Apart from the words Tony Lynn 15 and sexy in the one sentence, Watson and afterburners were two words that I never thought I would see!!
Mate. Don't sell yourself short. "Tony Lynn 15 is not nearly as sexy as you'd expect" is a perfectly good sentence... :D

Try not to watch Jaksch too closely then. Yesterday he hit several contests then literally walked. I know his lack of second efforts has been noted before, but I had no idea it was that bad.
he doesn't look intense, I hope he really steps up next year. Looks lackadaisical. We already lack Daisy, don't need another.
 
I'd rather see Watson trying his arse off all day and getting a fair return than someone who doesn't really want to be there but has more natural ability.
Which is basically what Juddy said last year.
 
I vote we play him the next two games and sign him for another year. He at least deserves the same opportunity Liam Jones had earlier in the year!

I was kinda speed reading through the thread and read this as 'I vote we should sign him for another year and play him in the twos'. :eek:

I thought 'Haven't we already tried that'?

Is there such thing as a 'Freudian read'? :confused:
 
I am Juddy, so...
May I just say Thank you for your years of service to the Carlton FC. I have many great memories.
So sorry that your injury was the reason for retiring. please look after yourself and ensure that Oscar starts preseason this year.

Ha ha, it's funny ... as soon as I had pressed send I reread the post, and thought "why did I specify two games I could of just said final games." Ha ha! That two lead to your Freudian read!!

Edit: It would then be "I vote we sign him for another year and play him in the finals".
 
Watson runs very upright, looked a bit odd during that chase. Has he stuffed his hamstrings in the past?
Not that I'm aware of, I think it's just because he has a huge arse and massive head. Can't lean too far forward for fear of overbalancing.

Also, I think that chase down was more tactics than speed. Old mate looked over his shoulder, saw watto ambling along and never kicked into top gear. Soon as he looked away, watto turned it up to 11 (standard players third gear) and ran him down.

That big head is hiding some brain!
 
I don't think forcing players out of the club is a good idea. Stinks of Crazy Vossy

Kreuzer is passionate & talented. Yarran would be a gun in a strong side, can't see the point in selling him for unders. He should be there when Carlton becomes a strong team
 
So, Jared Rivers is done.

Does that provide extra incentive for Geelong to pony up in the Henderson trade? If reports that Carlisle to WB have any truth to them, then our suitors for Hendo are probably limited to Geelong and GWS.

Hopefully our propaganda team start pumping out some rumours about "extensive talks with GWS", give Geelong a bit of a scare that they might miss out.

The same propaganda team that brought us such pamphlets as "Jeff Garlett - we'll accept ANY offer!" and "Is Brock McLean worth a first rounder? He is now!"

Another Rising Star graduate.

The Dogs don't have the money for Carlisle. They're paying Boyd $1m a years FFS and they have to keep blokes like Bontempelli, Macrae, Stringer, Liberatore, etc. They're not about to pay out the 600k+ for a bloke with attitude problems. Carlton on the other hand, attitude problems are our MO....the club will pay him an extra $100k to make sure he brings them with him.

So what pick are we talking here? I'd be furious if we surrender our 2nd round pick for him, even if he wasn't a druggie.

His best is handy but lacks consistency. I just don't see him re-inventing himself as a 40 goal/year forward and as a defender we already have Jamison & Rowe + White, Giles, Jaksch and Fields (and possibly Weitering). Let's not let one season leaking goals overstate our need for a mature age defender. Scoring power and midfield class are bigger problems.

How do they not have the money for Carlisle but have the money for Kreuzer?

I posted this in another regarding the Dogs Cap.

Dogs have plenty of cap room still and they gave Tom Boyd that money because you have to pay a league minimum 93% (or something like that) of the Cap i think.

Even if you have a team full of spuds and blokes not worth it someone has to get the money to bring you to that league Min. It is only in 5 years etc it can bite you when you lock blokes into long term massive deals as the kids around them naturally get better also want to get paid!!

Clubs pay blokes to organize these massive dollar deals to ensure everything is ok going forward as they have a lot of responsibility as there is not a heap of room to move between the league Maximum and Minimum which has to be met.


Unless you are Sydney of course with BS Cola allowances.

What happens in the next 3 years will test them regarding their kids but as of RIGHT NOW they will have the Cap space to afford Matty on a big deal.
