Stephen Kernahan
Sticks was 23 or 24 when he finally moved to Fark Carlton though
Lets just pretend the current #5 never happened
Grimes/Scully come to mind. Worked out well
He needs to do something about that haircut. I can see him with a shaved head and big mustache in the future.
Neale Daniher was 21 and in his 4th season at Essendon when made captain. Give Sharp #6 and the captaincy next year.
Yeah he was 22, but it was still his second season when he was named captain
You must be incorrect. I called him a strong pressure player early this season and was confidently informed that I was wrong because he had zero tackles in his second game.
He is the sort of player Dodoro would never have drafted. That ■■■■ did more to destroy this club than Knights, Worsfold, Scott combined. I almost weep for the amount of genuine talent that fraud ignored, all so he could draft the sort of kid he could never be, a preppy, private school prefect.
It should have been retired when he retired. It certainly shouldn’t be given to any draftee or developing player.
retiring #5s is the dumbest practice.
Hoping the preseason next year has him cherry ripe for plenty CBAs over a full season.
Sharp/robey/farrow
So stoked we nailed that draft.
A bunch of picks now with the same brains trust looking over the talent and giddy up.
We will look good to go to keep on going.
Zero tackle in his second game? Why didn’t you say sooner?
Delist Sharpe, for mine
He seems like the quintessential dodo pick, came from a good family, good private school, good role model, future leader? He is just really good at football as well.
Nooo. We had the chin as vice and now he’s captain.
Highest rated players under 21 the last 5 weeks:
Jagga Smith
Murphy Reid
Dyson Sharp
No need to put the pressure of captaincy on him for 3-4 years. Once we are back on the up and Sharp has 100 games into him feels the perfect time to give him the captaincy. Bringing him into the leadership group to learn next couple of years will give him a good platform.
It was Grimes/Trengove.
I think Grimes was maybe 2 years older than Trengove, but Trengove must have been like 3rd year or something?
Yeh, he may well be future captain, but I’d be happy to let McGrath shield these guys from the heat for a few years before they take over.
Bryce Gibbs was added to Carlton leadership group before he made his debut.
Yew beautyyyy
