Player Watch 2018 retirements and delistings

[LordLucifer]

Carlton have flung O'Shea, Mullet, Shaw & Glass-McCasker today.

 

[SSSSSS]

Thought Hartung's disposal improved at North. They were 8-5 with him and 4-5 without.

I think it was less the disposal that improved but his decision making. At Hawthorn he had to think too much, whereas at North his job was to simply run hard and keep it simple by kicking it straight to BBB.

Footy looks a lot easier when you have a big gun forward who you know can at worst make any contest a 50/50.

Flung?

Those are real people who have lost their job and potentially seen their dream end.

3 of those were pretty predictable. didnt know enough about Shaw

Did Melbourne change list management between the Toumpas and petracca drafts?

Toumpas draft we'd moved on the previous dill and had Viney acting in the role while we hired. Jason Taylor is the genius since then.

 

[ApplecrossWC]

Can't find it now but apparently there were off field issues with Hartung. Something to do with his dad.

 

[gandaal]

Didn't have a chance when they were drafted to Carlton!

This isn't Bay 13 troll

Carlton have a bad football system at present, will it turn around ? They've had a few years to get it right.... without success thus far.

Did he glass a stripper Carey was dating?

Regardless seemed to do alright until injury.

Doubt any of them dreamed of playing for Carlton. Probably much happier now

 

[Ishikawa]

Agreed. You see some genuine surprises with delistings. You wonder how vigilant the recruiting staff is when they trade for a player and then dump him after 1 season. They should have known how good the kid is when they picked him up. Then again, we do see players delisted only to be picked up again by the same club.

Hartung's problem is not ability. By the sounds of it (and by deduction) there must be personality issues.

What was was story with glass-mccasker? He looked good as a junior.

Tiger supporters proving themselves to be massive flogs once again.

Not quick enough. Didn't get much of the ball and struggled to stop VFL forwards.

Kicked a few goals up forward late so that might be his salvation in the future.

 

[Herne Hill Hammer]

Rumour has it the runner came out to Hartung during the VFL match on the weekend to inform him *

*Dramatization, may not have happened

Jeez that's tough. hahaha.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

The very definition of chalk and cheese is Jack and Stephen.....
Jack literally would not even be good enough to be a VFL footballer if not for the surname.

I,m all for jack staying on their list.
Means Dad is still there.

Found out who is real father is.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

How did Silvagni survive the chop?

 

[Chuckie357]

How did Sylvagni survive the chop?

List managers son

 

[kane249]

How did Sylvagni survive the chop?

Probably because they were looking for Silvagni?

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Whoopsies

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

How did Silvagni survive the chop?

List manager was saved by his promising son

 

[Mullarkey]

Basically the reason he didn't remain with the Hawks

 

[Schods]

Rischitelli to be delisted (as told by afl.com.au) and re-drafted as a rookie.
