That time of the year again

From the end of last year, to this point, nothing has swayed my opinion. Of course based on health of individuals and the list as a whole

  • 13-16 Wins. Similar to last year
  • Fantasia to be our most dangerous small forward
  • O Holland to finish top 10 BnF
  • Harry a better year in front of goals
  • Moir to debut
  • Cerra AA squad
6-8 changes to the list

Let's see how these 2024 predictions are going half way through...
I'll let a few rip:
  • We get solidly beaten this week.
Brisbane game. Was certainly on track for this at one stage - then a miracle occurred!
  • Danger game vs Richmond, finally we sneak away with an unconvincing win.
Correct.
  • Weitering and Walsh both return in April and struggle for their first month. This drags the team down a few notches.
Wrong, both been brilliant straight out of the gate. Bravo.
  • One of Durdin or Young stands up in place of Weitering and saves us late from an upset loss vs a minnow club.
Didn't happen (although Young was good in the Brisbane game) and now doesn't look likely, hope Weitering is good to go for all remaining games.
  • We lose at least 2 (hopefully not more) of the following five games that we should be winning: Richmond twice, Adelaide at home, Bulldogs, Saints.
On track, lost 1 from 2 so far. Will be very pleased to be wrong about this.
  • We destroy * just before the winter bye, thus going to the bye 7-6.
2 wins better off than this, I'll take it and run.
  • Game plan shifts to a more attacking style after the bye and we win 7 out of last 10 games to finish 6th with 14 wins.
Hopefully the 7 out of 10 is right.
  • First final is another nail biter and too close to call. Win and we win the following week too. Lose and a long summer of soul searching begins.
Hopefully we'll be top 4 so not sudden death (but in any case win first up).
  • We cop one soul destroying injury that puts that player out for the season and jeopardises finals, but gives someone a chance to shine and they take it.
Doc, and Cowan (arguably other possibilities for the second player).
  • Hollands brothers both finish top 10 in the B&F. Joined by Cripps, Cerra, Walsh, Weitering, Charlie, TDK, Saad and a dark horse nobody sees coming.
Elijah maybe on track, think Ollie can and will go up a gear or two but might not make it that high. Cerra probably out. Harry probably in. Not sure about dark horse yet.
  • Pittonet will toil away manfully for various games but by end of the season will be regularly lining up in the reserves.
I stand by this. TDK has been brilliant.
  • Harry's form is good early but falls away as he struggles through winter. Then recovers and is dominating by finals.
Been very good so far, hopefully less winter dip and more dominating to come.
  • There's hard luck story where someone who has battled away for years showing flashes of promise is injured half the year, plays reserves most of the rest, and is not offered a new contract.
At least 2 guys on track for this.
 
Bump…seems I was right…just can’t trust em. Somehow we’re winning early but the signs were there

Then we got on a roll when we were able to field a good team overall, to then fall in a heap with form and fitness. Clubs have worked us out and completely taken away the huge advantage we had with a slow midfield, our clearance and contest game.
I’ll give the coaches some credit, they turned a massive weakness in the turnover game around but it’s so bloody clear with this list that is not the way we are going to get to the promised land. This is a list to beat you up in the contest, turnover game is the icing. We need both but we absolutely need to be winning the clearance/contest game with our player set of strengths around and on the ball.

I was right a long time back with Russell, was banned a couple of times over it. Make no mistake, this area of the program has cost us 3 years of our window of opportunity just like the recruiting area in our last attempt at a rebuild. Is it too late, who tf knows, but I do know we need to do have almost the perfect trade/draft/preseason to be anything next year.

Just have to hope the club don’t do a typical Carlton thing and dump the coach to go for a Malthouse messiah type

It’s best to take off your blue tinted glasses, this club is made for breaking you.

2024 Draft as important as 2015 Draft

Smith
Ben Camporeale.
Lucas Camporeale
HOF

Tough considering 2015 Draft
Weitering
Harry
Charlie
Jack

But considering our draft capital it will be just as important

1) We finish 6th
2) Mckay wins B & F
3) L Camporeale, Carrol and Boyd improve our transition game and play 10+ games
4) Tension in the supporter base over game style between contest and pressure and a more balanced transition. Not understanding we need the latter to sustain top 4
5) Backline injuries to Haynes, Mcgovern. Jsos, Weiters exhausted leads to coughing up leads in the last 10 games and falling out of top 4.
6) Binns, Lemmey, Evans, Fogarty delisted Doc retires
7) Austin trades in ready made KPD and midfielder & drafts a young KPF. Wright pulls the strings
8) Voss's Coaching questioned..Graeme Wright appoints Adam Simpson experienced senior assistant.
9) Wright sacks Brad Lloyd

Once again strong predictions!!! I like it.

I'll have a crack - mainly Carlton related.
1. We finish 7th or 8th with injuries again being on the agenda
2. GF will be out of Collingwood/Lions/Hawthorn
3. Daicos will win Brownlow after MASSIVE overcorrection a la Swan - history repeats
4. Luca Campo will get a RS nomination
5. Kemp will be traded at the end of the year despite having his best year
6. TDK will re-sign as a Blue for life
7. We will draft Dean, Ison and Gresham through F/S and Academy
8. Luca, Ben, Billy and Walter to debut.
8. Doch to retire. Cincotta, Evans, Monahan, Lemmey delisted.
9. Mingara Clark signed as Cat B rookie
10. We will seek a trade for Leek Aleer
11. Cripps wins B&F
12. Food/drinks at games will be overpriced

Good Call Point 10 trading for Aleer
 
2025

Haynes will be our Sexton

Kemp will be our Clape

Camporeale will be our Camporeale
Was thinking about comparisons myself after Friday’s game, I had Kemp as our potential Richard Dennis or Brad Pearce type impact.

We need Elijah to become our Clape…..
 
We already have our Clape, that's Blacres...
Kemp will be our Pearce
Cincotta our Hoggy
Crippa is already Diesel
Charlie is Sticks
Harry is Earl
Weiters covering for Sexton
JSOS will cover for SOS
Campo x2 for Campo x1
Saad for McKay
Walshie for Bradles
Cera is Ratts
Elij is Brown Dawg

I rest my case, if Leeds goes up to the EPL, which it looks like will happen, THEN IT IS NUMBER 17, the Dirty Trifecta of Philly Eagles/Leeds/Baggers
 
14 wins

Trade in Ed Richards as a Free Agent in addition to our Academy boys and Harry Dean (Mingara as Cat B over Monaghan).

Voss returns the favour and brings in Ken Hinkley as a senior assistant for 2026.
Plz tell me this is based on what ur hearing
