ripGetting 625k and he still can't kick further then 35 metres.
We need to do something about our future KPD's judging by the struggles both Rowe and Jamison are having with their form, bodies, age etc.Henry Schade (Gold Coast) and Aidan Corr (GWS) should be on our radar.
They are both tall, rangy defenders and are being chased by the Dogs.
Either would be a handy addition for the future.
Takes a great hangar though...Getting 625k and he still can't kick further then 35 metres.
Agree. We totally lack Gun midfielders and if we get picks 1-3 we need a Key Forward and 2 very high class mids,Nooooooooooo, no more 2 for 1 deals or slipping down draft order.
If this Weitering kid becomes the likely no.1 pick, we finally get a gun KP player.
Option 1 - finish last
#1 pick
#12-18 pick for Henderson
Aish in PSD
Option 2 - finish second last
#2 pick
Henderson leaves in PSD and we get nothing
No Aish
So lets see picks 1,15,Aish or pick 2
hmmm for the sake of one extra 'feel good' win...
and if we finish last we get this guy

we look like going very close to wooden spoon which would give us 1, 19, 37 plus PSD number 1
is this too aggressive ?
Murphy for 10 and 25 say ?
Thomas for 35 (may have to pay some of his salary)
Walker for 30
Gives us 1,10,19,25,30,35 and 37
Aish with PSD pick 1 plus 7 more of best 37 kids in australia including Jacob Weitering
Add to the sub-27 year-old list of
Kruzer (really important 14 weeks for this guy)
Cripps
Menzel
Gibbs
Yarran
Buckley
Docherty
Boekhorst
Jaksch
Viojo Rainbow
clem smith
Giles ?
Whiley
Henderson
foster
Bell
Casboult
We're not going to get anything but a late pick (if that) for 1AW unless he turns it around dramatically. I'm not sure if it's the lack of a preseason or, more likely, its a case of the mind being willing but the body not being able to do it anymore.
It was sad watching him against Brisbane. He knew what he had to do but was physically incapable of doing it.
If we're going to rebuild hard... I wouldn't be against the idea suggested by the Adelaide poster earlier. Keeping the few players over 28 who wouldn't really fetch much in a trade but would still be serviceable for another 3-5 years (Murphy, Thomas, Walker, Simpson and Jamison).
Realistically... other than the first two we wouldn't receive anything more than a 3rd rounder. This would leave Henderson whose already held of contract negotiations, Gibbs and Yarran. I'd only be looking at trading the one this year and seeing our improvement in 2016 before throwing the other two away.
I'd rather keep the Murphs, Thomas, Jamison, etc. who are worth more to use than what we'd get back in a trade.We shouldnt trade many of the older guys just for the sake of it. We need some senior players. I think Murph still has good currency though, so we should entertain offers. He definitely should not be shipped off for nothing though.
Oh yes please.and if we finish last we get this guy

and here I was hoping that SOS would be in talks with Jake Carlisle about switching camps... Not sure I want him until the full stain of the WADA result is down..
If we can get Kruezar up and about for the rest of the season playing the footy we know he is capable off, i still reckon we are a decent chance of having a side like Sydney or Essendon offer him a 4 year deal on $550k that should still get us a first round pick as free agent compo, which will be a top 5 pick like the James Frawley situation. It would suck to lose the big man after persisting with him, but if we got a top 5 pick it could be best for both if we parted ways..
I still dont think we will finish last, probably 3rd last..
So we could end up with pick 3 & 4
Yarran to West Coast for pick 8, traded to Gold Coast for Charlie Dixon
Henderson I would like to stay, but should he wish to go would be for a first round pick, let say Freo with pick 18.
So end the trade period with picks 3, 4, 18, 21 + Charlie Dixon and I reckon every Carlton fan would be happy.. It would also give us the option of using pick 4 for Dylan Shiel and if we lost Kruezar I would look to use pick 21 to pick up a youngish (under 25) ruckmen like Daniel Gorringe, Tom Nicholls or Zac Clarke.
What round is the Weitering Cup ?
