      Maybe Carlton should also have a chat to Usain Bolt and Gout Gout if they want players with more leg speed.

        Heard they're on the phone to Shirvingtons manager after finding out he played footy last night.

          Maybe he is sick of losing?

            I also think there was probably just the expectation that he would never leave so was probably under appreciated.

            Lastly surely he wants a role he can sink his teeth into rather than playing forward one week, back the next, second ruck or sub the week after.

            He has limitations but he reads the flight of the ball as good as anyone and always gives 100%.

            He's not the big boy we need but he has 3 or 4 years as the second or third. An upgrade on the Coffield / Khamis type but we'll probably play him (and he'll eventually take over) the Lobb intercept role.

            A 27 year old 194cm 140 game player is the sweet spot for us next season.
            Great summary @1eye.
            I wished we had tried to get him when he had the knee injury I think 2 seasons ago. I got a sense he was being played in all sorts of positions.

            He reads the play very well and able to get into the right position.

              He's likely signing with St Kilda though!

              It's actually incredible how much NWM re-signing has shifted the needle for the saints. You'd think they'd won a flag.

              Rumour is a full rebuild was going to take place if he left. Now they're targeting evey man and his dog.

                      I like Cam McKenzie, that’s a good shout by the Saints. Big shopping spree though, based on past history will definitely not end in tears for them.
                      Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                          Ross Lyon referenced in a speech that the saints would start doing things in a similar way to what Geelong do with cotton-on. It was almost like a dig at the cats implying "if you can get away with it then we will too."

                          I think the AFEL have created yet another mess for themselves with 3rd party payments. If they haven't punished Geelong, well they can't suddenly target the saints!

                          Either that or the saints have well and truly screwed themselves in 3 to 4 years time. Maybe they're just going all in. Wouldn't be the first time under Ross or SOS.

                              I remember a description on Woof once of Justin Sherman, stating he had pace and uses it to run into the opposition.
                              Pettruccelle is really quick but I don't know what role he plays at AFL level after many years in the system.

                              Then again, we're talking about Carlton who have Francis Evans playing for them.
