Good luck to anyone wasting their afternoon watching this garbage.

 

[DangerousD]

I think Voss will do this:

Newman Weitering Kemp
Cowan McGovern Cincotta
OHollands Cripps Acres
EHollands Kennedy Lord
Owies Young Williams
Pittonet Hewett Walsh
Carroll Binns Motlop Durdin
Sub: Wilson/Moir

The thought of Moir as a sub really grates me, i have been pissed off at Voss using small forwards who barely touch the footy as the sub on many occasions, the sub needs to be able to come on and play a few different roles, to actually make an impact on a game.

I dont see how Moir does this.

I take it you’re not watching but you’re more than happy to come here and pot the club you support?

Totally. With all of the options available to him this weekend hopefully he does better.

Nah. Straight up no to this posting garbage.

Be a better supporter.

Absolutely.

And they’ve earned it.

Nah.
Fallacy of sunk costs .

Cut your losses and do something useful with your time for the next fortnight.

 

[The Fantom]

Absolutely.

And they’ve earned it.

Hope they win and you miss it.

I really don’t know how you can be bothered potting your team but can’t be bothered watching them play. Very strange.

 

[Coops93]

Tall backline. Small forward line

I suspect someone from the back line will go forward, if not 2, but just don't want to say who

20+ years of garbage means I’m attuned to when to disengage.

 

[WyntersGame_]

Pittonet has missed about 9 games a season on average for 6 or 7 years. It's as predictable it gets.

I wasn't really highlighting his games missed but rather that he was actually in good form prior to his injury. If he had come back in that form he would be doing a serviceable job for us

Do I think he's the future no but he was showing something at the time

Oh boo hoo. Stop being so petulant. Don’t follow the club if you’re gonna act like that?

 

[Beyond Blue]

Well it sure don’t say much for ol Mirko if he can’t get a run before Pittonet or as Malcolm would say Pathetic Pittonet
What I watched the last 2 weeks from him was terrible
He needs to GROW A SET, A massive man -bloody throw your weight around ffs

Malcolm would have said…”pitiful Pittonet” which is almost better than the OG “pitiful Pittman”. Almost.

 

[Dramoth]

Cinc, Lord, Lemmey, Akuei on the bench. Wilson or Moir as sub.

 

[athensblue]

Very underdone and I personally haven't seen lots of the young kids play but don't see why we can't get over Eagles this week.
Bring desire and pressure and we will win
Defend as best we can and them send it forward to the bam bam and his mosquitos
Go blues

 

[norway blue]

I will watch as always. Sure it will me nervy. Go Blues

Would like to see Young play in defence. Kemp to the forward line, maybe Cripps to spend some time at CHF.

I think Lemmey will play and Wilson will be sub.

Hoping that Binns has a blinder on his wing and I do have faith in the Lord. Rising Star nom coming up.

 

[skadoosh]

Just woke up from a nightmare...

Scores at half time were us 53 points and Eagles 200.

All our players were the 10 year old version of themselves and playing in their school uniform.

Harley Reid was the size of a giant and had kicked 10 goals so far.

Harry Lemmey was 1 metre tall...

They are entitled to their opinion. These comments IMO are no better

 

[Soapy V]

So at least two debutants. Interesting that we haven't had an announcement through Carlton media. Does that mean that player will be sub or they don't know yet?

Real concern I have is not players missing but I'm told players like Pittonet, Acres, Walsh are playing injured and a few are very sore.

What a mess

 

[goreds]

What’s happening to us is similar to what’s happening to the economy. The government’s state and fed, won’t stop spending money which has put us in a terrible position, which will cost them all the next elections.
We were too stubborn to see we needed a change and we’ve finally broken down and had our own mini recession.

I’m delighted to see how Moir and Billy will go. Both are kicking and running upgrades on at least 6 players that will also be out there on the weekend.

Safer to lower expectations for this match. Could go either way.

But for me the excitement will be based on watching the debutants have a run. They’ve deserved a run.

As you say the season has quickly turned into a shit show.

Put Walsh in cotton wool for the remainder of the season. No long term benefit playing him injured now.

We are still in finals race and that's where we are. Don't disagree but it's very disappointing

Issue is Lord will play (that's great and right) but my feel is whover is other debutant will be sub. That doesn't excite me at all
