Never mind…found this….
Carlton has added Will White to its AFL list for the 2025 season, a small forward who had a strong first season in the VFL, playing all 18 matches and finishing third in the club's best and fairest award

McKay’s defensive pressure is good.
It’s ok umpires evened it up when they paid that free kick against JSOS as he shepherded TDK’s goal.

If ‘falling over under little pressure’ was an Olympic sport he would win a gold medal. Can’t stand him.
Listening to him talk about “contest and pressure” to the players after the game made me want to smash my head against a wall. Has no ****ing clue how much the game has changed.
Please hire people with some intellect. Please.
Adam Saad couldn’t run out of sight on a dark night. His endurance is dreadful. High half forward would see him cooked sitting on the bench by 1/4 time.
Maybe when he hasn’t fallen to the ground, which is pretty damn rare.

17 or 18 and a goal and a mountain of running and at high speed and great efficiency using the ball across the forward half last night
Sam Darcy is a hell of a player rightly being praised for his around the ground marking and marking on a lead in the forward line.
But guess what? Harry McKay can play exactly the same role and has done in the past.
Two instances stood out for me last night where the doggies player (Dale) runs to about 80m t and puts a lowish pass about 30m out that Darcy has to run at and mark at highest point. I think Libba did exactly the same around the same time .
Why are we holding him inside 50 and then bombing it on his head?
That’s COACHING!!!

Bailey Dale is one of the best kicks n the AFL - we don’t have that quality.
Libba is a left footer & crafty - also something that we need. Cez is about the only decent kick in our midfield.
Our forward line has been diabolical for 10yrs with highly recommended line-coaches such as Teague, Hansen & Russell unable to make it function.
If we bring the pressure of Thursday's game to next Friday we will limit the opportunities for Darcy. We will also create opportunities to score enough times to get the chocolates. I would like TDK to be able to have a greater influence in our D50 to assist in dealing with Darcy and Naughton.
What we have to be better at is ball use, transition from defence to attack, centre-forward connectivity and accurate goal kicking. These are things that have been issues for a long time now (why?). They're limiting our opportunities to score and it feels like we always have a hand tied behind our back because of them.
Harry in is a no brainer but we need to see his best. I would leave JSOS forward and move Kempy back. Boyd in as well as White. These three inclusions make us faster. I would drop Haynes (needs to find his best in the twos), Lord (needs to play a full game in the twos) and Fogarty (has to start contributing on the scoreboard). This still leaves quite few who are lucky to remain.
Need to win this one. The players need it and so do we.

It’s the reoccurring issues in his game that still haven’t been fixed. We’re 10yrs in now
• Contesting (impose himself) / 1-hand marking attempts
• Kicking for goal
• Lack of imposing presence
There’s a lot of comparison with the brothers & their footballing. Getting paid way overs for output.

Darcy is an elite field kick. He is a far more complete footballer than McKay.
You say we don’t have anyone who can deliver like Dale but he didn’t land it in a rubbish bin, he put it in a general area. Same as Libba.
These were not extraordinary kicks they were smart kicks any half decent ammo player could have executed.
Did I mention his kicking?
But since u have Harry’s a fantastic field kick.

McKay is also a great field kick. Both our key forwards are.

Cerra was that. Boyd was in 2023 the highest rated kick in the comp exiting back 50. We killed that off last year nicely... Think it's just wrong that we don't have the talent to kick it well enough.
Boyds kicking last night was lethal through the middle. Has to come in.
Will the dogs get the rub of the green with umpires now due to Collingwood loss. Arguably we copped it too. 3 goals removed (2 from poor decisions against JSOS).

Haven’t posted for sometime. Apologies for long post.
Regardless of Darcy, l want McKay to play more CHB swinging forward with Silvagni when required.
A back line something like this:
Boyd Weitering McGovern
Cowan McKay Saad (speed & aerial strength)
A forward line something like this:
Motlop Curnow Kemp
Fogarty Silvagni Williams (with another small forward on bench)
Silvagni is stronger under ball & can bring smalls into game better than Curnow & McKay who will destroy you if they have space. Kemp still needs time to learn the craft. Silvagni is also better with the chaos ball because he can read it off the boot very well. He seems a lot stronger in the hips. If teams are on them counter, then McKay in defence will be better as Silvagni can’t close space as quickly.
Hollands interchanges onto wing/defence when required.
In the times when we smash teams and we are 35 points up early then in a blink of an eye opposition is 30 points up after flooding us & restructuring around stoppages & Voss does nothing preemptively. We should for 20 minutes as they flood, play Weitering full forward. Our strongest player under the ball. Who like Silvagni will bring the ball down to our smalls & stifle opposition counter. Play Curnow for 20 minutes as a floating defender. Among other positional changes.
These massive turnarounds must be addressed regardless. Turn the game into a grind for 20minutes. Don’t think because you are 35 points up you will be 70 points. Dumb coaching.
We struggle to play tempo footy. Especially, with the class, speed, leadership, adaptability of E Hollands, J Smith, Newman, Boyd & Cincotta missing the 1st 2 games. Along with Walsh, McKay & Curnow probably hampered/underdone. So the above option is better until he have enough players with poise & execution.
I want Voss to understand what our strengths are & how to adapt to them & understand how opposition coaches exploit our weaknesses & how to counter that. I have not seen this done satisfactorily in the time he has been coaching. l also want us to select team towards smaller than taller.
As disappointing the 1st game was, l definitely have not written season off.
