Speculation Matt Owies

[Sqotty from office works]

I actually thought he took a step forward this year. Just seemed to be overall cleaner and tightened up his ball use

Correct. Attacking A+
On the downside teams march the ball out of our forward line with owies having absolutely zero defensive skills

 

[hawkman]

Apparently told by Carlton to consider his options

Sounds like Blues have a bit going on. Kennedy, Young and Owies all told to look elsewhere.

A rumour posted the other day was that Owies, Kennedy, Young AND Cerra have been told to explore other options. Would be an interesting off season to move that many senior players on

Are Carlton going to target a small forward? I'm trying to work out who is going to kick the goals other McKay and Curnow

Hoping Joe Berry. Would be better than any of our other spuds even if it would be his 1st year. I'm sure the club would have some options lined up for next year if they're moving any of these players on though.

What Walsh said, but I’d add that Moir is a genuine threat once he has a full preseason under his belt

This one would hurt to lose for anything less than a 2nd rounder, but given you more or less got Ginnivan for free for that stupid Pies trade I’m not sure what we could demand

For a club that is probably targeting a flag, I'm not sure that is enough

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Do think for a while he had an offer on his lap, asked Carlton to match or get near it and they told him to get stuffed. I think just a matter of who made that offer which I suspect we find out soon. Gut feel is it is Essendon

I agree with you, Motlop is the other I see likely to lift but can’t see it being enough

Would hope we’d have something in the pipeline

Hawks have:
Watson, Lewis, Dear
Moore, Chol, Ginnivan

And Macdonald first rotation

That’s more likely

 

[HavUEvaSeenTheRain]

They’ll try and build it out of Fogarty, Williams, Motlop, Hollands and hopefully Moir. It’s a massive weakness.
Durdin and Cottrell playing for their careers could become handy defensive options at best.

Happy to give them Murphy and McHenry for a half eaten dim sim.

I’ll take the dim sim.

Johnson plus our 2nd rounder to the Blues.

Seems odd to let him go completely but Carlton fans should welcome him not being in first team plans next year. Reminds me of 2018 when Fasolo was probably our second best forward behind Elliott heading into the year, and the coaches just decided they wanted a completely different forward line and he wasn't part of it. We got smaller and quicker, and reaped the benefits. Moir, Silvagni and Williams and possibly Kemp will have supporters forget about Owies quickly.

A good summation. Not a complete deadbeat but not what the Blues need next to Curnow Mckay etc to get the best from our forward mix imo.

Think you would need to add in the half eaten dim sim to give that trade any value
