Carltons list management should be a lesson for any rebuilding team. They went out and got all these players on overs from other clubs like Saad, McGovern, Williams, Cerra etc.
Its destroyed their cap, so now a team like Hawthorn already overtakes them, gets in Battle, Barass and still has money to chase more players.
Meanwhile Carlton cant even afford to keep TDK and they are completely screwed.
We just need to keep drafting until we are right near the top. Getting it wrong with any big money recruits early and you are pretty much done.

Carlton had to do it, because their drafting has been so poor.

All on SOS’s watch.
Reckon the Pies may be heading down the same path. Leppitsch seems to be anti draft. Just been lucky with F/S selections over the years and upcoming draft/s

Yeah but now it’s for the rest of his career. I’m sure puma are thrilled about him running around in West Coasts new balance gear.

Thought he was better then he was, He regretted leaving Punt Road apparently.
St Kilda didn't want him.
Should have just accepted he was not a number

][emoji[emoji6I’d like to hear from the hundreds of BF posters who said we’d be better off trading Nank and keeping Soldo. Anyone like to put their hand up .??

Paying overs to C and B-grade players is the problem : Williams, Saad, Cerra, Hewett, McGovern.. then Saints and Hanmeberry, Hill, .. or Bombers : Smith, Stringer, Shiel, McKay, Gresham…
Paying top dollar or even overs to elite A-graders and you rarely go wrong : Rankine, Jezza, Lynch, JHF…
So we would not regret a Harley Reid trade as he’s uber elite and will be for a decade. I also don’t believe we’d regret not getting him and holding our draft picks.
But it’s over paying for B-graders that kills your list build, not elite players.

Knobel would be worth a watch at GC.
Delisted free agent for life now I believe and will be behind Moyle and Witts at GC. Have the link with his dad. Can't be worse than Samson, OHB & Colina lol

Probably could've got him for nothing in the Bolton deal. Ship has sailed.

We have 3 other back up rucks contracted at the time so was no need. They all look pretty crap tbh and could all go tomorrow.

Hes just banged through 2 goals in a couple of minutes
Reid is going to be a gun. But if we have to give up 2 first rounders + more is it worth it?
For example would you trade Lalor and Smillie for him? I wouldn't. Not saying our first 2 picks this year are guaranteed to be of that calibre, but they could be.

Sold off a lot of decent depth as well who are essential when you want to compete because it means you have experienced and afl ready injury cover guys like Kennedy who is an excellent mid when he’s on and handy at half forward
Similar stuff happened to us when we were at the top of the tree like Miles, Markov, Chol ect. but we had a couple of flags to show for it

3 now. Hes entering Samson VFL dominant territory lol.Hes just banged through 2 goals in a couple of minutes
It's almost certainly Essendon.
He was rumoured to have been seen with Rosa (who knows if true) and is good mates with their Caddy. Also played with Essendon VFL and trained with the AFL side. It will be them.
Draper will likely leave, they will get a bunch of extra currency, and will trade for Reid.
Don't want Sam.Operation De Koning ( Sam and Tom ) should be a big watch .
EDIT: Oh you were prob joking sorry...
