Cal Twomey has Harry Dean rated at pick 10.
He's going to cost a bit.

The latest rumour doing the rounds is that Saad will retire at the end of the year. Reason given is that his hamstrings are stuffed.
Anyone heard this?

I’m optimistic about the future
I reckon there has definitely been a been a shift in the way the club sees it’s future
The Docherty retirement
DeKoning possibility going
For the first time in a very long time we actually have some potentially good kids who have been recruited in the draft
Cowan
Smith
O’Farrell
Wilson
Young
O’Keefe
White
Moir

So many of the senior players those players who gave up too much for in picks salary cap length of contracts have not met the expectations
Maybe finally the club “ is getting it”
The opportunity is there to press forward with optimism
That’s why the thought of Curnow going doesn’t concern me if we get something worthwhile out of it
Same with other senior players

Listen mate - I don't know who you are or what you've done with Keogh, but there's just no way known you're purporting who you say you are.

Charlie probably wants to go to another club where the players will kick the ball to his leads instead of over and on top of his head.

Domanic Akuei (delisted), Jack Caroll (delisted), David Cuningham (delisted), Sam Durdin (delisted), Matt Kennedy (trade, Western Bulldogs), Caleb Marchbank (delisted), Jack Martin (delisted), Alex Mirkov (delisted), Matt Owies (trade, West Coast)

Most of them couldn't get on the park! The only players on that list who could get a regular game were an inside mid (of which we have oversupply and HE requested the move) and a small forward (last time I looked, we weren't short there either)
We bought in a defender (Haynes) who has probably been in our best 5 performers. And a gun draftee who could offer skills our other mids are incapable of.

If the players cant handle their broken down hack mates being moved on to improve the list, bad @#$%&! luck. It's not a social club. It's an elite sporting club and the paying members deserve elite performance and behaviours. If the players can't handle that, they're not the players we need.

The club won't "pay for this in years to come". It will only get stronger. 30 years with zero success. The pandering needs to stop. And if your post has any credibility (which I highly doubt), then this is exactly the time.

Old school ITK on BF says Charlie's head is very much out of Carlton - same person who said a while back don't be surprised if a leadership group player leaves.

I can't say I'm fussed either way.
