Kreuzer late out for McKay?

That would be good

Just to play devils advocate; we played some of our best footy last year with a backline of Weitering, Jones, Marchbank and Plowman. At times Alex Silvagni was in that group too. Tall backline doesn’t necessarily mean doom and gloom.

Also, Kreuzer has to play when fit, one of our top 5 players. Good luck dropping Phillips after last weeks strong performance too. I don’t like the 2 ruckmen, but I do like rewarding form.

There are two Carltons: the push the opposition for three quarters only to bottle it in the last Carlton, or the 8 goals down at quarter time Carlton. I fear this game will be the second one.

This is where we cement another nubmer 1 pick

I know you're playing a Devil's Advocate but there is our problem. To pick a properly balanced side sometimes players are unlucky. You don't reward form to the extent of totally unbalancing your side. You pick a side to play to their strengths. We pick 4 tall defender because we think they deserve to play, watch our lack of rebound from defence, an important part of the modern game, and then we pick as ruckman who'll spend half a game forward, a role he his no good at, because we think he deserves to play. That's how you lose games. I'm all for rewarding for but not to the extent of screwing up the side. You don't pick two wicket keepers because one filled in and did well the previous Test and doesn't deserve to be dropped. Good sides play players in their correct roles. Rucks play ruck, forwards play forward. 2 rucks has failed us 1000 times, to me, as unlucky as Phillips would be, you don't go back there.

Alex Silvagni is quick and can play on tall and small.

I agree too tall, again.

I know many of our running players are either unavailable or not very good, but rewarding form over the top of a balanced side seems very odd

Maybe Kreuzer will play in the midfield and tag Zorko or maybe we'll just not tag him as usual.

Anyone forward would be better than what Casboult dished up last week.
Phillips went forward once marked and kicked goals.
I would rather have Kruezer forward at least he follows up chases and tackles
Side is tall but the games in Brisbane usually have congested forward 50
Casboult has been offering nothing need to try something

17th v 18th and we are $3.10 to win??

How far have we fallen?

Wow what a cluster “flower” this season been.

Paging Cam Wood:

Surely you exaggerate.
Last week Levi kicked 0-3, took two marks I can think of on the wing and was slaughtered in the ruck duels by Westhoff.
If Phillips kicks one goal (or four behinds), takes two or more marks around the ground and gets a few hit outs we are already in front.

No, i don't. I assume you know something about football. I'd be playing McKay or Kerr ahead of Phillips. Both are emergencies so they're fit. If you've followed football you would know our rucks are terrible forwards and one will be there at near all times. If you know your football you'd realise you play players in their correct roles to get the most out of them. Why would you play a ruckman forward when you could play a forward there. You'd know playing Phillips and Kreuzer together has failed us every time as both are first rucks who need to play the majority of the game on the ball, not interchanging up forward up forward where they are no good. Good sides play players to their their strengths and pick a side to their strengths. Carlton is not a good side for a few reasons, those being one of them. I think it's time for some sackings.

Definition of insanity....doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

Agree very tall team to put on the park. There may well be a plan in place.

That was the best 50m penalty ever given away. Let them know if you duck you'll get your head ripped off and hurt.

You're so anti-Casboult so anything you say about him is not to be taken serious. it'd be shit. I'd back Casboult injured and out of form to kick more goals than Phillips most weeks. I don't judge on one week and judge like you to fuel an agenda. I'll look at careers. Levi rucked ok last year and kicked 34 goals. Phillips and Kreuzer would be lucky to get half of that combined. Only a dummy of the highest order,or someone with a hate-filled agenda, would say otherwise.

With Levi getting his touch back after his injury you'd play another key forward.

spot on
