This was the leftovers from the 23 & unders as exhibit A as the 1st view of our list makeup.I hope by end of pre season we are seeing some names like HOK, Moir, Motlop, Smith, Dean, Chesser, Wilson, Ison, Charleson, Campo twins etc as Best 23.
The side you have named is the staus quo but over next 12 months we need to go past names like Young, Saad, Haynes, Newman, Acres etc.
We need the next gen stepping up and getting games and pushing others out based on form
Yes pleaseCharleston reminds me alot of Sinclair.
In numbers, yes. But quality remains to be proven.We now have surplus in that area soap.
With more mongrel than any of our current lot.Heād be 34![]()
But you need a point of difference with your players. You can have some role players but you also need something that sets you apart from the run of the mill, whether thatās craft, elusive, pace, kicking (mandatory), vision, smarts, marking etc.We donāt need star power,we need 23 players just playing their role.
We really need both. One of our big issues this season was our stars not playing like stars. Need Cripps, Weitering, Walsh, Cerra, McKay to fire to be a chance of making the 8.We donāt need star power,we need 23 players just playing their role.
Everyone needs to be contributing to their levelWe really need both. One of our big issues this season was our stars not playing like stars. Need Cripps, Weitering, Walsh, Cerra, McKay to fire to be a chance of making the 8.
We've arguably had the most "star power" in the league and it's gotten us one prelim appearance. Time to change IMO.We donāt need star power,we need 23 players just playing their role.
Thereās a lot of potential there but they need a game plan that will allow them to link up and run. If itās another year of kicking long to the contest it wonāt matter how many good runners we have.From defence with NO run last year we now have Charleson Wilson Saad Boyd Ollie Chesser Florent Lucas Carroll Flynn Cottrell that can all play as running defenders
All of sudden we seem more mobile and have more run all over the ground

Could not agree more
If we come into Rd One without any significant change to this Voss is gone by mid year
Have it good authority Charlie stays if Voss was replaced end of this year.

If Voss is sacked mid season next year and we've lost them both? Would be the most Carlton thing ever.
Put simply, there is ALOT riding on the first 8 games in 2026.
Charlie who was shopping himself around mid year at the latest?
Not sure have just been told by someone pretty close to the situation that the relationship had broken down badly. Voss wanted a certain way, Charlie wanted another.
Still felt all along the club, Voss, the leaders would have mended bridges and found a way to move forward together but evidently it was more serious than I thought...
I was told early in year that Voss's relationship with Senior players and group had really deteriorated. Game plan etc
Charlie had given up early and wanted out from start of year. Relationship with Voss was strained because Charlie simply didn't care or try. This was actually an issue amongst playing group as Charlie had been given everything by coaches and club and still gave up
The fact Wright has backed Voss says to me it is still repairable and maybe moving people like Charlie wil help that? I was told we were happy to move Charlie on and just played game to maximise trade which we did
I am not a fan of Voss and doubt his coaching but I squarely put Charlie issues on Charlie (although Voss pandered to him for too long). He sooked it when things didn't go his way and it angered a lot of players including our leaders
I hope that by moving Charlie on and Voss hopefully treating everyone by same standards things will really improve. As I have stated many times this is my main concern. IMO we cannot improve unless these things are sorted
