This week, 19-year-old Sam Walsh – who is undergoing only his second pre-season in the AFL system – was elevated into the Blues’ now seven-man leadership group.

After Stacey Livingstone declared that if you stop Tayla Harris in the air, she’s “useless”, the AFL media set to work immediately on answering the pressing question: is she?
Teen sensation Sam Walsh is one of three new players in Carlton’s seven-player leadership group for the 2020 AFL season.
Carlton AFLW coach Daniel Harford has emphatically dismissed Collingwood defender Stacey Livingstone’s description of star Blues forward Tayla Harris as “useless”.
The Blues suffered a big loss in the offseason when their captain Bri Davey committed the ultimate treason and moved to Collingwood.

In 2019 the AFL saw an unpredecented phenomenon. After only a single coaching sacking in the previous two seasons, four coaches left their clubs mid-year, three replaced by caretakers who would eventually be promoted to the ongoing position.
Luckless Carlton star forward Charlie Curnow will miss the start of the AFL season as he continues his rehabilitation from knee surgery.
The axe blade never grows dull at Carlton.
After yet another disastrous season for the Carlton army with another coach getting sacked, Carlton elected to sign caretaker coach David Teague, who won six out of a possible 11 games, to a three-year deal late last season.

Three coffees at breakfast couldn’t ease Carlton recruit Jack Martin’s nerves before he finally got the news that had been almost a year in the making.
If the world were a good and just place, Jack Martin would be wearing navy blue. But it’s not and he isn’t.
Carlton entered the 2010 decade having finally broken a seven-year finals drought and, despite a disappointing loss to the Brisbane Lions after holding a five-goal lead in the final quarter, there was a lot of optimism surrounding the Blues as they embarked on their fourth year under coach Brett Ratten.
I have formulated the best 22 players from Collingwood and Carlton based on combining the teams.
It was supposed to be an aggressive trade period at Carlton – they were talking about bringing in players to provide depth and to help in all key areas – but unfortunately this failed to materialise.
The Tim Kelly fiasco is going to be the biggest talking point of this trade period, with the West Australian requesting a trade back to his home state for the second straight year.
With four new teams entering the AFL Women’s competition next year, this will mean a few things – two additional matches in a round, and the potential for Friday double headers.
With the AFLW growing in popularity, where can we possibly play the matches in the upcoming season?
