Everybody was waiting for the end of the season to arrive to see who will get cut, but forgot some players will be playing for the lives like Simpson and Bentick who are definite of staying now also Bryan,Longmuir and maybe Morrell and Chambers now.

The young players or average players will try as hard for the team so they can stay in the club it's the players who are not getting a game who need to worry a bit.

Murphy may have already decided with Brisbane also, so we and Hawthorn may not get him and the players dont care if it's him or themselves cut if they lose.

you think David Clarke,Jordan Bannister and Glen Bowyer are almost gone as in the VFL.

concern are still on Simon Wiggins,Karl Norman, Justin Davies, Brett Johnson,Ryan Houlihan,Ian Prendergast, Trent Sporn, Digby Morrell and Matthew Lappin walking.

Justin Davies deserve his chance in the next four weeks,so does Simon Wiggins and Karl Norman.

With Ohaipin,Smith joining the squad next year you think, while Becker stays as a rookie you think at least 7 will be cut at least for the national draft and trades to happen, i say David Clarke will be replaced by Jesse Smith and Jordan Bannister for Sentanta Ohaipin but a possible 5-7 will also leave, i dont think it will be like 13 or so cut off list.


Should we win all games or one more it's a hard one, but dont worry about murphy we may not get him but second and priority isn't too bad if we win 1 more if we dont come last.

Morrell should be given another contract in my opinion.

Really did show a bit today and has been very unlucky not to have played earlier.

While he probably wouldn't be a permanent forward in the Carlton forward line, I think he could be a backmen of some sort in the Carlton team.
His skills are usually pretty good.
As is his marking.

I wouldn't get rid of him.

What you think will happen with Justin Davies who is too good in the VFL
like Bentick and Simpson who shows pace and tackles hard and played some great games last year and wizard cup who should get more game time in the middle at the AFL.

Reckon Justin's time might be up.

I think Denis may have already pencilled in which kids are worth pursuing with and which aren't.

Justin probably falls into the "which aren't" category.

In my opinion Davies has had chances, more than a few other players.

Time up I'd say.

Someone might take a punt with him, but you'd have to say that if you can't get a regular spot in a team as crap as our you're lacking something.

Absolutely - time's up for Justin Davies. Digby Morrell is the best kick for goal in the Carlton team bar none (including Fev) and gives us a better balance. On his form yesterday, Norman is demanding another run at senior level....Wiggins I'm not so sure - a very good VFL player is about the best he can be. Bowyer & Johnson dominate at VFL level, wish this would transpose into consistent performances at AFL level.

Who gets delisted really depends upon how many we want or need to delist. We probably won't go beyond six players, with a couple of players like Houlihan and Lappin being traded.

Order of delisting:
1.Clarke 2. Bannister 3. Bowyer 4. Wiggins 5. Davies 6. Norman 7. Morrell 8. Chamber 9. Prendergast 10. Houlihan 11. Sporn
