Amen brother. Seen enough, not upto it. Whilst the likes of Kennedy form crucial on ball structure, we are going nowhere. Need to fast track Paddy and hope we can pick up 2 gun midfielders in the draft. We are going to desperately need a quality ruck man to cover or possibly replace Kreuzer. The journey men we have relied upon will no longer cut it.

I love our grey away strip....matches my mood
Oh and Kerridge had a better game than Murph

Just shows that BB did not learn too much in his time there. To make matters worse, we helped them recruit Mitchell by doing a deal that helped them.

Just on the ruck situation....I reckon it might be time to plan for life after Kruez.
Can we somehow make a play for Pruess?
Pruess - yes please

I can't see Norf giving him to us. No doubt he can play at VFL level, but can he take the next step.
Did alright last year from memory. Then Goldy came back. Liked his aggression.
We should move Kreuzer on if we can find a decent offer for him this offseason.
I’ve always loved big Kreuze and hate how injury and the teams success has heavily impacted his career but I think it’s time we moved on.
Unfortunately he’s too unreliable in my opinion and he’s not exactly young anymore.

Charlie needs to have more impact on the scoreboard and Harry needs not to go missing for large patches for me to be 100 percent convinced but it's all there and we have two of the best young key forwards in the business aged 21 or younger. Personally, I wouldn't trade either of those two for any of the other KP prospects from that year, which seems to be turning into a superdraft for KP prospects, particularly forwards. I'm very happy with the way we handled those first three picks, in year's past we would have just drafted Josh Schache at number one as 'savior of the year' and would have virtually squandered any other draft or trade assets through cloudy judgement.

WA calling team on GuesSEN were going bonkers over H & C in the first half. Saying Carlton fans would be loving what they bring for the next decade.
Why is that unpopular Thy?

oh **** - I know I'm getting on but now I'm dropping random posts into random threads..................
It's segue, Thy.
Glad this is the unpopular thread.
Not keen on Preuss at all as we have bigger holes to fill and Lobbe and Phillips are arguably as capable as Preuss in the ruck and around the ground. Plus we have Casboult who could be trained to Ruck now that harry and Charlie are blooded.
Norfs going much better with Goldy than Preuss - as he has not played one game this year, and Preuss is contracted till 2020 so will not come cheap.
Yuk!

Makes sense. Move on one of our better players, who gives everything. It would be a great look for the club, trading a player who may or may not have a serious heart issue. I can see the opposition clubs queuing up. Hey why don't we trade Cripps? We could pick ensure 4 picks in the top 10. He is getting hammered every week and therefore will become an injury liability in a few years.

Phillips can't stay on the park, Lobbe is 30 next year and Cas is a liability once the ball hits the ground. We desperately need a young ruckman. Preuss is the perfect fit.
You know we did draft a young ruckman at pick 30 last year and looks impressive at this early stage .
Lobbe was very impressive yesterday if he plays like that the job is his next year if Kruez doesnt come up .

We need more than one ready made ruckman. If Kreuz can't play again, that leaves Lobbe and Phillips. TDK ain't ready to shoulder the responsibility.
Lobbe and Phillips have had their injury issues granted .
Id actually expect TDK to get some games next year and together with Mckay who can ruck id expect they will be our long term tandem ruckman in 2 years .
Think it would be a waste of a reasonably high pick say 1 of our later 2nds when we have other pressing issues .
Maybe we'll take a young ruck with a later pick or another ruckman out of favor with a later pick just cant see us giving up anything of value for a ruckman atm .
Might be wrong however .
Would they have beaten Freo?
Nope.
Watched Subi the day before and was at the Carlton game also.
Freo played when challenged, we're basically uncompetitive at the moment.
