Game Day Non-Swans Game Day Thread (The Finals)

[Troystenvic]

I'm not sure Voss can survive this.

They could very easily lose this by 100 points.

At what point does the cord need cutting?

Has to be Monday or Tuesday

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Carlton list peaked around 2024 its best they completely start again.

They have plenty of assets that are still valuable (Walsh,Cripps,Curnow,McKay,Acres,TDK,Weitering) pick the players you want to rebuild with and trade the rest.

A clinic from the Pies which is to be expected but the Blues have thrown in the towel. 3 weeks of bad bad football

 

[Membling]

I hate both sides but at this point have to laugh at Carlton.

Diabolical

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Anyone still want Hewett?

 

[Ballarat Bob]

Carlton have been awful over the last few weeks. Voss is surely gone probably at the end of season. Longmire might be getting some calls

 

[swanssince2002]

And it's going to be Carlton talk non-stop from Sunday evening afterwards again. Even if another team gets pummelled.

Talk of the town for all the wrong reasons.

Blake Acres, the 30yo wing-flanker that probably isnt even in Carltons best team

The others there still have value and its possible they could turn it around in those players windows, Cripps possibly has 2-3 years high level footy left.

If De Koning does leave, and he will, they can't move on Mckay.
Pittonet and some guys with a few games between them isn't enough ruck options.

No first rounder this year either. Don't think they can pull it off, they just dont know about winning

Williams, McGovern, Saad, etc all -30 too. Saad in particular is barely a player anymore seems like he might just retire

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Eagles one of the worst teams ever i actually think they will be even worse next season if possible.

Embarassing for a massive club with the resources it has.

Acres is okay he and Williams have been Carlton best tonight.

I would target Cripps i reckon he will be rejuvenated not having to carry that side every week and still has a few seasons left in him.

I would definitely let TDK go Saints are the big losers in that reported contract.

 

[RampeRobe]

Did anyone else not know that there was another game on tonight?

This was me.

I know it's been a frustrating year for us but atleast we aren't Carlton

Thats a low bar lol

 

[zyzzbruh]

Anyone still want Hewett?

They're still about, just hiding at the minute. They'll be all over him like sauce on ribs when he has his 2nd good game for the year in round 24.

Players we lost that would generally improve the side is Dawson/Cameron(miles better than McLean) lamenting their losses is fair enough.

Its just the weekly oh Parker/Hewett will be good right now rhetoric gets annoying to read.

 

[bedford]

Anyone still want Hewett?

Everyday of the week

 

[Olian]

First 3 games of the round with an average margin of 50+.

Things can only get better.

 

[McGowan3]

Anyone still want Hewett?

Was a heart and soul player for us over a number of years. Hope Sheldrick makes it but George would be a big upgrade at the present time. Gave 110% every time he played.

The coach has got the bestb out of the list. He has done his job.
The list is the problem. Carlton have had how many first round picks. Where are all of the young players developing and emerging? Walsh. Who else?
They traded picks for established players like Jack Martin to get credibility. A fewb trades liken this can kill a clubs list.
1. It puts an established player ahead of a developing player
2. It denies the club of the draft pick to get a young player into the club
Carlton has very little developing players. Where are the plethora of draft picks developing on Carlton's list.

That is not the coachs fault.

Look at the board. They make these decisions.
Look at the Recruitment team. They drafted bugger all talent and traded in ceiling players.

You get what you get from poor management and poor recruitment.

That is not the coaches fault.

I don’t think they didn’t traded for Jack Martin, he ended up going through the pre season draft. It was a free hit and his salary although high was at a time when they had cap space.

They have brought in free agents like Hewitt who has been worth it. Williams kicked 3 last night.

List issues stems from poor drafting and development.

They have some decent key players but after that it’s a massive drop off.

I agree. They have a spine and some great players that add up to about eight.
Then it drops off to bugger all.

Whether it be Voss's fault or not, he'll take the fall - sooner rather than later I feel.

 

[The King!]

Carlton keep picking Francis Evans lol he is woeful
