[Aphrodite]

Really hoping players can come out of that 22 because Ed should not be close to this team

Named in the starting 18, not named on the extended bench.

 

[Benaly28]

I love Ed he’s been a warrior but seriously this is why we supporters get riled up.

Binns should’ve been an automatic in.

Martin is so underdone should’ve been subbed at best.

I think we know where Fisher is next year.

[The Fantom]

Ed… says a lot about where we are.

I guess he’s gonna be Merrett’s jocks all night as I see no other reason for him to be in the team.

 

[carlton_99]

Named in the starting 18, not named on the extended bench.

Yeh but so is Pittonet and in the Carlton article it still says "possible inclusion". So I think changes can technically be made from that 18 but I may be wrong

 

[dumb]

Playing funny buggers with Silvagni selection? Wondering if there's a late out, with someone to come in depending on the Bomber lineup.

 

[The Blue Weirdo]

That’s about as expected, very surprising Martin is named- he’s so far under done it’s not funny.
Feel for Binns, deserves a call up.
Hope Vossy remembers the crowds response to Dow if he thinks he can drop him

Dow and Kennedy have to be in the 22 this week, no idea which other emg. deserve a game.(not real impressed with Cotts and Mots lately)
No Fish and LOB is a step in the right direction, but Ed(wtf is going on?)

 

[AceAndy]

Clearly the Match Committee see something in Jack Martin

that supporters dont. Btw who is on the Match Committee ?

 

[Ald Gardiner]

OMG, Ed Curnow back in, just point me to the oven please. Just let it go you morons!

 

[Beyond Blue]

Binns should’ve been an automatic in.

Martin is so underdone should’ve been subbed at best.

I reckon the plan might be to sub him out, provided of course we don’t get an injury.

I’m surprised there is no Marchy more than anything as I thought he’s ready to go.

 

[HereComesJuddy]

MC have lost their freakin' minds

Surely we are tanking

 

[Ald Gardiner]

Clearly the Match Committee see something in Jack Martin that supporters dont. Btw who is on the Match Committee ?

Not surprised Martin named, at club dinner last night it was noted he was under consideration. I’m sorry a 50% Martin has more chance of kicking goals than the other four fwds around the Coleman boys.

 

[bigblueboy]

Ed Curnow, just point me to the oven please! Just let it go you morons!

Kennedy was very sore. Hewett already sidelined.
I’m not a fan of playing Ed but I’m not surprised.

 

[Kruezing]

Motlop cottrell young should make way … the four interchange and sub should come from the remaining five …

 

[Blues_1864]

Yeh but so is Pittonet and in the Carlton article it still says "possible inclusion". So I think changes can technically be made from that 18 but I may be wrong

They can. Fogarty was named in the starting 18 against Port in Round 5 last year, but didn't play (and incidentally, has never played since...).

 

[thebluenewdeal]

Ed… says a lot about where we are.

I guess he’s gonna be Merrett’s jocks all night as I see no other reason for him to be in the team.

Not a bad idea, their midfield totally falls over after that

 

[Iamcarlton]

Our MC selections are even more boring than our on field play .
Last week they went back to Obrien this week its ED .
I don't expect anything different on field as our MC is as meek and non creative as the team is at present .

 

[Cringle]

I’d be gobsmacked if Jack Martin got a guernsey.
Puffing like 50 a day smoker in the magoos.

Haha

 

[TENACIOUS]

Ah this shit is giving me an ulcer

How does Ed come straight back in
We all know Dow will be cut and htf, does Binns not get an opportunity...

I give up

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Ed… says a lot about where we are.

I guess he’s gonna be Merrett’s jocks all night as I see no other reason for him to be in the team.

We say that every week about the oppositions best mid.

He will sit at half forward, find the ball 10 times and kick 0 goals.

And you will like it.

 

[Blues_1864]

We say that every week about the oppositions best mid.

He will sit at half forward, find the ball 10 times and kick 0 goals.

And you will like it.

He might kick it to Charlie a couple of times. Which would be nice, because when Ed's not playing, nobody else seems to bother...

 

[HarryFlashman]

Ed… says a lot about where we are.

I guess he’s gonna be Merrett’s jocks all night as I see no other reason for him to be in the team.

Even that is not a good enough reason, let them worry about stopping us- not focus on stopping them.
The defensive mindset is a defeatist attitude.
It’s * we should be going to war, looking to blow them off the field & let them chase us, while we bring the pain!

 

[Bamboo Harvester]

And no Binns because?

I'm okay with it.

If people heard the Ebert interview before the VFL match against Willi a few weeks back, you get the general gist that they feel he's not yet ready for the cut and thrust of AFL.

He's playing some really good footy right now in the VFL - and the match committee are no doubt well aware of that - but as much as we'd love to see him debut, I'm putting my trust in the development coaches to assess whether he's ready. I'd hate to see the kid get smashed just because we're impatient.

 

[Jimmae]

Fisher out, tick
O'Brien out, don't agree, but it's not going to revolutionise the team either, it's just vastly less shit than Fisher and Cottrell IMO.

Ed guaranteed in, cross, just not up to it physically right now.
Pittonet guaranteed in, cross: week off on the legs, but has a hand problem and doesn't solve 2-ruck system vs solo-ruck with support cast
Martin guaranteed in, cross, has no calves and spent the VFL game struggling to contribute on the wing... all bar 2 disposals were handballs!

Dow, Kennedy, Young is where I would go with the bench, would expect Silvagni and Fogarty aren't in the running for the 4th spot and Jesse looks cooked.

 

[lilJeffyG]

As much as I don't like it, think Young has to be chosen from the bench to play on 2MP.

 

[Mr_Plow]

Dow listed on the bench concerns me.
Would be peak Voss to drop him and bring Ed and Martin in.
