Off to the hawks he goes
Wasn’t he talked up as a potential first round pick in his draft year?
What did he do in junior footy that made him look promising? I never saw any part of his game that seemed great or a weapon.
Caleb Poulter Draft Profile

Good midfielder at the right time. He looked good in 2021 but faded in 2022. Poulter always seemed old for his age and the development never really progressed. He should find a home in the AFL and may well go on to achieve bigger and better things. But with our midfield brigade, he's not needed at the time. All the best to him.
I don’t notice anything about Poulter in that presser.Papers were stamped after the Footscray game. Go back & watch Fly's presser. Thought he had something. Maybe he does but not with us.
He didn't mention Poulter by name but he said that he wanted 22 players playing the Collingwood way and he didn't have that. Poulter was dropped after playing 1 game. Whatever he did or didn't do seems to have been damningI don’t notice anything about Poulter in that presser.
Think you’re drawing a long bow here. Poulter wasn’t good enough over the whole year I doubt that game played much significance.He didn't mention Poulter by name but he said that he wanted 22 players playing the Collingwood way and he didn't have that.

YOu could be right, but having had a soft spot for him, I was concerned for him thenThink you’re drawing a long bow here. Poulter wasn’t good enough over the whole year I doubt that game played much significance.
Wasnt the only one that had a problem that game. And wasn't the only one dropped.He didn't mention Poulter by name but he said that he wanted 22 players playing the Collingwood way and he didn't have that. Poulter was dropped after playing 1 game.

That’s all us. There are some posters who watch the VFL games, and they are worth their weight in gold when they share their insights.Why do these threads about specific players not see consistent activity until after they're gone?

Heard he was not putting 100% into his Career at Collingwood
So just 99% then? lolHeard he was not putting 100% into his Career at Collingwood
Pretty obvious what TD meant.So just 99% then? lol
If only he didn't leave that 1% at home every morning.
Poulter lacks duck.You mean the “all duck & no dinner” game style.
Tall, moved well, nice ball skills.Wasn’t he talked up as a potential first round pick in his draft year?
What did he do in junior footy that made him look promising? I never saw any part of his game that seemed great or a weapon.
You think living with crisp would allow him giving anything but 100% He put everything into training sessions from what I saw. Maybe he was just unlucky with list spots wise. It happens.Pretty obvious what TD meant.

Great runner and hard worker, but his disposal when he has the ball was something that worried me this year. Just seemed to hack it. Doesn't quite have the composure. Definitely has some way to go developing in terms of those moments. I'm not sure quite he was a wingman. I would have tried him in another position. Half back? Some time in the middle?At the moment, he's a receiver who doesn't use the ball very well. Even without many injuries, we still used 36 players this year. With limited list spots, clubs just can't afford to carry blokes who are a long way away, which Poulter is, unless their ceiling is very high. There will be increasing oportunities for mature agers due to the lower list numbers menaing most of the list has to be ready to play. If he develops his game, he might get another shot down the track.
He's either got to clean up his composure and decision making or become more contested. Seems likeable and may be a shot down the track if he sticks with it and develops his game.Great runner and hard worker, but his disposal when he has the ball was something that worried me this year.
