Livingston hasn't really set the world on fire while at Carlton. Looks like it's time for him to go and try his luck elseware. Livo may make it as a leading forward at AFL level because he is suprisingly quick but kicking for goal lets him down.
What do you people think that Carlton could get for him?
Maybe Ashley Watson from the Kangaroos?

i think we need to get more bulk into him, and have him develop further as a fb ... he did okay against lloyd, neitz, mcdougal etc ... he's only 21 and big players take longer to develop.

ps: no small midfielders, we already have enough!!!!! we need kpp and i dont wanna lose any we've got, bar lance.

I Don't think he will bulk up much more, he's already solid enough at 190cm and 94kg.
As for the small midfielders, yes we do have alot of small ones, but i think some of them will be turnedover of the list. I mentioned Watson because he's more of a ball carrier than the likes of Hulme and Mcormick.

true true ...

but our priorities are kp/ruckman ....

watson seems a good prospect, but roos wont want him to leave i suspect.

i just hope we snare jolly and maybe a young kp player.
 
don't wish to be harsh,but my last memory of the season was Livingston 3 metres behind Tarrant on a lead and slowly falling back.

He ran to the bench quicker.

Jury still out, happy for him to stay if he is going to get a full season.

agree ...

BUT he didn't do a full pre-season last yr ...

So get a big one into him, design a role for him, one that he sets himself for and who knows he may improve like prenda did this yr!!!! keep him i say.

exaclty ...

we have:
1. karl norman - 194 cm's and is quick!!! He can take the quick blokes, like tarrant, matera, medhurst etc ... also towled lucas playing chb earlier this year.
2. brett thornton who can take pretty much ne body our number one defender, but will play mainly chb next year.
3. david teague takes the tougher medium sized fwds, hammil, robbo, medhurst etc
4. luke livingstone should groom to take the "gorilas" as pagan put it, ie played esp well in the body to body contests on the likes of lloyd, neitz etc ... so should be groomed into this role.
5. morell can play floating helpful role across half back.
6. lappin and houlihan both are creative defenders ... may move houla up fwd.


so i think there is a need for a livingstone ... there is no fb, well except maybe scarlet that could play on all the ff's!!! ie mal michael wouldn't take tarrent, but he would always take a gehrig.

i say keep livo, and pick up another player, maybe chris lamb to bolster our defence.

priority is ruckman, kpp and crumming fwd ... oh and quick midfielders would also be nice.

but livo should be kept is the bottom line :)

Yep Agreed, so its a pointless trade. Neither team gains anything by it!

Here here. Can't go giving away blokes that can play key positions just cos we lose patience with them or they're not big enough/not developed enough physically. I don't know about his contract but Pagan effectively had a chance to get rid of him last season and didn't. So he must see something in him. I'm willing to see how he goes in 05. Then make a decision.

i agree but we may have an ace in Ohalipin cant want to watch the irish series see how he plays and see our mobile he is against the Australians

He had great form in the seconds kicking 7 goals in one game he has taken to aussie rules like a duck to water
 
Unless we pick up a Michael or a ready made KP player, I reckon we should keep him.

We've been ridiculously fortunate in that T-Bird has remained injury free these last 2 years.

Should he go down with an injury next year and we trade Livo, we are really screwed.

From carltonfc.com.au
Karl Norman
Guernsey Number: 37
Height 190 cm
Weight: 87

They haven't updated it since he came to the club. According to Karl himself and comparisons standing beside other players, he is closer to 194 than he is to 190 I believe.

Rumor from TBV Livingston to Geelong for 3rd round pick.

geelong would never want Livingston. They have the best defence in the league.
Scarlett
Harley
Milburn
They already have three tallls down there.
And Livingston hardly gets a game with Carlton.
