If you had the chance?

[R1KSTA]

Hey my fellow Carlton supporters.
If you had the change to pick one former Carlton player(at their best) to slot into our side at the moment who would it be and why?

Personally i would love to see Greg Williams because he was just an absolute gun midfielder (and can drift forward every once in a while and slot some goals on the board for us)

the full back of the century that could kick goals for me SOS

 

[Captain Judd]

Kouta in his prime. Nobody and i repeat nobody could stop him...

i was actually going to say him as my 2nd choice after seeing him today at the saints training!!
brings back so many memories!!

Stephen Silvagni - Just an absolute lock at FB, who could be depended upon week in week out to take the oppositions best forward. Wayne Johnston would run a very close second. Just adds that absolute accross HF, and can move into the midfield as well. Also has that bit of mongrel in him, that we unfortunately lack right now.

Doormat - our kicking out problems solved. Never saw him miss a player. Plus he's the best Carlton player I've seen, pretty self indulgent I know.

John Nicholls. We're desperate for a big ruckmen, imagine the service he would give to judd, murphy, gibbs & stevens

I think he was only 6ft 2 inches but - shorter than Cloke?

 

[CarltonFan]

the man was a gorrilla. he would easily outbody any opposition ruckmen in todays game.

 

[The Coach]

The centre bounce rule is not going to suit him.

 

[sherb]

I`ll say Swan McKay just to be different.

Extremely versatile and highly talented big man.

Barassi

True that.

Nup.

Loved the Swan. One of the few ex-players whose media work hasn't improved in 30 years.

 

[The Coach]

I am not going to pick a favourite - just someone who would make the 'premiership' diff to our current list.

Probably any of the following: Sticks, Mike Fitz, Wallsy, Crosswell, Maclure, The Earl, Diesel (don't need a mid but would make our mids just too bloody good - a suped up equiv of what Kerr might provide), Jezza, Raggsy, .....

And without whom there would be no Jezza screamer in the 70 GF.

Did you just open my head Hannibal-style and look inside? Spooky - you are dead right.

 

[Dooky]

Callum Chambers...hands down

 

[davis_756]

Sticks would be great, Fevola + Sticks in our forward line = top 4 side

 

[Big Red is back]

the full back of the century that could kick goals for me SOS

1. SOS at the moment oh my god SOS.
2. Kouta him and Judd will be out of control

 

[sosos]

All good choices so far, but the player we need right now is Justin Madden closely follwed by Earl Spalding.

 

[uptheblues]

SOS any day of the week

 

[Dorotich]

Callum Chambers...hands down

Haha for his goals outside 50 (break the flood)??? lol

I was think more along the lines of Mark Athorn, Tim Powell etc.

In all seriousness..........KOUTA!!!!!

Could you imagine him at peak fitness, tering games apart, putting on a clinic, help us get over the line in a couple of games this year, against Tigers round 1, bummers twice and Adelaide 2 weeks ago. OH MY GOD!!! Just the thought of it.

Geez we'd be sitting just nicely in the 8.

 

[Blues in 3 yrs.]

a defender is needed and would realise waite up the ground, so i would say sos, southby, doormat or peter dean. peter dean from the 95 granny when he would have broken every bone in his body to win

 

[Faz 2000]

A prime Silvagni would improve our backline substantially, a prime Kouta (from that short but magical period of off-the-scale football) would make any side better, but I reckon a prime Kernahan would make our team. The CHF, leadership and physical presence we lack. I'd have Kernahan captain of just about any side in any era. He was leadership personified.

 

[Kooley]

andrew merrington. quality big man who could play forward, back and in the ruck.
