For a whole host of reasons, Perryman nominating Port has now become critical in our ability to bring in Houston.
I'm tipping the moment Perryman chooses Port, you will see a Carlton nomination by the Houston camp.
Has done something like seven hamstring's since he was drafted.
The kid has talent but please not another player we trade in with dodgy hammies; Cerra, Saad, McGovern, Martin, Williams...
I can't take it anymore! :'(
After all that went down with him and the accusations of 'Brand Petracca' etc, deciding not to attend their B&F (which just happens to coincide with the beginning of trade period) does leave a bit to the imagination...
I know there's been videos put out but I wouldn't be completely comfortable...
I just hope Austin & Voss are completely aligned with their view on Houston.
In other words, hoping it's not just Voss driving this simply because he's had a relationship with Dan in the past.
I'm all for bringing Houston in providing the LM team are 100% on board. Austin should be the one...
Doch is in arguably his last year (2025) and wasnt really playing true half back in 2023 anyway.
Williams is a liability in defence and I'd say will be persevered with as a forward (particularly if Owies leaves)
Newman & Saad have evolved into more lockdown defenders albeit are both generally...
Acknowledging recency bias but yes I believe it would have to.
Given that he would not only be skipper but to have led a club that has been at rock bottom and starved of premiership success for so long - I think a Cripps led premiership would rank as one of, if not the most special flags in...
He's now on Carlton's Mount Rushmore along with Sticks...trying to choose the other two becomes a little more difficult...
KERNAHAN
CRIPPS
NICHOLS
JESAULENKO
DOULL
SILVAGNI
BRADLEY
JUDD
WILLIAMS
KOUTAFIDES
SOUTHBY
That's more than double what Charlie Curnow received...
Using Brownlow votes for measuring a player's draft value is a little foolish.
I'll go on the fact that Houston has been All Australian the last two years. That's a pretty solid achievement given the depth of talent in the game. He's...
*Does my current coach not play me in the finals when I’m perfectly fit - tick
*Would I play senior footy every week and be one half of an elite defensive duo with All-Australian Jacob Weitering - tick
*Do I get to play long term with my brother trying to achieve the ultimate with him by my...
Geez there's some dribble on this thread lately...
Anyone who goes to a session will quickly ascertain Walsh is the hardest trainer in the team - he's an animal on the track and have been told unequivocally by Luke Power he has lifted the standards of mid week preparation significantly.
Quite...
Interesting one developing here. Suspect our LM team are monitoring it very closely...
The two DeKoning bros playing together for the Blues would be unbelievable.
I don't think there is any doubt Houston would prefer to come to Carlton. (this seems to be what some of the more credible journos are reporting also)
Reunites with Voss (apparently enjoyed a good relationship), best mates with JSOS and a few other Carlton boys and positionally we would have...
I actually love it. Love the debate and the possibilities that get explored all with the idea of improving our list & performance.
It’s what makes our game so great and the fan engagement within this period is next level.
Trade period in my opinion has become more important than draft week...
Suggesting to Kennedy, Lewis Young & Owies that they're welcome to explore more senior opportunity is certainly not desperate.
The fact is, this playing group has finished the last three H&A season's in 9th, 5th & 8th. Five teams that finished below us in 2023 have jumped us. It's hardly mega...
Sounds like Sydney are keen which seems a little strange.
Heeney, Hayward, Papley in that forward line already.
Maybe they see him as a Luke Parker replacement.
All fair points but have to disagree on SDK only worth 1 x first rounder.
2019: First Round Pick.
2022: Premiership Player, Awarded Geelong's Best Young Player
2023: Named Full Back in the Best Under 22 AFL Team.
204cm 23yo and about to hit his peak like his brother has in the last couple of...
Delisting Marchbank, Akuei and advising a contracted Lewis Young to 'look around' would suggest we're into a KPD...
Highly, highly unlikely we could pry SDK out (they would want multiple first rounders). He is Chris Scott's love child.
Off topic but watch the last 2 minutes of that Adelaide game (if you can stomach it).
Calamities everywhere.
The Owies debacle was directly after a dropped sitter for McKay.
Our stoppage setup which resulted in the Berry goal.
We then get an inside 50 where Charlie drops a pretty regulation...
