What about Georgie Hewett.....Very Dapper.

Definitely gorgeous George.

Elijah looks exactly the same and Cotters photo is a ripper.

Nice hair Newy.

Great stuff .

Happy to see Cunningham in the team and hope he is not the sub, I think he provides a big point of difference as he’s the only one of our mids that has a turn of foot and when he’s up and going is great for us. Rarely happens though and this is his last chance but I’m glad to see him in the team. For mine Cunningham, Martin and Zac Williams are extremely important for us come finals time. Point of difference players who are in form win you prelim and grand finals.

Yes I hope Cunners will pin point in attack but also desperately defend .

We’ve gone for a much more mobile team this week. Two key forwards, two key defenders and one ruck. A clear sign to me we are trying to ratchet up our contest and pressure which is our one wood.

100%

You’d have to think Carroll will be the sub. I have also heard Voss say they will use the sub role to manage players from time to time so that is consistent with seeing the likes of MK, Hewett, Owies etc as sub.

Also someone else mentioned Hewett may have been a little undone last week recovering from the flu the prior week so there’s always availability that we aren’t 100% privy to (nor should be).

Yep.We as supporters have to trust the match committee with their decisions but when some selections are obvious and you’re left scratching your head the mind just boggles.

IE:Marchbank.

Hope Carroll can play himself into another contract. There's still a spot there in the midfield mix.

56 games in 9 years doesn't fill me with confidence as far as Cuningham goes, I wish him well but honestly, he's fortunate to still be on the list.

Martin's an exciting player but another you can't rely upon.

With a bit of luck their bodies hold up for the rest of the season and we may get something out of them.

I swear Matt Kennedy looks like a dehydrated version of himself… just add water for the full size model

 

[The Blue Weirdo]

We've added 3 more slowish mids to the starting 22. Interesting.

Plus Marchy and Mots could both lose 2-3 kg's.
Is it possible to lose weight off one's legs?
Mots could be one of the AFL's best with a bit more fitness and zippiness.

But surely we're still too good for this mob.

 

[Opium]

Yeah agreed it's odd.

Going from 2.5 to 5, I really think Carroll being in is overkill.

Having said that, we've dropped Pitto too, so I think that helps with the pace issues.

Caroll was great last week. I don't mind players getting selected if form warrants it.

 

[Kruezing]

Cottrell obviously doing things off the ball and away from action that none of us see …

We would hope so Weirdo . I like your take on losing kg’s. Playing on the big stage will do that .Go Blues..

How about they do both - do well around the ball/action and away from it?

 

[DEliades]

Not a fan of that two pronged KPD approach. We’d wanna hope Marchy can play through a full game or we’re cactus

 

[Benaly28]

I have a feeling we’re going to tackle and pressure like we haven’t all year,next level.

What gives you that idea - I mean it’s only Roos …potential wooden spooners

even when watching him closely.

That’s crazy talk

 

[norway blue]

Just on Harry. Huge threat up forward as we know . Down the line / running marking is elite to then propel it forward. Rucking around the boundary etc and a few centre square looks also brings him into the game and takes the heat off TDK.

Haven't seen all of the reserves games in the last three weeks but from the bits I have seen Carroll really began to look like a player with a bit of authority about him. Doesn't mean that it translates to senior level but maybe the match committee have seen the same thing.

 

[teddy-hopkins]

Finally sanity has prevailed and Pitto dropped. Love him but 2 rucks has been confirmed / re-confirmed / re-re-confirmed / etc. that it just does not work.

Unfortunate to see Zac out again. I was hoping the shift to the forward line reduced the stress on his body.

looming on the emergencies bench already - surely not a late change?

Brodie Kemp put in an absolute howler last week and could not have timed it any worse with Marchy back.

Interesting article calling out the current Coleman leader needing to lift:

High expectations much?

 

[AB_Blue]

Only 6 true defenders if you count Cincotta so Kennedy may be getting some minutes there

I would run Cerra back at the 7th

Cottrell shouldn’t be in that side on form…shouldn’t be sub either as he needs to find form but kinda hope he is sub and cunners gets a full game
