Looks as though the club is going to set itself for 2015-16. Going to be tough to knock off the Suns and Giants.

Henderson is your best defender now.

I'm interested in how Carlton would get the #1 draft pick?


One of the thousands of facebook pages has Hampson, Robinson and Yarran and its 1st pick to GWS for pick 1 and Adams

Shocking deal for the Giants that one. Patton is injured and the $wans got Buddy. Might as well hang on to Boyd now.

4 years for $2 million, not sure about that. Pretty much spells the end for Callinan too.

Maybe it's a strategic move so they don't have to de-list their fringe players to enter the draft. Chapman played well in the semi final but isn't on the paddock often enough, I can see him at GWS along with J-Pod, I can't see anyone else picking the big fella up.
I reckon Hunt will get a gig somewhere but it wont be interstate.

They really have no idea do they?

Betts will be good at the Crows. He's been striving for a big bloke to crumb from for years and now he's got one. I think he'll be better for the Crows than he was for Carlton, providing their game plan allows for the crumbers to get at the talls feet. (for some reason, this doesn't seem to be part of our gameplan!)

Best of luck Edwardo! We'll miss you.


Good footballers aren't where the ball is, they're where the ball is going to be, I think Betts lacks consistency and I can't see it coming to him at the crows who have the most fickle supporters.

I heard Geelong are going to honour Chappy's contribution to the club by throwing him on the scrapheap "gently"

His matra was "don't go where the puck is, go to where it will be" which is why he was amazing at what he did. His rink-vision was immaculate.
