NAB challenge: Carlton v Adelaide (Etihad)

Just a few rotations for me,
Buckley Jamison White
Yarran Watson Tuohy
Thomas Gibbs Bell
Menzel Waite Walker
Everitt Casboult Reynolds
Warnock Murphy Graham
From; Lucas Ellard Robinson McLean
Cachia Wood Subs; Rowe Garlett
Simpson, Carrazzo and Scotland can all be eased
back into within the next few weeks, all boys are seasoned
and will play round 1.
Hopefully Buckley can play more consistent footy and push
for a spot come round 1, quick and skilful would help out down
back..
Rate White ahead of McInnes, get some game time into him also..
Would like to give Graham as much game time as possible, maybe
a spot for him while judd is out??
Just some thoughts

..krooz says he might play, daisy is meant to..

Hope kreuzer plays.. If so, out wood in Special K...
Probably take out ellard/cachia/Lucas for Cripps, big fan of the boy.
Reynolds has played senior footy, would love for him to get a game
or two to show he's skill, reckon he could add some structure to our
forward line, along with menzel..
Monday night, might have to do some OT and head down to watch the
boys, may check out the old eddie also, still have a spot for him..

Looking forward to it.....the Eddie factor will help make it a bigger game than it would've been.

A nice early test for us.

It's not about winning.

Just want to see another good effort, continual improvement from our second and third tier players and no injuries.

..want to see knockers working more off the ball, he needs to run beyond the arcs when in the ruck, he can't just loiter between the arcs when in the ruck and jog to stoppages..

Couldn't care less about eddie - in any case no coach puts time into the opposition for these games that's why midfielders etc get 40 possessions - just want to see continued improvement for cripps menzel bell lucas Watson graham and casboult

Walker to Eddie for mine - you need someone strong in the air and with mobility. Buckley, Simmo, Tuohy will be torched in the air by him, McInnes not mobile enough. Walks was also excellent against Milne.

What will be the crowd's reaction e.g. a few isolated boos, a lot of boos or the crowd in general giving it to him

personally I would've liked him to stay but in this day and age its purely business and he needs to set himself up for life

just hope he doesn't play 100 games for the crows and does he knee.................

Just joking

I'm sure some people will boo him, but that won't stop me being disappointed when they do. He was a great player for the club, gave so many highlights, I hope he has a great career at Adelaide. He had his reasons for going, and if the club really wanted him to stay they would have found a way to keep him.

On a betrayal scale of zero to Aaron Hamill, he's a zero.

Would they really? I'm expecting cheers.

Eddie wasn't worth the money and good luck to him. I did enjoy watching him but cringed everytime he did that homie crap with the two fingers, I think the other two amigos will flourish now.

Eddies reason for leaving, according to him, is that after all that negotiating they extended his contract by one year but reduced the overall pay to do so. He saw that as a slap in the face.

Mick on 5AA last night said Buckley will be given the job on Betts. Will get help from Tuohy, Walker and Simmo. But Bucks will be the main guy. Mick mentioned how well Bucks did on Thoams but needed to work on his concentration a little more.

Will be a good test for Dylan, who did a few good things against North. I like it.
