted and maybe at best has 2 years of sub par performance left in him and would be taking the spot of a Silvagni, McKay, or Kerr (or even Casboult) is he were to be played on field? Just wanted to make sure we're talking about the same guy here...
Obviously miss Ragnor Armfield and wanted another Viking on the list

It's happening!
also noted in that article that Boekhorst and O'Shea are there too (which most have picked up already from various carlton videos of late)
Interesting. Those of you that were keen on O'Shea, Boeky and Matt Shaw might have some hope of them getting on rookie list or even a 5th or 6th pick of ours late in draft.
Not fussed if they train to get a chance but would still not be surprised none or only one got on the rookie list in about 12 days time.
So sounds like Sumner isn't there
That's what I wanted to know when I read that article there was some commentary of some off-season stuff that saw him gone? Is that it?
Defence is set and we have been working on our defensive structures. Midfield is developing (has some elite talent) which will make a massive difference to our goal scoring ability. McKay Kerr Silvagni are all talented and our improving midfield will kick a lot of goals. We aren't far away. All Crameri would do is fill a hole that could be used for much better developing talent. Patience
If we were to take one of O'Shea, Boeky or Shaw, I'd take Boekhorst anyday.

A winning score can be 1 goal to Nil
I don't want any but I feel as though Bolts and SOS want to have a few more 25 year old type players whilst the kids develop. In reality that are just stop gaps
There must be a good reason for it, but I have little idea what that idea may be.
If all back-men were to remain back-men, we'd be covered in the senior team with Jones, Marchbank & Weitering.
Our NB back-line could then look like:
ASilvagni Rowe Macreadie
O'Shea Glass-McCasker Mullett
Doesn't make sense on face value, effectively having 8 KPD's in the squad, even if it is only for one year.

Much easier to regain fitness than it is to build it...
I am sure they have their reasons. As I said in another post they may just feel we need a few more mature 25 year old types to help whilst the kids develop. Could also be that the club are paying him as part of NB's and he is training with us to keep fit and understand structures etc to pass on at reserves level

I still feel that most of Pickett's best work was not quite right.....he NEARLY did something brilliant.... he ALMOST pulled off something spectacular.
I expect this did and will improve with increased fitness, game time and confidence.
I want to believe he will put it all together, because if he does he is going to be a genuine game-breaker.

Dear lord give me Boekhorst over Shaw and O'Shea any day.
What we need is a team that can kick 350 goals in a season.
I don't care if they come from the backline and or forwards go goals. Just get me those 350 goals.

Always thought Shaw was underutilised at GC, and is a handy player. Just having trouble seeing where he adds too
much that we don't already have. O'Shea reported to be a fav of Bolts among the NB's, reward for effort, but we have
tall defenders coming out our .... Boakhorst interesting, some decent performances at the back end of the season, surely
either/or with Shaw.....at least should produce maximum effort to test his ceiling (go hard or go home)
That doesn't really seem to fit, but who knows?
It's not as though we won't have KPP experience at the NB's next year, unless they go down like flies.
Bottom side in 1980 nearly got that.
Believe it or not, the bottom side in that season kicked more goals in home and away than the team on top of ladder.
Food for thought.
