Now the Blues pushed really hard to secure Warnock signing him on a 4 year deal for close to $400,000 a year. Warnock came to the club 2 years ago now looking to cement a spot in Carltons best 22 and has played 37 games out of a possible 68 games respectively , Now i know injuries have struck Warnock a bit since being at the club.

Warnock has played 5 games this year the latest being 8 weeks ago and though his stats weren't impressive his hit outs were averaging 31 a game.
Last year he played 21 games including there 2 finals averaging 28 hit outs.

Now with several clubs looking to bring Warnock in during trade week has this been a failure for Carlton? or am i being too harsh on Warnock?

I know Warnock is a good

Warnock=Mark Blake

Actually Blake has a premiership

Yes he is a waste......of space on Carltons list. I am praying some team will give us something good in return for this spud. The tipping point for me came in the West Coast game earlier in the season when he was out marked 1 on 1 by Matt Rosa. He wins his fair share of hitouts but does nothing around the ground, can't push forward because he can't kick.

He should come to the Pies, we need tall people EVERYWHERE !

Impossible to win a premiership without key fwds and a ruckman, add Taz retiring and Jolly not far off, cloke possibly leaving and he and Dawes being spuds regardless.

Collingwood should do ANYTHING to get their hands on talls for all 3 positions.

Griffen is another ruckman being wasted if your talking wasted players these two have to be right up there.

Would be a great fit for Collingwood as would Griffin.

Send Wellingham back to WA and maybe a mid round draft pick for Griffin win win for both clubs.

Big waste where he is, he is a hitout ruckman only and doesn't win enough of his own ball. Carlton will play Kreuzer and Hampson over him all day when those two are fit. I think GWS might show a bit of interest in him, but Collingwood and maybe even Geelong probably would as well.

I rate him. Surely he won't stay at Carlton... Could easily see him going somewhere elsewhere and breaking out like Jacobs did...

He's a spud.
oh really!!!!

Still got me wondering why he even signed with the blues if he is only playing VFL

the arrival of Mick might be a positive for Warnock
personally i think he needs to go somewhere else, but it might have gone past him being 26 next year
