Apologies for any inconvenience. We will try to find a replacement.
Holding Trac when he wanted out didn’t work for Melbourne - he’s worth a lot less to them now than he was last year.
Sydney moved on from Daniher after a failed attempt to land him too. Can’t see much that could make Charlie’s value go up when he’s a year older, but plenty of things can make his value go down.
I’ve got no doubt that his manager is feeding the media exaggerated stories to try dynamite him out. But he’s not doing this without Charlie’s approval. Looks like he genuinely wants to move and has authorised the manager to do what it takes to make it happen.
By bringing in quality players to give these blokes some hope and help and its not just them or bust, bringing in youth is great but to a extent, we probably have 3 more years to have a genuine crack at it, we have invested to much into this group to just give up nowIf the core group is no longer what it's cracked up to be, how can we hope to rectify that in the short term?
Nothing public yet from Charlie so its all recoverable.Can Voss and Curnow work together given the latest alleged developments?
I think not.

What???Can Voss and Curnow work together given the latest alleged developments?
I think not.
Someone said in a previous post that Charlies manager IS Trac's manager.Didn't work out for Trac's manager either. Take it as you will.
Daniher is irrelevant. He was a year from FA.

Reported that Curnow doesnt want to play for Voss anymore.What???
MehReported that Curnow doesnt want to play for Voss anymore.
The club is going with Voss, so goodbye Charlie.Reported that Curnow doesnt want to play for Voss anymore.
Curnow's manager is so unprofessional feeding the media .The club is clearly using the media to posture and position themselves to get the best possible deal.
Walsh has already revealed the club's true stance on players who want to leave. Curnow will not be at Carlton in 2026.
Caro has nailed this story from the start. The fact that she’s now reporting Curnow is willing to take less money just to get out says it all.
This situation explains so much. Charlie's poor on-field efforts. His attitude. Form. And if you've got a "leader" exhibiting these traits on the field, I can only imagine what things have been like at the club this year.
Errol Gulden. Max Holmes. Matt Rowell. There's my wishlist.
Probably did work out ok for tracks manager. He still gets paid from his current contract he got himDidn't work out for Trac's manager either. Take it as you will.

As much as we dislike it, he's essentially trying to create a wedge between the club and player such that the club feels it's irreconcilable. The club will attempt to ignore the noise but they'll be under pressure.Curnow's manager is so unprofessional feeding the media .
I would say its Charlies manager driven,Curnow's manager is so unprofessional feeding the media .
Carlton's position is clear he will not be leaving no postering at all, almost everyone can be traded for a price, reality is that it will take a exceptional offer whether that is top 5 draft picks or a quality player to pull off a deal, it is unlikely to happen.
Curnow is not a leader should never have been part of the leadership group.
Essentially he's a flog.As much as we dislike it, he's essentially trying to create a wedge between the club and player such that the club feels it's irreconcilable. The club will attempt to ignore the noise but they'll be under pressure.
New guy Davies went through it last year with Houston. Wonder what his learnings were?
D'Orazio couldn't get Trac out of Melbourne even after threats to go the legal route and essentially take the Dees to court over not trading him.My view is that Curnow’s manager lost Brand Petracca (C) last year presumably at least partially because he couldn’t leverage him out of Melbourne. He’s going to move heaven and earth to leverage Charlie out of Carlton.
You are right, Walshie. Hopefully the thing he has learnt is how to motivate the suitor to pay the price. He’s got the whole “agitate so my client can leave” schtik down pat. It’s the other side of the equation he needs to sort out.D'Orazio couldn't get Trac out of Melbourne even after threats to go the legal route and essentially take the Dees to court over not trading him.
He's going to have to go genuinely nuclear to top that circus from last year.
Yeah Trac & Charlie both use(d) Robbie D'Orrazzio - Trac sacked him after his debacle at the end of last seasonSomeone said in a previous post that Charlies manager IS Trac's manager.
So same crappy tactics i guess.
It’s pretty clear the club is doing exactly that. Not blindly matching TDK, offering JSOS what he’s worth, also playing as many games into kids as we did this year.We can forget about 'smart' trades and top four. At the moment I'm getting 'spite' vibes; that we are soldiering on to try and prove we are not quite the basket case many think we are, Sustained success means a step backwards and that's just too much of a hard sell.
The club is bigger than the playerThe club is going with Voss, so goodbye Charlie.
