I give a feint fart in the general direction of the SCG whenever I drive past - good enough?I thought you’d be supporting your second team by now
I’ve been struggling this week with the negativity surrounding the footy club but I understand a lot of people love to see us failing.
I was curious when someone posted a photo of Russell on Instagram in his Carlton gear claiming the audio is commentary on our injury list.
I’ve found the audio where Russell talks about intensity at training might mean that players get injured. He’s actually talking about his time at Hawthorn and how they pushed players beyond their limits as part of their training regime. It would only occur for one session. They would prepare for it by lessening loads before and after that session. I suppose it follows the philosophy of pushing yourself beyond the pain barrier to give you an edge on game day.
The comments are in the section ‘Throwing science out the window’.

I wonder if players are getting jack of constant changes due to injuries and some in and out resulting in little continuity with the side.
This is especially relevant for the back 6/7 who really need to be a family within the family.
Or maybe everyone is just sick of the heavy training loads and have no gas in the tank.

It’s probably fair after the last 6 weeks.
6 weeks ago Cripps, Weitering, Charlie, McKay and possibly Walsh and TDk would’ve been in the squad at least.
Now I’d imagine it’s just Cripps.

Not sure why there is even a debate between those two. You can have Weitering, Andrews and McGovern in the same back 6. Weitering was never going to be in King's team no matter what he did based on his commentary all year

AA should be based on all 23 games not just the last month of the season - Charlie, Cripps, Weitering at the very least would all be locks for the squad. McKay would be next in line.

“Curse of talent”: Why Nathan Buckley wasn't surprised by Carlton's bounce-back performance

The AFL.com.au brownlow predictor has Walsh currently in equal 11th place (12th if including ineligible Heeney) - which is crazy considering he’s clearly below his best. He’s also 17th in the Coaches votes. All this after missing the first four games of the season.
So he’s actually had a pretty damn good season compared to the competition and hopefully we make it to the Finals and he gets the bye to help with whatever is ailing him and then watch out…

McGovern has had a very consistent year, whereas Weiters has had a clear difference between his good and poor games.
Stats favour McGovern and Weitering's kicking has also dropped off compared to what it used to be.
Metres gained by McGovern is twice that of Weitering.
Don't get me wrong, Weiters probably should have been selected in previous years, but fair call on McGovern this year.
No different to when Ryder got AA over Kreuzer as they didn't want to select 2 rucks even though both had very good years and there wasn't much between them. Next year, 2 rucks were selected.
