Facebook comments are starting to rival YouTube for lowest common denominator status. I'm sure there's a way to disable them.

Love the Smith and Singh discussion. Exactly right.

Saw the twitter by the club. Thought the speculative part was pretty ordinary (in sporting parlance). Letting us know that the delistings will be tomorrow is fine. Validates the service as newsworthy. However, a comment talking about how people will be wanting to thank these players for their committment and how the hard it is for the club to have to cut good people from its list......

.......The club also has to make the online benefits and component of membership more and more substantial if we are to compete. A look at the big clubs in other codes show a far more reaching and interesting site for members. The questions they are asking now should have been asked long ago, but at least they have been asked. Now we need to see how they use all their data. I don't know how tech-savvy Mr Coutts or the Comms Dept are, but on face value, I'm not particularily impressed. Hopefully by the start of next season, I will be.


This post could have been made last year or the year before. You're expecting miracles.

I expect CFC to be a leader in all facets football: media, ladder position, memberships, revenues, best jumper....the envy of other clubs.
Really disappointed that we haven't moved forward in the comms area.

I don't think anyone at Carlton is listening or reading these posts....other than perhaps Coutts.
:roll:

In a club the size of this, have a couple more people (staff or players), write a weekly blog that only goes to the fansites. Eg, Mark Riley writes a blog for carltonsc, and Ellard writes one for here.


Dumb question I know and please pardon my ignorance...but why are Talking Carlton and CarltonSC run separately, was there some sort of breakaway(back in the blue view days?)?

Always wondered why the 2 sites never just merged....would make these forums doubly as worthwhile surely?

Not particularly happy about the Steven Browne delisting, but all boys can play and I certainly hope they get a run at another AFL club...particularly Caleb Tiller who was always going to need more than 2 years in an AFL environment. Hoping West Coast pick up Browney. Our family would certainly take a vested interest in his career should he end up back in Perth. Top kid, well liked, did everything asked of him and certainly a very good footballer. Too many in front of him, so here's hoping he gets another run elsewhere.

How many picks do we get in the draft after de-listings and elevations and do we need picks to elevate from rookie list

5 Picks in ND.

My disappointment is O'Keefe.
Hopefully he gets a rookie listing and another 2 years.
Perhaps ditto Tiller.

Still 5 new ND Picks & 4 Rookie Picks (not sure if Labi upgrades onto Rookie List or not), gives our new Development Team plenty of new blood to work with.

Go Blues.

Any chance we might re-draft any of these guys?

Surprised they got rid of Donaldson. I thought he might have got another year.

There seems to be a ruthlessness returning to the Club.

I thought I read somewhere he'd just got his body right and was looking forward to a big pre-season.

He must be almost dead considering some of the average players we've kept over the years.

I would have though a guy who can kick might be worth keeping. Do we have any good kicks?

I'm sure this will haunt Ratten for the rest of his life.

Just a stupid decision by all associated with the decision.

Karma will bite them in the bum.

From that it indicates we'll use picks 18, 33, 41, 67 and 70. Which is poor list management. In an already compromised draft...why use pick 67 and 70 who in all likelihood, aren't going to be any better than a kid who you've let go after 2-3 years in the system. Very strange IMO.
