Some great differences of opinion here. Here's hoping you get the opportunity to come on here and say 'I told you so'.
But the Carlton of 2023 is long gone and so has the playing style. The game evolves. Voss needs to prove to Wright that he can evolve too.
Here's what I'd do. By gutting the list, I mean I want these changes made. It's Carlton, so it's unlikely to happen. I'll be happy with just McKay and Silvagni gone to be honest.
Adam Saad = Delist/Retire
Alex Cincotta = Delist
Blake Acres = Trade
Elijah Hollands = Delist
Flynn Young = Delist
Francis Evans = Delist
Harry McKay = 1st Rnd return
Jack Silvagni = 2nd Rnd return
Jaxon Binns = Trade
Jesse Motlop = Trade
Mitch McGovern = Delist
Orazio Fantasia = Delist
Sam Docherty = Retired
Tom De Koning = 1st Rnd return
Now we are at season end I am going to revisit my thoughts based on Doc's thoughts.
Adam Saad = Delist/Retire - Plenty to take his place
Blake Acres = Trade - Plenty to take his place. So much to like but such a poor kick.
Jack Silvagni = I want him to stay, but get what we can otherwise.
Jaxon Binns = Trade - Can't see him making it. Not enough tricks.
Jesse Motlop = Trade - As above. A bit player
Mitch McGovern = Delist - Plenty to take his place
Orazio Fantasia = Delist - Sadly injury prone. We need his skills but he can't stay on the park.
Sam Docherty = Retired
Tom De Koning = 1st Rnd return
Jordan Boyd = Delist - Plenty to take his place
Elijah Hollands = Keep
Flynn Young = Keep - Has shown continued improvement
Francis Evans = Keep - Revelation these past 5 weeks. Foot skills alone keep him on list
Harry McKay = Keep - Vossy says No
Alex Cincotta = Keep - Needs a pre-season to see where he is at. His best is strong enough but we will see.
I'm keeping Cincotta and delisting Boyd only because Cin had a terrible run with injury and couldn't get himself right. I would love to see him have a full pre-season.
Harry Charleson can fill Boyd's role from what I have seen.
So glad Billy Wilson got a look in late, and I think he's a keeper.
The Irish boys - No idea.
Lemmy - No idea. Turned 21 in Jan 2025. I think worth another year as Talls take forever.
Lewis Young - I suspect if HOF didn't fall off the perch for 2026, Lewis would be gone, but as it is, he's Security.
Huge pre-season for Moir and the Campo's. They need to be in best 25 right from the start.
Durdin gets one more year to make his mark.
I wonder if Newman can play wing? I would love him pumping the ball inside 50 all day long.
