Was that his fitness or was that our coaching?
Cincotta, like a heap of players, will get his chances in 2025. If he takes those chances he will be on the list in 2026 and if he doesn't he won't. Like a lot of players who's contracts expire next year.We are running into list management headaches.
I think end of next year we will be looking at offloading a few.
I'm expecting two mids to go. Carroll will be one. Cerra if he can't get fit and possibly Hewett as well, same circumstances as Kennedy.
We will have Cripps, Walsh, Pick 3, Camporeale, Lord and either Cerra or Hewett on the list with Walker being drafted. We may only offload one mid meaning only Carroll goes out and Hewett and Cerra both stay but only if things are working out well. I suspect you will be right, pick 3 and Lord push Hewett out and he will want to look around for more game time and we will be desperate for list spots.
I think Lord becomes best 22 very quickly and the player we get at pick 3 should be in the best 22 as well. Walker the following season should be the same and Camporeale could be knocking the door down pretty hard so it's not hard to see how we will move on at least one mid possibly 3. If Cerra's hamstrings are no good it will be him. Hewett likely because of his pace and mobility, same as Kennedy. I think Carroll only stays on for depth this season and goes the next.
Forward line needs a clean out. Fogarty, Cottrell, Fantasia, Durdin, Motlop and Williams. At the moment they are all C-D grade players. Stupidly for us we have given some of them rather long contracts. Motlop and Fantasia are the only ones out of contract. Durdin and Fogarty the year after that and insanely Cottrell is not out of contract until 2027. Austin's list management has been horrible here. Fantasia will be delisted, Motlop is 50/50. We will probably be trying very hard to make trades with the rest to get them off our books but I can not see any takers. I can see Cottrell playing only reserves football for a whole three seasons. This list management is insane.
Because of this horrible list management I think Cincotta's spot on our list is in trouble. I like Cincotta but we are clogged up with second rate forwards on long contracts and an ever improving midfield and we will want lost spots.
There are a lot of players I would prefer Cincotta over but I have a bad feeling, due to being hamstrung by dumb contracts that he may not be on the list in 2026.
Think they might’ve got the Carroll’s the wrong way around
Jack can play and at worst was great depth. Too good to just de-list.

Seems we won't fill them all at the RD as we'll be trialling for at least one spot via SSP3 Rookie vacancies
Played in 15 games this year….
Kennedy and Carroll featured in a combined amount of 39 games
Campo and pick 3 won’t deliver that…maybe Lord is really being elevated by the LM group
Hope Walsh and Cerra hold up or we are in serious trouble
Apart from E. Hollands, Cooper Lord, Ben Camporeale, and pick 3?Don’t get delisting Jack Carrol, as we have no senior midfield depth.
So, we're assisting Bot or other teams who refused to trade for him but not CFC. Why doesn't that surprise me.Bot probably has a chance to get picked up as a DFA, the other 2 not so much.
Jack Carroll would gave been on the bare minimum salary wise. It's not salary cap related , it's just list spot related. We've allowed ourselves 4 picks at the draft (pick 3, 38 and Camporeale brothers) . And that's after adding Haynes to the list and upgrading Boyd.That’s pretty disappointing re Jack.
Not too often you’d see a player that played every game that season and another that played 15 get let go for practically nothing.
Gotta assume it’s all salary cap related, but man, the pressure on pick 3 to be good from the jump just slightly increased.
Not necessarily, depends on if we sign DGB or Phillips from the Hawks to the main list.Does this confirm that we’re taking Lucas in the draft?
I think if no one takes him he can be a prelisted rookie and we can take someone else if we want.Does this confirm that we’re taking Lucas in the draft?
He couldn't run out games consistently at any level. Has talents, but that limited him a lot.Think they might’ve got the Carroll’s the wrong way around

Just gives us flexibility.Does this confirm that we’re taking Lucas in the draft?
Don't get it. He somehow has this hold over Carlton fans that most other players don't. He's progression has stalled and one that doesn't have injury as a reason. Dunno. Just a meat and potatoes midfielder where the meat is 'lean' and the potatoes were boiled and served plain.Think they might’ve got the Carroll’s the wrong way around

Understand the point, I suspect we believe we'll be able to support the following "pure mids" Cripps, Walsh, Cerra, Hewett, Pick #3 and Ollie Lord with contributions from flankers or half forwards like Docherty, Elijah Hollands and even Ollie Hollands, Blake Acres, Zac Williams etc.Don’t get delisting Jack Carrol, as we have no senior midfield depth.
