They have ruled out asking for one, but they certainly need it. They have won 2 games in almost 400 days.

They will take it, no doubt about it...

By the end of the year it will be 18 out of the last 88 or 20.5% over a four year period.

Player Focus

Potential first-round choice, Oakleigh's Riley Collier-Dawkins was the standout for Vic Metro's Under-18s in their win against the Allies. It was the work of the 194cm, 88kg, midfielder at centre bounces that was most impressive. Collier-Dawkins regularly won first possession, taking a run up and with perfect timing winning the ball on the move and exploding forward at speed. The explosive midfielder secured 16 disposals, 10 contested possessions, five clearances, seven inside 50s and two goals on the day. Both of Collier-Dawkins' goals came from 50m on the move. His most notable goal came off a handball receive where he accelerated 25m through the centre before slotting the goal effortlessly at speed. Adding to the intrigue surrounding Collier-Dawkins is his growth over the off-season where he shot up a reported 6cm. Collier-Dawkins' game bares strong similarities to Marcus Bontempelli as a tall, explosive midfielder who has a high impact per possession and does his best work in contested situations. To improve his draft stocks, he will need to become a higher volume ball winner as he is only averaging 19.7 disposals per game.

isn't Priority picks at the end of the first round if so cow supporters will be peeved as they have the 1st pick of the 2nd round (originally Carltons 2nd round pick which was traded to them as part of the Gibbs deal)

if that happens and they get it .. it will be a big laugh

 

[OneGreatClub]

Aren’t we loaded with mids already though?

They already said they didn't want one. ie got told they wouldn't get one.

Carlton is full of high picks. They just destroy them. Weitering and SPS would be superstars at a decent club. They need to be rescued!

 

[RossFC]

Aren’t we loaded with mids already though?

If we are talking about kids developing in the reserves Atley may be traded and Hewett/Snelling might be delisted so there might be a hole there. As for the AFL side we are chockablock with mids.

Imagine the laugh if they get one and take Lukosius and Rankine

 

[Sewer de Lance]

What’s the chances of the club doing a deal to secure Izak Rankine? He’s exactly what we need...pacy, skilful, natural goal sense, X-factor.

I would trade a player & our first rd pick to get him over the line.

 

[OneGreatClub]

How can they ask for a priority pick if they are supposedly willing to give their top pick to the Crows? Wouldn’t the AFL then be assisting our neighbours?

So would every other club lol

 

[Sleezy]

I would expect picks 1 to 4 to belong to Carlton and GCS, through priority picks/FA compensation. Potentially 1 to 5 if May gets a big deal to leave as well. The top 5 may look like:
- 1 Carlton - Lukosious
- 2 Carlton - Walsh
- 3 GCS - Max King
- 4 GCS - Ben King
- 5 GCS - Rankine

Though with that domination of the top end, I would expect trades to be done. Especially with GCS/Carlton needing established players.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

They will take it, no doubt about it...

Yeah. They are clearly asking for one without asking for one. Trying to keep up appearances for their brand so they can still retain and attract players and sponsors.

But the whole 'we won't be lobbying for a pic BUT...' makes it pretty clear they think they deserve one and puts pressure on the AFL to give them one.

[Sleezy]

Does anyone think a trade of McGovern (Adl) for McKay (Carl) would go down?

A forward line of Curnow, Lukosious and McGovern would be tough to match up on, and would make McKay surplus to requirements.

Then Carlton would get to spend the PP on a midfielder they desperately need (assuming they get one).

 

[rumoursofwinter]

Carlton have already announced they don't want a priority pick a couple of months ago.

This is from yesterday.

https://www.sen.com.au/news/2018/07...at-player-re-signing-announcements-next-week/

“Our view on the priority pick is we want to take responsibility for where we’re at and accept that we got ourselves into this position,” Liddle told the AFL Nation pregame show.

“We’re more keen on things we can control, like the re-signing of players, which we’ve done a great job of this year and I’m really confident that next week we’ll have a few more announcement to make.

“We’re just not sure waving a white flag and asking for a priority pick is really in line with our confidence. We’ve made a decision to go down this path and we think when it comes to the 18 to 21 year old’s, we’re as good as anyone in that age group.”

No priority pick!

Easy for them to say, but I reckon the AFL will give them one on the back of a one win season.

 

[It Just Is]

Carlton traded Gibbs and actively made themselves shitter in the short term. They were never getting a priority pick.

Tanking for Lukosius and asking for a priority pick would just be taking the piss.

 

[philthy05]

I have no confidence in the afl to make the right decision

I do know that if they give anyone a priority pick it won’t be really early. It would cause to much furore especially amongst voices they don’t want angry like clarko and Eddie

Can see Lukosius across Carltons half back line. He's good enough to control the game from there.

 

[Adz2332]

If they were to get one it better be end of round

 

[chiwigi]

They have CHOSEN not to win a game.

There’s a huge difference.
