Was undropable at Carlton. I'm sure it will happen.

Cant think of any player Denis has "let go" from Carlton who went on and played top quality football.

Allan and Murphy had a few moments but nothing special. Beaumont, McKernan, Norman (not even picked up), Angwin (not picked up), Brett Johnson was not picked up also. Morrell not picked up.

I think Camporeale will join that list and not come back to bite us later.
I will be subtracting the play on from kick ins and the 15.01 m passes to youngsters who then feel obligated to handball back to him when he runs past though.
Harsh I know but fair.

Camporeale will thrive with JJ, Pevs and MJ around him. Sorry folk but we are going to have some "egg" on our faces here.
There will be a honeymoon period where all the Bumber supporters come out and applaud his 30 possies and 4 goals in a game. But as the weeks go by they'll slowly turn on him. He sold out and he's now a mercenary. Essendon will never truely accept him as one of theres, and we at Carlton will always remember his selfishness first and foremost. That's the price he payed for a bit of extra cash.

Well there was not alot we could really do. If he didn't want to play for the club we had to let him go, albeit for nothing! He will be an excellent player for the Dons for a couple of years with the hard-at-the-ball players you mentioned. I will be angry if he tastes any success with them!

As opposed to Carrazzo, Kouta, Stevens, Bentick, Blackwell and Murphy feeding him the ball?:rolleyes:

The guy's a cancer that had to be cut out and most Bluesfans are glad he's gone.:thumbsu:

Essendon aren't going anywhere. Another mid table result in 2006 is the best they can hope for.

Exactly, and to have some smart comment about taking kouta out when essendon plays carlton, cancereale couldnt take out a women, let alone a giant like kouta.Yet another cheap shot by campo, one we have all come to expect,goodbye and good ridence, its players like you who have brought carlton to its knees, you money hungry little weed.

So what is the club expected to be held to ransom by its players? No, the club done the right thing, campo had a crap attitude and wasnt getting any younger, carlton fans have everyright to be upset at what he has done.

Irish, "most" Carlton supporters aren't happy that Campo left.
That is the crux of the argument and why I replyed to Cyber.
Whether the club or Campo is at fault, is irrelevant here. For mine, both are.

Do a poll asking whether we're glad he's gone then without it being hacked by opposition fans and look at the result.
Sheedy all smiles at symbolic switches

Camporeale's real appreciative of the opportunities Carlton gave him after reading his statements in today's Age.
Camporeale, who turned 30 in August, estimated he could play as many as four more seasons of AFL football. "There were a few reasons, but the biggest one was just the enjoyment factor," he said of his move. "I'm late in my career and just wanted a change and wasn't really enjoying myself, and I just feel like a new recruit now. I didn't sleep last night, I was like a new draftee."

Camporeale said the disillusionment of his fall-out with his old club, and having to train by himself before being given permission to train at Windy Hill, had made him more appreciative of his second chance.

"You certainly learn a lot more about yourself when you get put in that situation," he said. "I've probably been a bit blessed that I haven't had to worry about those sort of things, and I guess I've been a bit ignorant towards that.

"Essendon is a great club. I've played a lot of times against them, and really enjoyed playing against the group of guys they've got here. I think they've got a good mix between young and old guys that can definitely play in finals, and hopefully win a premiership in the time I'm here."
If an outside runner is so valuable and the best footballer in the draft why didn't we redraft him yesterday?

I know I can't speak for everyone, but within our small circle of Carlton fans up here (about 8 strong), there was not one person who was sad to see him go. Mind you, he was our scapegoat of 2005. And considering we won the spoon, that's quite an honour!

Guy's I was as dissapointed at Campo walking out on the club as anyone, it just doesnt happen to the Blues. My dissapointment related to the fact that one of the issues was $$$ considering the fact that he had been paid way above his value for years. The club offerred him a fair contract amount but this was not accepted.

Anyway time to move on. I would have liked him to finish his career with the club as he has been a good player for a long time - but not to be. It now opens the door for a younger guy to take a midfield role. Perhaps its the opportunity that one of the following have been waiting for: Carrazzo, Simpson, Davies, Blackwell, Russell, Chambers, Sporn - now there will be opportunities and we will find out who is going to go the distance....

Best outcome is that when we play Essendon, whoever plays on Campo absolutely towels him up!

We won't miss him and we will most likely finish on the same rung of the ladder anyway.

Personally I was shattered that he left... I know he was a money whinging priek, but still he played in a premiership in the Navy Blue and he was a leader.

However after seeing his pretty little face smiling and happy at Essendon, I'm furious, but glad he has piessed off.

I want to see him hurt, hurt physically and hurt mentally when Carlton make the finals in the next few years and he is playing out his career on the bottom of the ladder.

I'm really looking forward to Carlton playing Essendon... and Campo lining up.

Better players than Campo have left Carlton, so let him have his money and look forward to giving it to him in round 7
