So Duigan is out, I hope Laidler is back. Vision of him training indoors on the jumper day with a knee heavily bandaged. If not Laidler, Bower. I think against this mob we can play three larger backmen.
Anyway, Jamo goes to Josh, Houlihan goes to Hurn and Russell follows Le Cras everywhere. Le Cras has been playing up the ground in the mid field more this year, just like Jordy.
The Weagles can then worry about our other, 18 + sub, players.
People trash Knockers for the missed goal, but turn it around. He is such an awkward size that that is why he got the free kick. Corey or whoever couldn't get to the ball so hit him in the head. In a forward press like these guys supposedly play, his height, resting down in the forward line will be important. He has proven that he can take marks in the forward line, just please, keep making the contest. Has he played 50 games yet? (Also the hugs for some reason has a crush on him so it is easier to get her involved with footy when he is playing. And she has a crush on Walker and Juddy and Duigan and Gibbs and Hammer and.... Got to keep her away from the changerooms).
Our defence is a team. It is so much more noticeable this year. Thornton has stood up and is a vital part. I reckon it is his spot to lose. In saying that, so long as the defence keep handpassing it to Yaz, all is good in the world.
I reckon at the start of the year, you could have imagined our forward line as Hendo, Waite, Eddie, Jeff, resting ruckman and Walker. I doubt there is a team out there that could handle that combo. That to me looks the right blend of height and speed.
Ahh options. Go Blues.
Oh yeah. Please don't bronx cheer Carlton players. We don't do that.

I reckon you have described Warnock's attributes perfectly.
He is awkward, that's exactly why took the mark and got the free for a smack in the gob; goes to show, you can smack blokes and concuss them and no one says a thing.
Warnock may just be that magic ingredient that shakes Cox and Nic Nats' foundations.
Thanks for the food for thought.
Like you say...just give it to Yaz...everyone's role is to shepherd to the 50 and he'll just pop 'em through the big sticks.
I expect Warnock and Armfield in for Hammer and Duigan.
Good to see MC rating O'Keefe (yes I'm gobsmacked and rapt) and Austin. Psych will be rapt too
We're blessed. God I hope I see 'em this Sunday in Melbourne.
Carlton by 69 points. 10 goals.
