He came here after a pay packet and can't imagine why he would have a trigger that said if he is playing football good enough for 15 games in his last year we get him for 1/2 the next year.
If he has resigned it recently to change the value of the trigger, that could be a different matter.
The rubbish about the respect he "deserves"... He deserves the respect one human gives another, but outside of that Carlton supporters owe him absolutely NOTHING. He has absolutely impacted our ability to bring in other players due to the size of his contract.
It is okay, it is football, he signed the contract and is entitled to the cash.. that is the way it works... But being on our list has comfortably been a negative in regards to our list management and I can't wait to see the back of him.
Talk about he must be picked because of culture etc.
Well it is okay to say that a player on 700k a year has to be doing more to get a game than Charlie Curnow does. That he must be demanding games with his performances. I remember Nicky Winmar coming back through the 2s many years ago and picking up over 50 possessions.
Players in the top 5% of paid AFL professionals need to play better than he does.
I would happily see him never play another senior game
You said it. He's been contracted and given the cash. He is on the list.
All that matters from this point is if his performance is at or better than the alternatives. This includes leadership, on-field performance, effort and following instructions/directions.
Given how poor our team structure was against Port when we had so many kids in the team, i think the ability to know where you are supposed to be at any given time, and the desire to do the hard running to get there, is severely underrated.
You, along with many others, have made it clear your feelings on Daisy and nothing he can do will change that. So lets just leave it there.
