@paoloseb05 Why do Carlton fans and list managers continue to recruit and hype mature age players like Hewett, Cerra, Acres, Hayward and Florent as key additions only to realise their low ceilings and deficiencies once it’s too late?

@paoloseb05 @Bartowskisblues I don’t think any of hawks, swans, Gold Coast, Brisbane, Geelong, Freo would want him. He’s slow, not a great user. Send him to north and reload
English
@Bartowskisblues Everything is price oriented.
From a pure football perspective, without price, my opinion is yes they’d want him.
English
I’m not trading the man who’s put his body on the line for years.
Better midfield mix and more dynamism around him? Yes.
All that can be acquired without losing him.
The contested game is still needed.
Go get a more balanced midfield so his skill set is more efficiently used.

"There's a serious question of whether they can trade (Patrick) Cripps out, get draft picks in, and it's a win-win" With Carlton sliding further down the ladder, must they consider trading captain Patrick Cripps at the end of the season? #OnTheCouch

@gardinerstand They chose stability for stability sake, not for competence.
Stability is a bi-product of competence and correct process.
Wrong decisions any amateur could have told you would lead to this current scenario.
English
🔵 NEW POST 🔵
Carlton chose stability. Now they’re staring at the same decision - only with more damage done.
Groundhog Day at Princes Park: fast starts, fades, and a call that was delayed, not avoided.

@paoloseb05 @NicNegrepontis When you shift the perspective from his failures to his merits, there isn't a compelling case for him to keep the role. Entrusting the development of Walker, Deane, Smith etc to his leadership is irresponsible at best.
English
@NicNegrepontis They said it was reactionary after Sydney.
They said it was okay after Richmond.
They said wait till round 4.
Now what?
R1 vs. Richmond in 2025 is when it should have happened.
The longer it’s gone the worse it has got. That’s what will continue to occur - EVIDENCE!

I refuse to believe someone could have watched this Carlton ship rapidly sink since the middle of 2024 and come to the conclusion that Voss just needs a few more weeks to sort it.
Hope I’m wrong!

OPINION | @CarltonFC coach Michael Voss deserves to be given his shot at turning this leaky ship around, and seeing whether he can plug the leaks that have sunk the #Blues in three winnable games so far, writes @JakeNiallTHEAGE theage.com.au/sport/afl/the-…

Adelaide here to stay.
Sensational victory on the road.
How good is Neal-Bullen?!
Pies lack of a proper key forward hurts.
Low output from Elliot and DeGoey = close to terminal.
Nick Daicos can’t do it, lads.
English
Is it a knee jerk reaction to say Carlton should drop Will Hayward? Handed away two goals. Zero impact. Hasn’t been particularly impressive this season. Would give Flynn Young a go, for whatever it matters.
English
Reminder of the AFL’s ridiculously overly zealous ‘equity’ policy for F/S picks.
Why should the sacrifice of past generations be made to pay more than others because of executives attempting to justify their titles by ‘leaving their stamp on the game?’

The father-son freeze out reminds me of inheritance tax. Man sacrifices his body, mind and soul for the betterment of his family by committing himself to a career. The fruits of his labor are then rejoiced, cultivated and used by the entity he chose to sacrifice himself for.

@scepticsview @DunnEagles32553 He’s not better than Duursma. He’s just another accumulator with minimal damage.
English
@DunnEagles32553 Wait second best kid, or second best in general? He’s good, and I’d say he’s better than Duursma (may not be for long) and defs CDT, again at least for the time being…but no way is he a better player than Yeo or waterman or baker. If TK is back as we hope then he’s better too
English
I'm curious eagles fans. Got a Carlton fan telling me jagga would become the second best player behind Harley in our team. Who would you take ahead of Jagga? I've got Harley, Willem, CDT, Jobe and then im willing to have a conversation about Bo, happy to die on that hill.
English
You can handle a few injured defenders if your elite midfield and elite forwards all remain intact.
Brisbane Lions just too good.
Three-peat massive chance.
English
Sensational card of racing at Flemington.
Good luck if you’re having a bet.
Race 8 - Birdman.
Has the Australian Cup at his mercy. Barely raised a sweat winning the Peter Young. Drawn to get a cheap run.
Up to the 2000m, fourth up, the Chris Waller recipe.

Forecasting ahead to Carlton’s match against Melbourne.
Funnily enough, team selection is where this game will be won and lost.
Carlton needs to inject Talor Byrne and Francis Evans into the team.
Byrne, Ainsworth, Hayward, Evans would cause trouble at half-back for Demons.
English
Big congratulations to Jagga Smith who received an AFL Rising Star nomination for his performance against Richmond.
The odds-on favorite to win the award.
That first career goal he scores on the run against Melbourne will be special 😉
Super footballer.
English
@leigheustace @paoloseb05 Honestly he’s never been what they need him to be. Played as the 3rd tall at Brisbane and now they are hoping he can lead the attack. Never kicked over 28 goals in a season
English
@paoloseb05 @Jamesgb33 Pies need McStay to play like the second half of 2023 - that’s the issue. There is a key forward capable, seemingly. Injury has curtailed him since, now form.
English
@jaxsoncarlisle_ @paoloseb05 Brisbane, Dogs, GC, Swans, Freo, Geelong, Hawks… we will come back to this in a few months.
English
@Jamesgb33 @paoloseb05 Crows missing 5 of their best 23, they are absolute shoe ins for top 6 grow up
