I have absolute no doubt we would have asked the question....as 16 other clubs would have.

Surprisingly not every player wants to come to Carlton....which I personally find it hard to believe :cool:
Maybe we can prise Sam Frost out of Hawthorn.🥸

Agree, wouldnt be trading Owies for picks (unless tied to a trade for KPD or talented small forward). Love Owies, but think he is at top of his value now and overvalued at that.

Honestly, Charlie draws three players at most contests. There's two of our forwards going spare, anyone with footspeed and goal sense will clean up --> see Williams

Love Williams also - can’t wait to see him back.
 
Anyone have knowledge of this kid?

Has been interviewed by almost every club but his preference is Carlton.

Happy to give the source to the mods.

A poster posted in the no discussion thread about a month ago, that we are very interested
 
I would prefer ringing lever and asking him if he is happy instead of petracca - would do a lot for us --
Also I would like to ask Brennan Cox if he feeling the love

I did post a while back that we should chase after Barass.............
Chased by the Swans last year and said no. You can only imagine how much that the Hawks have offered him to lure him over, if they've offered Battle $850k. Would have to be well over $1mill a year.

That's one of the beauties of being a rebuilding team with a lot of cap space. We were there once but there is no way our cap would allow that now.
 
If people are saying our forward line is better with only one of the big boys, H or Charlie -

…and we need a key defender, why not play Harry back ?

My early call. I'm not fussed on Petracca or Houston. Cost and age worry me

If we get roughly

Haynes FA
Aleer for F2
Garcia for Pick 40
First round pick (Berry - sml fwd)
2 more good draft picks
Campo twins for 3rd round pick and rookie
Pick 30 for Owies
Pick 40 for Carroll

I will be very happy

Key for 2025 is internal development and fitness

If we lose Owies 30 goals we need to replace with something comparable for next season.

Berry might be a good prospect but he isn’t going to kick 30 goals for us next year.

I reckon a proven goalkicker like Rachele could be got for the same price.

The rest of it looks great especially if one of those other draft picks is O’Farrell.

Id prefer to keep Owies and trade out Motlop or C Durdin.
 
That is who we should be after. The missing link.

I always assumed Barrass would be too expensive for us yet we are clearly considering how to get Petracca and Houston.

Clearly the Hawks put a lot of time into committing to him and we didn’t. Another example of by Austen misjudging our list needs.

Is it? How do you know we didn’t ask the question, and he said no? Or that we took into account his back issues he’s had over the last couple of years? Not everything is Nick Austin’s fault
 
Wait, what? Jeez I hope you are right Weirdo as you've named one of the all time great Carlton stars here. And yes I am old enough to know.
Are you really "old enough to know" anyone before the 60s and onwards? Very few can call on personal knowledge of the 50s much less 40s and before that it's basically no-one. That's pretty much the first half of the club's history that is lost to living memory. Sadly. But I suppose if you can recall even back to the late 60s (as I can) you've got a far handle on many of the clubs all-time greats. To be clear I don't doubt Crippa is one of our all time greats, but I doubt many are "old enough to know", that gets at best the second half of Carlton's history, for the first half we have to rely on historical records.

If we can get his ankle right why not Charlie back? We've seen what he can do when dropping back as a spare late in quarters etc
