Past #5: Curtis Taylor - delisted after 68 NM games/30 NM goals - almost got Harry Styles in a NM jumper - thanks Curtis

If he isn't willing to put the work in at the gym (like Stephenson) then I don't think we should bother wasting another year on him.

He has potential, but he is pissing it away with poor professionalism off field.

 

[hilly]

What's going on? Gone to Saints yet or not?

Won't know until trade week starts. Even then he might move as a DFA.

If he gets a lifeline I cruelly hope he doesn't make it. Maybe I'm wrong about him (along with many other posters) but he seems like he has perennially coasted for years in a squad where just being fit and available is good enough for regular blocks of games. It actually makes me mad.

situation. Wood had battled some serious injuries and was clearly mentally cooked. His picture was in the wikipedia article for "needing a fresh start". Comparatively, Taylor's picture was there for the article on "need's to unstick their thumb from youknowwhere."

you’d think players like taylor and stephenson would be embarrassed being the same size from their debut years but apparently not.

Not really, its how they roll. Getting owned by tsatis was the icing in the cake.

Yes all 60kg of him.

Good summary and the nostra thumbs down gives it even more credibility.

Bailey turnover twig Scott too

Bloke gut runs like a demon though, anyone that questions his application is a fool.

 

[RightWingRoo]

Bailey is a stayer with a turn of foot, think a Caulfield/Melbourne cup horse. Not super quick, but certainly not one paced.
Curtis is an off-season grinding handicapper.
If you can't or won't put on size, your running ability needs to be a weapon. That isn't the case for Curtis, he ain't going to make it as an AFL footballer.

They're not the same size. Well sleevo maybe.

Taylor's arms are probably twice as big as they were when he got here. have a look at how skinny he was when he arrived. He was a twig. He's not huge but he's put on significant size for a twig.


He's now a branch.

Yes, that was embarrassing for him.

The new Trevor Barker

 

[Arthur Cloke]

CT arrived at the club with a huge bag of tricks. His first 10 games were his best. Not uncommon for young men arriving at Arden St. The joint just sucks the life out of ya.
But let me tell you a story:

I just spent 6 weeks in a Denpasar hospital after developing a grapefruit sized DVD in my right leg. Which is bad enough on its own, but being a natural right footer, you can imagine the panic rifling through the Cloke camp. The nursing staff weren't half bad, but there was one young Kiwi nurse who hummed Dave Dolby's 80's hit, Slice of Heaven, every single time she bathed me. This really started to dig into my skin, so when I heard her approach my room, I'd roll by bed-pan at her feet, Trevor Chappel underarm style. Inevitably, the pan, and/or its contents, would strike her below the knee roll. I would then turn to whoever was in my room, whether it was other nurses, doctors, other patients or their visitors, & appeal DK Lillee style. She soon got it. I haven't spoken to her since I left.

North Melbourne confirms four list changes

North Melbourne has informed Curtis Taylor, Bigoa Nyuon, Tyler Sellers and Hamish Free they will not be offered contracts beyond 2024

[El Capuano]

I remember in his first season he was taking nice grabs and kicking goals from 50. He improved his conditioning over the years but nothing else.

Farewell sweet prince. May your future be bathed in Spring Carnival marquee passes.

Reckon he'll be there next year if he wants to be.

Something changed ... last I heard he was told turn up to pre-season in good nick and you're a chance to get another deal.

 

[bhoysdontcry67]

What could have been… had high hopes for him his first 2 seasons.

Could it be we have confirmation of someone else coming to the club?

CT had all the tools to make it, when he began I thought we had one and a steal too. Although I honestly thought he saved himself late this season, he really only has himself to blame for not having a footy career any more. There wasn’t an easier club ever in the history of the game to get a game at and he blew it.

 

[Makeshift Park]

7 spots cleared, but we were two over to start with.

So at a minimum:

Pick 2
Pick 22
Pick 40
Pick 58/rookie
Darling
