Need to keep an eye on delisted rucks and KPPs.

Would be looking at one of either Redden or Cordy for rookie, purely in case Maric goes down...

I have little faith in Astbury, and less in Elton, but at least if Rance or Chaplin go down you know there are tall KPD's in the seconds who are playing defence to come in and have a shot without us playing blokes like Grimes/Batchelor on our opposition's 1st key forward (wait a minute...).
Carlton delisted a kid called Cameron Giles.  Iliked him as a junior. Havent seen much of him at all since. I know hes had his fair share of injuries  anyone know how hes gone at Carlton when not injured.

Sounds like he was regularly beaten in the VFL throughout 2014 until he fractured his navicular. Sat out most out 2015 before returning for two games late in the VFL season. Got through the first, then was allegedly one of the best in the final game of the year before being delisted. Maybe a bit harsh?

It seems we also had a look at Lobbe.

I agree with Stalin's sentiment though. We really need a ruckman and there were a few handy ones up for grabs.

I'm hoping we have a state league player in mind.
His sentiments are spot on.I mean we all understood quite clearly the gist of what he was saying. Kruezer was a f/a hence he would not have cost a pick.
I think WP was right when he said Kruezer is not leaving Carlton for love or money.  He may have been a F/A in name but he was never really a F/a.

We needed to do one of two things in the trade period. Trade out players and attack the trade period heavily bringing in many needs. Or trade into early picks by trading players. 
We did neither the only logical conclusion that anyone can come to is they are mostly happy with the list its structure and its quality. 
Yet regardless of what happens this mob will be defended.

I think it's a bit unfair to say they are completely happy with the list. They did go hard for a couple of players. It didn't work out (which is a totally different on it's own) but I'm not sure they rate the list quite as high as people seem to make out

Was a very very good junior. Played for Eastern Rangers and showed plenty. I'm not sure why he went off the rails with his football at Port. Probably worth a punt. Maybe if he took Dea's position on the list it would be a reasonable move. Could fill the Jackson/Tuck void with Townsend if he can recapture his form.

Keiran Harper delisted.....worth a crack I reckon....


Danny Stanley just delisted by Gold Coast.....remember him playing well against us back in 2011 but that's about all...


Majak Daw also cut.....basically still a raw gimmicky hack but he did jump all over Maric in Round 23......of course there's the small matter of his pending trial for underage rape.....despite all that, apparently North still intend to rookie him again....

has harper starved of opportunities because of a plethora of quality players of his type, or because he simply isnt good enough?

Harper would definitely have a look at  but has he still got ankle problems?
Also noticed Daniel Gorringe was delisted aswell .

The possibility of physical and mental collapse is now very real. No sympathy for the Devil, keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride.
