This Should Be The Carlton Team

[Louie22]

Houlihan ,Thornton, Edwards

Lappin, Bower, Hartlett

Russell, Stevens, Walker

Kennedy, Whitnall, Waite

Betts, Fevola, Fisher

French, Kouta, Murphy

McClaren, Bryan, Blackwell, Davis

A lot of Supporters on this board may disagree but this is the only direction we must take we might cop some hidings but i rather get beaten with youth then recycled hacks.

Ps The use of Josh Kennedy in his first game was a disgrace, how long was he on the ground for a quarter. What a joke!

 

[Mentallo]

Houlihan is wasted in the Back Pocket.
Should be on the ball or forward of it.
Nice concept, will not happen.
Lets hope for Better weather for J kennedy this week vs the Bombers so he can show us what he has got.

Agree with the sentiment but!!!

Justin Davies maybe?

 

[saint13]

correct me if im wrong, but in regards to bryan, i have heard he has lost his way down at the bullants.
a source has told me he is lacking dedication and that the wheels have fallen off the big fella.

again will stand corrected if wrong

Won't see him for a while, long term hamstring injury which is still another month away. Suspect we won't see him AFL level until near the end of the year IF he stays injury free.

Like the idea though.

 

[SMOO]

Take Kouta out, replace with a carbon rod and we have a team.

 

[kickgoals]

edwards cant get a kick in the bullies twoes you idiot

 

[HBF]

Way too harsh you dill. Take a look at a few games before he had his serious knee injury and you'll see the real Kouta.

His best is well behind him, but he is still contributing to the team.

 

[Hu$$ey]

That's the 2008 team bar Kouta, maybe French and Lappin.

 

[pumped]

Not a bad team Louie. Here is the side I would like to see by seasons end.

b; Davies Hartlett Thornton
hb Lappin Walker Bower
c Simpson Kouta Waite
hf Stevens Kennedy Fisher
f Betts Fevola Whitnall
r McLaren Houlihan Murphy

res French Blackwell Carazzo Russell

Just realised it is a very similar 22 to yours.

I would love a pre 2001 Kouta to play in our team. But it 2006. No influence on matches, zero influence in leadership in our team. Its harsh i know. I am a big kouta fan but at the moment in a inefectual player

This is all good, but I'd like to see Bentick and Livo in the mix. Here's mine...

I don't rate McLaren. I think Whitnall and Kennedy should change up with French for ruck duties. 4 young quick guys coming off the bench to rotate through the midfield and we might be on the right track. I still think our backline needs a bit of maturing. I think Livo needs a run for 8-10 games for a full game. If he isn't good enough we need to delist him. He's been in an out like a yo-yo for too long. Hopefully Bower and Hartlett can develop into 200 game champion Carlton backman. I can't be more pleased with Walkers development as a backman, but not sure he'll have the size to hold down CHB for many years, but is our best option at the moment for most CHF.

I look forward to getting to every game this year and keeping my chin up for the boys. I don't think the pain will persist for too much longer...

my 2 cents...

He had a fiar run for nearly half the game. But to be honest, he was a bit overcome in his first game. Playing in a flooded forward line with the ball just being bombed is not the ideal way to play this bloke!

Best of luck on Sunday...I tipped the Blues so I hope its the first of many wins for the blues on Sunday.
