Does Willo not have twitter? Seems unusual for an 18 year old

Hehehe I like this, I smell something very very sneaky afoot, secure all the talent now & watch them all take reasonable offers to stay together. It gives us the war chest to secure a few big names to put us over the top. We aren't hunting for just one flag, SOS wants his sons to write there own piece of Carlton history

 

[HBF]

Great that we're signing up all these players. Fantastic news for the club.

 

[Mister Carlton]

Like Brisbane had a chance of getting Byrne.

 

[Mister Carlton]

Heard from a mate today that one of the reasons behind Touhy leaving Carlton at the end of last season was due to the length of contract being offered. Are Carlton only offering players 2 year deals or was this a once off?

SOS obviously didn't rate him.

Interesting if true as Levi deal by Richmond would cancel out FA compo for Martin.

Casboult or a mid 1st round pick? - wondering if we might convince Richmond to trade rather than pursue FA

Casboult +3rd round ->mid 1st round from Martin compo? - would be better for tigers than Martin -> casboult alone

I think Richmond either are extremely confident that Martin will re sign , Or are determined to match any offer otherwise no offer would be made to any free agent (if in fact there is an offer which im extremely suspect with only Nixon the source)

Tuohy was offered a 3 year deal.

Hopefully the club will re-sign Docherty soon. Do it now to keep the vultures away,

He bleeds blue, would never leave

 

[DollarsandSense]

Where's agro ?

He has a little rumour that may send this place a little feral.

Any rumours send this place a little feral.... we all want one that'll send us A LOT feral....

 

[djw1952]

Gotta disagree that we are playing better than we actually are. In fact I'm not even sure that's possible.

whatever.........but can you change your avatar as it makes me spew every time I see that right wing maggot......it has to be in jest I know, but I will need a bucket if I see it too much more.........

 

[djw1952]

You can't play better than you are. Only play at your best more often.

Some people think the "Western Bollocks" played above themselves to win the flag last year........all in the way that you see it I guess...........

 

[djw1952]

If Levi goes it isn't the end of the world but it does put a lot more pressure on Charlie Curnow & McKay.
I've been really impressed with Charlie Curnow, since Weitering went back about 4 weeks ago Charlie has played well as the 2nd tall forward.

Agree........if those two were further advanced (especially Harry as he has not really started yet) we probably would not mind Caz going.......but with nothing to replace him it leaves a big gap unless Carlton start playing "H" in the seniors soon and he shows a bit...........

 

[HereComesJuddy]

Get Sydney's Sam Reid

 

[HARKER]

Get Sydney's Sam Reid

Collingwood seems the more likely destination for him.
We won't pay what they will and I don't think we need to.
If we are to lose Levi it may hurt in the short term but reaching for something similar won't help our cause.........it has to be better.

I feel we'll be surprised when we have a midfield that motors harder and longer than the current one. It will change a lot about the way we play.
We need smart and creative key forwards.....one will do, because I think we already have another one in hand.

 

[thylacine60]

See ya Levi.

See ya, Sheiky....

Jacob Hopper has played just 16 AFL games for Greater Western Sydney, but he is about to become one of the most sought-after players in the competition behind teammate Josh Kelly and Richmond free agent Dustin Martin.
The second-year midfielder is out of contract at the end of the season and has had preliminary discussions with the Giants, who are in the process of sorting out Kelly’s position. Both players are managed by Paul Connors.
While many clubs have inquired about Hopper’s situation, Geelong and Carlton have emerged as his main suitors.

The vibe around here is that SOS lowballed him so he'd walk and deliver the 1st rounder needed for Marchbank.

 

[dragonsblues]

I'm not sure if this is the right thread, but I'm relieved we didn't get Aish.

 

[I bleed Blue]

Sign up Cunners for a few more years, and throw Jones another 2 years if he plays well for the next month of footy.

The rest can stay unsigned till the end of year to see what may come about.

Beat me to it. Doc will never leave Carlton. He'll be our next captain for sure.
