Heard Sheldrick was keen to stay and work his way into the Sydney team + the likely departure of Parker.

12 months ago Camporeale boys were highly rated and we loaded up on picks in the 60's to ensure we could bid match.
Fast forward to today and we've got three picks in the 60's we probably don't need anymore.
Hanging onto Jack Martin just to get another one seems pointless.

Having a late 3rd/4th round pick so we can on trade to 2025 and 2026 to match future bids.

Cody Walker
Pinning hopes to be a top 3 talent. But we don't know what overhaul AFL f/s and academy will do. So might as well squeeze as many late picks for bids.

As opposed to what?
Some chance of goodwill at a destination club. If we are using a club in negotiation for (say Houston) we may get some consideration for giving SSP (rookie) access to Martin. So many permutations these days.
Or it simply could be his body is as bad as it seems…

Very good little player, he’s got some tricks
Martin is a weird one, don’t see how rationally there’s interest, but we cut him for nothing.
Something is better than nothing even if it’s 4th round.
Think the “interest” line could be a favor to his manager.

Club would be feeling a lot lighter after todays delistings
Frustrating that we all accept Ben is going to be bid late and cost a token pick. Other than questions raised on his kicking, the kid was dominant in both club and rep football.
Do not under estimate 6 state league U18 games for 6 three vote games and multiple BOG’s in Futures and interstate games. I am sure Austin is not “banking” on a third round or even late second bid.

Isn't he out of contract? He wants to go... What am I missing? We can't force someone to sign a contract right
Again. Same question. What something? This season was the last on his contract? Why would he sign another one.

Is there some Freo player that both we and Freo might be looking at in a trade? If so, maybe part of a goodwill exercise in that regard...?
Someone has mooted a multi club scenario to me involving us offering pick 11 and through multi club scenarios bringing us a later first back. Not my rumour to share and I am sure plenty to play out even if has some credence. If it comes to fruition we would get a pick, not a player.

I understand he has very little very but something is better than nothing. Even factoring in goodwill building with the manager or other clubs it seems silly to give him away for nothing when value could’ve been extracted.
Agree Another All Australian is not essential because
1. No Guarantee he is All Australian Next Year
2. Long Contract and borderline veteran
3. Squeezes salary Cap
4. Doesn't fix transition issues with 1 player. It is as much system
5. He is a flanker, which are a dime a dozen, developed internally
6. Save the big money for mids and key positions
7. Carlton does not have a high strike rate on this stuff
Don’t know why we can’t in these situations. He made great money for little in return and at least could let us see if we can get just a token future 4th rounder at least.
Carlton too often the last few years just too nice in the list management side of things.

There is a gaping hole in defence.
Please fill it Austin. And no, i don't want another flaky soft scared floater type from your old club.

I guess we're not going to keep kidding ourselves that Martin and Marchbank are about to get right and have their best footy ahead of them.

Just don't say this too loud. We might have to match a higher bid!
Ben is a gun at getting the ball but will have to improve his kicking to be effective at AFL level.
The draft rewards the guys who need the least development. Which is fair enough - maybe he doesn't improve.
Charlie and Harry were both picked after Sam Weideman and Josh Schache. Let's not stress about draft order.

I've got a bad feeling Austin is planning to hold onto Sam Durdin.
What a joke.
Sad to see cunners and marchy go though. Bodies just weren't up to the punishment of AFL football.
