Going to be tough for marchy to come back from here you would think.

Yep off to the nursing home, getting silly now.

 

[blue healer]

Wonder if they left out a prefix from the reason for Marchbank omission

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Great changes.

Looks like Cincotta sub, which is reasonable.

Happy to see Cowan back. Was very stiff to be dropped.

FoG is a massive in for us and our forward pressure and Saad to give us run.

1 ruck and the inclusions I hope to see a much quicker team in play that can score off turnover.

Fantasia surviving stuns me. But Durdin was probably in worse form. Which is saying something in itself. Shame Motlop isn't back yet.

Can't be gifted games as many times as he has post injury. Yes he's done the work, but can't rely on continuity within the back unit and him which just breaks momentum for players who get dropped because "he's back for 1-2". Same for Martin sadly, would not renew contracts (only consider it for Martin if he comes cheap).

Two TDK's?

 

[The Fantom]

Anyone know if Mots is playing VFL this week? Pretty sure Voss said he would be available this week, just hoping like hell it ain’t another setback.

Carroll

Club error & hasn’t been fixed

You'd think Carroll

 

[jj1978]

Let's see how TDK has matured vs Witts in this one. Witts usually slaughters us.

Surprised they have 4 unforced changes after their slaughter of Geelong.

Carroll

You'd think Carroll

Can’t see us rotating 8 defenders or Carroll being sub 2 weeks in a row.

Just not how AFL clubs do things.

 

[Arr0w]

Cowan for Marchbank makes sense with Holman for Day

Wondering which defender apart from Willams plays a different role

Cincotta midfield? Boyd further up the ground?

Intriguing

 

[Mondyboy]

Great changes.

So glad to see Fog and Saad back.

Cow is too good for VFL, and he’s in excellent nick.

And I think we’re better when we play more smalls up forward and down back.

Time for our mids, who were absolutely slaughtered last week, to redeem themselves against a very good midfield.

I wish they’d give Carroll a full game, but he will probably be sub.

Quite content with the changes. Agree that Fantasia has survived the chop this week, and if Motters were ready to go, he wouldn’t be named. Need to stop the influence of Witts and our mids need to provide some dominance.
Rapt Weiters is in, thank **** and hope he’s as close to 100% as possible.

Better ball movement and work harder to defend if we are playing a zone please, players pride themself on system, yet effort and understanding is needed to make a system work. We got cut up last week in the second half. was so disappointed walking outta there last week. Carroll sub I reckon

 

[Curnowhan]

Happy with these changes. I think we’ll win and win well.

I wonder how many players in the history of the competition have been “managed” after playing one game

 

[Magruder]

Club error & hasn’t been fixed

Missing player is Matt Owies

 

[kreuze_missile]

Cripps, Hewett and Kennedy in the same midfield again… do match committee watch any tape during the week?

One of them better be sub or I’ll be complaining on Bigfooty about it. Consider yourself warned Vossy.

 

[Aphrodite]

Missing player is Matt Owies

Already fixed

 

[Michael Jezz]

Playing Gold Coast at the top of their game with no injuries.
Carlton are not playing well and decimated by injuries
The game will depend on the fitness of Weitering and Saad are.
Gold Coast by 5 points

 

[Sam The Doc]

Don't like young being Emg.... but then there's not really anyone else is there?
