Flying up to Sydney for the weekend with a few other Carlton fans. Never been to a game at Giants’ stadium before and super excited to be amongst the big travelling blue army. Should be a good contingent of us up there.
Did that two years ago! Don't take a ferry, it's so much further than it seems on 'Maps'! Train it, but you have to change three times!! But it's so worth it, so many Baggers it's like a home game. On the morning of the game there were so many Blues jumpers around Circular Quay it felt like Lygon St....
Enjoy yourselves, Hugo's on the Wharf in Manly is an exceptional feed, not bad on the optic either....

Worst case scenario, let's say Boyd is suspended and in somewhat good news is Kennedy's knee injury is very minor. What changes will be made for these two?
Hewett off sub is obvious. Marchbank to come in? I doubt they'll move Williams back to fill Boyd's role and I wouldn't do it on current form. Any other suggestions?

Cincotta could move back into the defence rotation for the week
 
If Boyd doesn’t get off, who is next in? It has to be Marchbank right? Can’t imagine we bring Durdin or Young in to replace a small.

Binns off of halfback, even? Or Binns/Carroll into the middle and Cez to halfback?

I think we’ve got some great depth to cover off the loss of both of these guys, but ideally both are in our best 22

Chugga so underrated, Boyd gets some love but he is so much better than a role player (and I never thought he would be!)
 
Shall we wait until it's finalised?
I hope and think he gets off. I just said that he would get a week. Just because we look at the world through Navy blue glasses shouldn't mean we can't look at things objectively. It just blows me away that people laugh react for having a different opinion.

I guess as supporters, we'd hope that these type of incidents don't impact a players availability. Is that having blue blinkered glasses or passion?

Like having an unexpected win or loss, it doesn't impact or define a season

Read the news on fb from a post by the AFL page...head a look at the comments and 95% were saying it shouldn't be a suspension.

Does say a bit when most opposition supporters would love one of our players to be suspended.

The common theme was that the Richmond player ducked into Boyd.

Marchbank won’t play for us again.

Just an opinion.

Like the look of it. Williams and Cincotta not in? Good problems to have.
