Why did they resign him?

I know some of you Blues supporters won't like this.

In a way I feel sorry for him but truthfully he is not at all a good player. He is far from an AFL body and
lacks great talent.

What frustrates me is that he is getting games when we have other far more capable players performing in the 2s.

Luckily last week, he was given the sub after JRoo dominated him in the first term. Jammo did the job from there and shut him down.

I have no actual hate towards him but he is no good in our 22. :P

Yeah haven't watched too many Carlton games this year but both games vs the Tiges he has sucked hard lol :P

I dunno, maybe he's got some potential that we just can't see yet!

I don't mind them resigning the kid, he hasn't got enough size on him to be AFL ready yet, but Malthouse is an F wit for even considering him to play on guys like JRoo. He has actually been pretty good at VFL level and if we use him the way that Gold Coast use Cannon he should be a decent player for us. But he is not a 2nd or 3rd tall defender let alone a full back. He would work better as that medium sized defender to provide a nice long kick out of defense and some rebound out of the 50

Lets be honest, Mick is an authoritarian and he has his favourites and thats that. He obviously likes the kid for whatever reason.. Probably comes and carries Micks bags from the car into the rooms? Who knows but realistically the kid isnt ready for AFL yet. He looks like a child playing out their, literally.
You would hate to think that if Carlton were to scrape into the finals they would throw this kid in the deep end to play on a big forward. Needs time to develop in the VFL imo

agreed. Thank flower 'Where's my Bootsma' has re-signed, gives the Crows a better chance of getting Duigan back.

+1!!

Bootsma, Laidler, Duigan..... We all know it is unhealthy to have more than on serving of spuds...

Nige

Still baffles me that this kid gets games over Duigan and Laidler.

Go home Michael Malthouse, you are drunk.  :P
