List Mgmt. Welcome Harley Reid (Pick 1, 2023 National Draft)

[eaglevision]

 

[Big_Birdy]

No we won’t, we won’t have Cripps, McGovern, Kelly, Yeo will be 32.

If we replace them with B graders our future would look extremely poor. Poor enough for a player like Harley potentially looking around and thinking “this mob aren’t going anywhere anytime soon”.

We need to hit every single pick in order for
Us to be looking like a decent team in 3 years.

I don’t think Cripps, and to a lesser extent Kelly, not playing is going to have the effect you think it is.

Irrespective we need to find 15 B22 players who are quality enough to play in a team making finals.

The number is probably more than that given clubs need 30+ on their list due to availability etc.

15 players from those we have drafted in last 2 years not in the AFL side and those we will draft in the next 3.

It’s a big ask.

I actually reckon Schofield was talking about Harley with his "didn't follow instructions" clip.

Reid probably spent the most time on Cripps out of anyone, and obviously didn't do enough defensively IMO.

I'm sure a lot of it wasn't Harleys fault either. Only so much you can do as a mid who hasn't completed 1 actual AFL season, let alone pre season and you're matched up with a Brownlow medalist, AA and AFL veteran.



Still baffled Yeo wasn't told to run with Cripps all game, regardless of whether he rested forward or not.

I doubt it. I don’t think he’d be nearly as Frank and scathing about a first year player.

My sense is it was probably Yeo post first quarter. Schofield said something about how Carlton changed their positioning in second quarter, and that’s when Harley spent most of his time on Cripps. Yeo was on him earlier, and was doing decently.

It would be astounding if Schofield put that at the feet of a first year player.

Zero issues with not tagging Cripps if we played a style based on offense.

Made no sense if we were going back to the kick mark trash. Wanted to vomit after the first 2 min of the game. I thought we were past that.

Having said that, Simmons abomination of a game style was never going to be eradicated in 4 weeks. It probably shouldn’t have been surprising we reverted back to it. It may not have been what Schofield wanted.

I could see it if Schofield told Harley to just run around with Cripps for a bit and get a feel of what it's like to man up one of the best in the game. Like you I assume he's got the senior mids in the gun for that comment.

Idk. To me Yeo was on Yeo early and then things changed.

I thought at the time it was a dig at Yeo.

 

[Corn69]

People: How dare the players not react to Hewett getting knocked out

Same people: Harley needs to tone it down

**** off. He needs to ramp it up and drag the rest of his useless ****ing teammates with him.

This.

Remember thinking if we had Harley last year during that game, De Goey wouldn't have made it to the next contest and Harley would have risked suspension to make a statement.

Kid wears his heart on his sleeve. Needs to stick around during these hard times, because the good times will guarantee a premiership, Brownlow, and captainship. Not to mention, 50,000+ fans cheering every home game.

Looked like they reverted to it after coughing up a stupid number of turnovers from rudimentary disposal in the corridor. Players appeared to lose confidence as the game went on.

Given the conditions going handball happy through the corridor was stupid in the first place. Hardly a shocked so many missed.

Worked just fine for Carlton.

Players missing 2m handballs to teammates completely open can't be blamed on the conditions, just pathetic skills.

 

[Jako Darling]

He was at the casino a couple of hours after the game with some very questionable company. Not the best look..

You mean ufc guys? But stuff like this needs to separated with work life balance in mind.

The media has been respectful of not stalking him throughout the day. Let's hope that doesn't change

To be fair Carlton missed heaps too, but they at least didn't fumble it every time they went to pick up the ball.

True. We were served up a shit sandwich of both missed easy handballs and fumbles.

Woukd love to hear what you describe as “questionable company”?

Ambassador for UFC or similar so guessing might be a group from Sundays event .

Harley played well on Sunday, looked good .

 

[Mulldogg]

Copped another melee fine. Third offence so $5,000 down to $3,125 with an early plea.

At least some Carlton players also got fined this time.

He’s going to make some serious coin over his career but maybe he needs to start saving his pennies and not constantly be involved in pointless wrestling off the ball.

Assuming it was for the retaliation for Newman’s dog act. Did he also get fined?

Don’t think we can expect a 19 year old not to retaliate to what Newman did.

The umpires and the AFL are failing in their Duty of Care to Harley by not enforcing the high tackle rule.
By not enforcing the rule and allowing opposition players to get away with the high tackles Harley faces the real prospect of a serious and life changing injury if one of the tackles goes horribly wrong. In the last two games he has got up off the ground at least 3 times holding his neck.
I hope the club is taking issue with the AFL in relation to the lack of free kicks.
Maybe it's time Mama Kane was demoted back to the AFLW.

Which Schofield? Shits getting confusing nowadays

UFC after party at Crown for the event he has been contracted to promote locally all week?

 

[RookiePick]

If he wants to play in front of nobody at the MCG after Collingwood has bottomed out, sure.

Or live in the meth-addled hellhole that is Geelong.

Or get smashed in the head by Gatorade bottles.
