"CARLTON SIGNINGS

New Carlton recruits Michael Gibbons and Matthew Cottrell have now been added to Supercoach at $102,400. Gibbons is a MID only and Cottrell has DPP status as a MID/FWD.

Do these players make it into your starting team?"

I mean they're both 102k, so if they play round 1 they'll be in everyone's team ::)

if all 3 of Gibbons, Setterfield and Cottrell play rnd 1 would be silly not having them all and since Setters and Cottrel are M/F

Setters and Gibbons yes, Cottrell I'm not sure about yet - no real idea about his SC output. If he plays a role that isn't SC friendly then I won't touch him

Money Shot

After talking to someone inside Carlton:

Gibbons is extremely likely to line up round 1. Has not missed a beat along with Walsh.

Setterfield is set to start full training this week and is expected to play in the JLT. Tracking along nicely for round 1.

Williamson is a week or so away from full training but will most likely start in the VFL.

Stocker has a lot of work to do to get up to AFL standard. Has to build his tank.

Cottrell adds good depth but unlikely to start round 1.

Goddard isn’t in best 22 at this stage but could start round 1 depending on injuries.

We pretty much knew all that anyways but it is good to know.




GoLions

Hopefully Williamson doesn't come in like round 2 or 3

elephants

Brb putting the house on Walsh for rising star

Ringo

Also Richmond Player Sydney Stack added as mid only at $102,400

I bloke at work was raving about Callum Wilkie, St Kilda's 22 year old rookie who played for Nth Adelaide and starred in the GF last year.

Last seasons highlight package looks pretty good

Yeah Wilkie will play for sure at one point this year. I was hoping he would start R1, but last I've heard he might be a better chance of being a downgrade target for us

Lel Nige

It was nothing major Fid - might have been "The Phantom" suggesting that he might be a downgrade option as the Saints seem to have quite a few running defenders now, and Hind would get the nod over him

Found this too

While also falling short in the race to snare Dylan Shiel, Richardson believes the next wave of St Kilda midfielders could be unearthed internally due to the arrival of readymade talent. 

"What it's given us are some tools and some choice, potentially," Richardson said. 

"(We say) OK, you blokes (Parker and Young), you're probably going to play forward initially, that might allow (Jade) Gresham and (Jack) Billings to play more midfield.
