Our lack of established forward line options is so serious, we even lack all the letters in the word!
Ack = acknowledgement. Get with it man.
Can't tackle what you can't see!
Yep and people saying he needs to play VFL first makes no sense
Will Jagga play VFL and need to prove himself first? I doubt it. Did Ollie?
Pre season, match sims and structure will mean more. I don’t know if Wilson will play early but names like Wilson Ben Campo Lucas Campo Lord Binns Moir Lemmey etc that will be pushing and I am hoping that the MC seriously consider a few of them

Yep, doubt the player we rate as the best in a so called super draft plays VFL. Particularly one who is rich in qualities we lack such as pace and polish.
There are a few who are still a little raw who I think will be playing plenty of AFL this year purely because their talents and strengths are strong in areas we are weak in.

Inside Carlton | A behind-the-scenes look at pre-season camp
As tough as it gets. Get an up-close look at everything that went on during the Blues’ 2024 pre-season camp in a special edition of Inside Carlton.
I think of the younger brigade (<21 yo) the players prioritised for AFL games this year would include - Cowan, Ollie, Motlop, Jagga, Lord and Moir.
I think Binns and Wilson will still find it difficult to get a lot of AFL exposure this year being behind these six imo.
Also with experienced players like Haynes, JSOS and Docherty available the opportunities will be even more limited.

Should be no pecking order in age, where they were drafted or when they arrived
Of course some have better talent than others, like Walsh playing day 1, which doesn't mean others don't need to find consistency at the lower level
Ben’s kicking is a long way off afl standard. Just needs to sort that and nothing else.

Not actually Brad Fisher
Would you say it's more difficult to show consistency in a team that is struggling or is that no excuse?
Always helps when you are surrounded by better players and continuity of those types
But development is never linear, nor a given
I like what we have added as VFL sign on players
