Cotchin has played a much more physical and team oriented game this year. Gone are the dinky 2 for 1's backward of centre. He has been much more nose over the ball.
To his great credit, and team's benefit.
Murph is banged up. To his own credit, he has stopped a lot of his flopping for frees this year that had crept into his game.
But our team has to start earning the respect of the competition. We need change. Harder change.
And it is there....ready.
I just hope the playing group and Coaches are pro-active enough and it is still not "the older guy's team" from next year. Time to move on from Murphy, Gibbs, Simmo, Armfield as Leaders of the group.
Will be an interesting watch thru pre-season to see our approach.
I might have to take some of the flak for Cotchin and the Tigs' great year. Met them when they turned up at the Sunny Coast for their preseason trip at the place we were holidaying at for the weekend. They had a pretty rowdy night (we were there having dinner) and I grabbed Cotch to say g'day. Might've given him a rev up... perhaps as a loyal Bluebagger I should've given him a psych out or something - my bad *hands up*

And replace them with who? Weitering would have been the obvious one last year but he is further away now then he was then. I seriously can't think of one.....
Weitering...definately no. Let the kid concentrate on, and enjoy his own game for at least a few years.
Docherty as Captain and Cripps as Vice Captain. They are ready and by far our best options. Docherty will be a hard, firm leader from my observation. He will run a competitive and accountable ship.
The rest of the "leadership group" is far less important. I would have no qualms with Murphy, Curnow, Krooz or whoever the players and coaches decide.
The standards and direction will be led by the Coach, and the natural leaders of the next 8 year team.
I hope our group are pro-active enough and confident enough to take ownership of a NEW Carlton NOW.

Levi is free to explore his options.
With a better midfield he could be really worth a large contract. One large enough to net a second round compo...

IMO that's that's changing for the sake of change. We have leaders who are performing extremely highly in very hard circumstances and who the players want to lead them. Why throw them out?

Hearing from a few people that harry McKay may ask to be traded to north so he can play along side his brother, he isn't to happy about not getting a game and would much rather play along side his brother
Just signed a contract and didn't want to play with his brother.
Don't listen to all you hear.

Why did he sign a new contract only a few weeks ago then?

Doubtful he's upset at the club about not playing given he's injured. Bolts has publicly stated that they're keen to get him back on the park before the end of the season.
Harry was managed the same way Cunners was - spend the majority of the year in the VFL and then get a run of games at the back-end of the season. He just had to wait an extra year after have stress reactions in his back last year.

Given he's signed, is it Ben seeking a trade to Carlton? He hasn't got any games yet.
Can be easy to confuse the two.

Not having a go at you, but this is the complete opposite to what I have heard.
He's meant to be a tremendous young fella, the club rate him incredibly highly and have made him aware of this and informed him about the planned slow approach they are taking.
Would be very very surprised if he left. Isn't seen as a flight risk.

Could be mate, just heard a McKay wanted to be traded to play with his brother, I remember Harry's tweet from a few weeks ago so assumed it was harry, maybe Ben wants to join
Best time to ask for a trade is the same season you signed a contract extension in?
Sure, why not.
Wont most of this happen by eating and acquainting himself with restaurant owners in Lygon street ?
