it certainly does.
A soapy woooosh always stings.

Why not?

doesn't chase or tackle hard enough (not his strength) the opposition will put a speedy hbf on him and run everything through his man and cut us up

maybe forward pocket

I support all Carlton players; regardless.
I'm happy for the club to give him time to develop other facets of his game that do need to develop.

perhaps not in the 1sts

If you mean as a rookie listed player? I agree.

No I meant he can spend time in the VFL if we are patient.

But wouldn't want to say develop in the VFL, but then cut him for not getting games.

Not sure when his contract is up for renewal, but assuming he doesn't develop as excepted on in 2019, whats your view on transferring him over to rookie list?

I'm hoping our forward structure is

McKay Charlie & McGovern.
A designated small forward like Fasolo LeBois Murphy or Polson
Then our midfielders of Cripps Kennedy Setterfield Dow SPS O'Brien Pickett Walsh Lang Fisher Cuningham all pushing through midfield, forward line and the bench

I agree, with exception of Pickett and maybe Cunningham who I think might be better suited to a backline role pushing through midfield, and bench.

Some else mentioned that Puopolo debut at 23 years old. Polson is 19/20. Give him time.

So Polson has 3-4 years to develop a barrel chest and horrible nickname?

Good to know

With the talk of 3 and 6 possibly being traded for 1, is this the best forward line in the competition by say 2021?

Rozee ———C Curnow ————McGovern

Pickett ——-H McKay ————Rankine

I like Walsh, but with Rozee and Rankine both occasionally rotating through the middle they will join: Cripps, Setterfield (SOS pick #1 in his draft), Dow, SPS, Fisher, Ed Curnow, and an elite 2019 traded mid, I can see the argument for trading pick 1.
That forward line has some serious speed, skill and athleticism.
