Clayton Collard

[TheHeatleyStand]

I think that the Carlton Football Club need to have a chat with Clayton and see were he is at, this wouldn't hurt anyone and the club can decide whether this guys head is in the right place. If it is, i would be more than happy to give up either pick 36 or 46 for him. He is very talented, we have to explore every option to get him at the club, he would be a great asset to us. Remember he is only eighteen, he could be very much changeable.

Why would we need to have a chat to him.... one of our new recruiters just came over from Freo.. and would know all his ins and outs...

Leave him alone...... nutcase!!... spare us the tears and let some other club pick him up and deal with him... were on the road to somewhere special.. why would you upset that for Collard???

 

[Magnificence]

Draft the guy for sure if no off field problems. Why was he delisted?

He is a talented player.

He was playing in the reserves at south freo at one stage and likes to party in a style which would see him fit in at the eagles

 

[TheHeatleyStand]

He's worth a go. What's the worst it could do? I've thought for a while that we've needed that extra small forward to keep the ball inside the forward 50 - Betts is awesome, but can't do it on his own.

Thw worst he can do is drag us through the mud.. and have his teamates hate him/... get caught doing all kinds of illegal activity.. and not train...

The best he can do is play one or two good games along with all the above and we have to sack him..

Referring to Steven Icke?

Was not he apart of the Freo football club which decided to draft him?

Imo Icke will be the first one to want to know what has gone on in the past year. He'll know that he has a lot of upside

When has he got involved in illegal activity?

When has he not trained?

Please, it's comments like these that start rumours and tarnish a players name.

The best he can do is play 1 or two good games? Yep ok then

Look.. last time i looked Icke didnt have the final say on drafting.

As well as Icke we have Shane Rogers now from Freo.. but he didnt have the last say on Collard...

After trading all their earlish picks Freo had to pull a rabbit our of the hat... they didnt.. the experiment failed...

Im not starting rumours..... Collards been disciplined countless times.. thats why hes axed...

Youre starting rumours by saying there is nothing wrong with him..... the footy world knows better...

From this point on its all about how desperate you are... are we despretate??

No!!

So the chances are he wont be playing for us and will be playing for a club that is desperate... (if any)...

Youll probably find clubs will stop taking the nutcases of this world..
Sweeney/Norman/Angwin/Mourish/Collard.. wouldnt have played 20 games between them...

Gardiner /Cousins/Farmer/Kerr are quickly becoming a headache in this new era of corporates and image..

The old days where you could sweep things under the carpet are over...

Got anything to add???

I have faith in the club to make the correct decision re: drafting kids in the ND and PSD.

1. I never said Icke had a final say on ANYTHING i said he was APART of it.
2. I never said there wasn't anything wrong with him. In fact, i said we knew NOTHING about the real reason why he was delisted.
3. Thirdly. YOU ARE spreading rumours. Referring to the fact that he 'won't turn up at training' or will 'participate in illegal activity'

I'm not going to even bother posting again, because it seems every time you have something to say you like to twist everything i say just to suit you.

The plain fact is, that we don't really know what happened behind the scenes. It's all very vague - so to accuse him of participating in the things you have stated is just pathetic.

 

[Blues08]

if he is as good as people say he is i think we should give him a go, such a good bunch of blokes in the team surrounding him along with being away from hes friends could straighten him out! i think its worth the risk because it could pay off..
there are alot of players who at a young age would have had trouble but as he matures and is in a good enviroment it could work!

 

[CarltonFan]

is it still too late to delist saddington... for collard?

The final list lodgement before the national draft was the 16th of November.

oh ok... so thats 3 boys in the national draft and 1 in the psd?

 

[HBF]

Or 4 selections in the ND, and bypass the PSD all together, which I think might be the more likely outcome.

If Ryley Dunn is the best we can do, then I vote we use pick 65 instead of the PSD.

List Lodgement Three and TPP Estimates

Delisted Player Nominations Close

I don't really know much about list lodgements, but i think going by that, that a player is able to be delisted after the ND?

I still believe Carlton will use 4 picks in the ND and one in the Pre-Season. Imo there's still one more culling to come. Hope it's Saddington or Wiggins, but i doubt it as i think both have been contracted for next season.

Saddo's contract expired this year. There has been no announcement, but there may not be.
Scotland's wasn't announced, nor was Setanta's, Cloke's, Bannister's or Bentick's new contracts, yet I'd find it hard to believe that they are all out of contract ATM.

 

[Silvagnis]

If Saddo's out of contract he should not be given another two years.

It might be harsh, I'd rather cut him than give him one more year and draft another kid at pick 65.

He had a poor year, is very soft and was thrashed by Westhoff twice.

Burgo seems to think we have our eyes on someone in the PSD. Who? I can't think of anyone??

Yeah, someone mentioned in the contracts and delistings thread that Saddo had been quietly signed up for one more year. I hope not.
