Yeah nah.. I think they're both dynamic match winners. Harry's more reliable and consistent than both of them.

The three of them are a great triple threat to the opposition.

Hall is flakey. He would drive Carlton fans bonkers.

People are quickly forgetting how good Charlie is because he has been injured.
Last year he averaged more kicks, marks, handballs, goals, tackles, inside 50's, contested possessions, contested marks, marks inside 50, 1%ers, score involvements, metres gained etc etc etc than Harry.
Last year he played 20 games to Harrys 13. The year before he played 21 games to 2.

More reliable and consistent than Charlie anywhere near his best? Not for me.

Weitering. McKay. Curnow. Cuningham. Silvagni.

The five names from that 2015 draft. And for just the third time, they'll all run out together tomorrow.

#BoundByBlue

Interesting need that cohesion that has been talked about!!

#2 for ground ball gets
#5 for clearances
#2 for I50s retained

There's your old experienced heads.
Pretty young lot.

The kids:

19 yo Dow, Walsh, Stocker
20 yo OBrien
21 yo Petrovski-Seton, Fisher, Setterfield, Williamson
22 yo Charlie Curnow; Walsh, Weitering, Cuningham, Silvagni
23 yo Marchbank

This is the future, only missing Docherty 26, McGovern 25 yo, Pickett 23 yo

Just a small thing. Walsh is still only 18.


small things... silvagni and weitering still 21 & marchbank 22
williamson & fisher still 20
obrien still 19

i think bondi was rounding up


I am.

Quoting the age they will be in 2019.

blue bagger stated Murphy will be replaced by Setterfield.
Not heard it elsewhere...may be a false call.

You must be referring to the couple games Charlie and Harry played together this year, because there's no comparison with the body of work: Charlie would be well ahead based on that.

Different players. Different weapons. ... and we have them both.

My only prediction for tomorrow is that I’ll be very cranky if I see or hear words to the effect of “if we had Simpson and Kreuzer we would’ve won”.

For this group, those two being out will soon be the rule and not the exception. It’s time they grew up.

I won’t be confident until I see us win more than the odd game.

For that reason I’m not positive about tomorrow, seems setup to lose, media pump us up as brave, experienced players out....

That sounds like a win to us.

Negative (losing the players) plus Negative (your negativity) equals a positive.

Put your money on Carlton, based on that alone.

Just remember, when we win we win by big margins.
Average win is 44 points.

Momentum has improved every round after a good JLT series.
Despite being hit by injuries.
