Sad to see Betts go, but refreshing as well. Garlett, Menzel and even to a lesser degree Buckly can craft their trade. The clubs hand needed to be forced to change the dynamics off the team.
Believe Carlton are trying to trade Hampson to Hawthorn for Shane Savage.
I would keep Kane Lucas and...
2011 comes down to Brett Ratten.
The players (proven or with upside) are there, it is up to him to extract the best and most consistent football out of them.
We have a workable forward line
Warnock and Kreuzer can hold the ruck effectively
Midfield is top 6, and a fit Lucas and...
For me on the surface we needed to give him game time pure and simple.
I noted bad kicking, but noted flashes of hard running and busting some packs.
Other underlying reasons most of us would not be aware of.
If he is offered $100,000 more a year so be it - good luck
Find us a player...
Without devoting a thread on its own to this, and without being damning or over reactive, I was alarmed to hear a close in law who took the boys for a pre season boot camp tell me he bumped into four of the boys last night. After the camp he did have some rapport with the boys.
Unfortunately...
Yeah - wonder how family day will go?
Would you let your kids look at them in eye - no chance
Our club is (should be) in damage control, and it needs to discussed with the players today!
We now set up as forward team.
Fev gone, you don't replace that, you come from a different angle.
It doesn't stop players leading, marking and goaling, it just means that our play will come more from mid fielders running through 50 and forwards marking or crumbing inside 50 and goaling...
Looking at
Pick 12 - Bulldogs
Everitt and Pick 31 - Blues
Possible exchange of another unwanted player or late picks
Not sure, but if it goes through then we know we are covered in all areas and it is up to the club to develop a TEAM
Re: Brock Mclean
Word is he is going to call it quits.
McLean would be a great asset, and it is based on the decision that the club probably feel that the type of player we need will not be available at Pick 11, or we have many options when we reenter in the second round.
Whilst...
With Warnock / Hampson rucking, Kreuze to CHF:
Jacobs and second round pick to Port for Boak.
In this case Lade has retired, Jacobs has upside given his start to the season, and our Second Pick could get a descent Victorian Midfielder home.
Pick 11 and Fish to Bulldogs for Lake (late...
The question is?
Is the addition of an extra pick early (priority pick) at the expense of the development of a number of players as clubs look at "list management" (losing to obtain a priority pick)?
Answer
Who knows - maybe
No worries we can play you off a forward flank.
Can you send me your details please and log into Talking Carlton and PM and or add your details to the Forum Game thread.
Thanks
Barnesy
Be corrected then.
Don't insult me....
I am Carlton through and through.
Have a look at the links I have posted on Talking Carlton, see the historical input I have had. That in itself should be enough.
Why would I make all that effort I am making, referencing to other sites to verify the...
Some more links to confirm the feeling of these games:

Get on board and make a difference!!
With these forum games usually it's a case of getting the most obvious and available ground early to allow people to organise themselves.
Historically Glenferrie Oval was used but the ground has been in ordinary condition, Gosch's is in good nick and generally accessible.
Other forums play...
Hi,
Traditionally we ( Blues fans) take on other forums in a social game of footy.
This is moving towards being more formalised as we move forward but still remains open to all football abilities now and in the future.
The following link outlines a game coming up on:
Sunday Feb 8...
This is a real test case for free agency.
Apparently Warnock has indicated his preference for Carlton, so that also must be considered.
Is Pick 24 unreasonable? No
Is Pick 24 fair ? Not according to Fremantle which is ok as well.
The players association will keep an intriguing eye...
You need to look at:
Kosi - St Kilda
Fisher - Carlton
Hall - Sydney
Thompson - Kangaroos
You need to check out the VFL SANFL and WAFL to see what surprise packets you can give a go.
Kosi has question marks of course but may need just a fresh start.
Fisher has high work rate...
We need to be aware of the salary cap.
I don't hate the idea, but it depends on what other works are in the pipeline.
If Warnock does arrive, well Cloke and Kruezer maybe earmarked to help up front more often.
That in itself may change the idea on Kosi.
If Warnock is not arriving...
