Hi Ralphy! Carlton’s entire 2014 national draft class is on the verge of wipe-out, by Jon Ralph - online 10 minutes ago (behind a pay wall)

Hi Jonny!

[Twodogs]

Did he at least acknowledge that he lifted it from here. Should put a link in the comments section of the H/S site and see if it even makes it online

You may recall when Essendon were likely to be banned from the finals I started a lighthearted thread about that we should receive a wildcard entry into the finals based on our form over the previous few weeks. Bingo the next day JR had written there should be wildcard for that year and that we should be one of the teams to be considered.
I guess we pinch stuff off their site and they occasionally pinch ideas of ours. No harm

He gets payed considerably more than we do to trawl the net and plagiarise stuff though. Good luck for him I guess.

great summary of carlton 2014 class.
pick 7 gws picked Ahern who this year was traded to north. north gave pick69. his reoverong from a knee injury. so they may have dodged a bullet there, probably th only one !

Only thing worse is that they'd love to axe Jones & Jaksch but they have contracts for next year on maybe $600,000 or so combined!

And KJ, LJ & Boekhorst played 16 games combined this year, for an average at about 10 disposals...

It would be more than 600 k combined for Jaksch and Jones wouldn't it? Liam is on 400 himself and you'd think Jaksch would be about the same or even more than Jones*. I don't reckon they'd get much change from a million from that pair next year.








*I haven't laughed so much in ages than I did as I typed this. It ended up taking me quite a while.

My guess is $660,000-$750,000 on an average if they didn't front or back end the contract. That's nearly 6.5-7.5% of the maximum AFEL salary cap clogging up the Northern Blues playing list next year.

It's beautiful, isn't it?

Daisy Thomas is still on north of 700k next season as well - nice goodbye present from Malthouse

Up to $1,500,000 tied up in Thomas, Jones & Jaksch for 2017. That's I believe is called, salary cap karma!

You could be right - lets look at the whole thing:

Free Agents
Waite out to North for no compensation - lets let a proven goal kicker walk.
Dick in from Sydney - delisted.

Trades
Garlett and 83 out to Melbourne for 61 and 79 - lets let another proven goal kicker walk.
Pick 7 out to GWS for Whiley, Jaksch and 19 - Whiley delisted, Jaksch struggling.
Pick 46 (Caleb Daniel) out to Bulldogs from Liam Jones - Lol.

National Draft
19 Boekhorst - has been disappointing, widely considered a reach at pick 19.
28 Viojo- Rainbow - delisted.
60 Smith - delisted.
63 Foster - delisted.

Pre-Season Draft
2 Tutt - delisted.

Rookie Draft
6 Gowers - delisted.
24 Walsh - delisted.
41 Fields - delisted.
58 Russell - delisted.

What an hilarious disaster.

That's a tragic history right there!
