So do we play LOB, TDK and Kennedy to remind them of who we got out of the Gibbs trade?

Do we rest Docherty? 3 games in 10 days coming off two knee reconstructions?

Pardon my ignorance here, but what has happened to Lochie O'Brien?
Injured or unloved?

Seemingly unloved. Pretty sure he has played every scratch match.

TC curse, standard

If Gibbs has any semblance of loyalty, justice and flat out respect he will actually do things on the ground, many things that assist Carlton. Miss set shots at goal. Tackle his teammates. Kick out on the full. Handball to Carlton players (in good positions). Cheer when Carlton kick goals. Berate his Crows teammates.

No, I didn't know about the TC curse, sorry for bruising toes.

Hey, isn't it an absolute comfort that we seem to have a very stable back 6 at long last?

Liam Jones, Lachie Plowman, Sam Docherty, Jacob Weitering, Kade Simpson, Sam Petrevski-Seton

I know there's debate as to who no.6 is given SPKs been there most of the year & Williamson was listed there last week instead of him having slipped in when Lachie was out, but a stable 6 has been the hallmark of Carlton Premiership teams Always.

I just think Willo is too mistake prone at the moment, maybe try him on a forward flank where it's not so critical.

This looks the closest in years.

Pls leave Simmo alone, he's good for another year if form/fitness actually count.

Any general agreement on this folks?

I'm predicting Cottrell win take a big mark and kick the match winner.

Not certainties but as Adelaide need to travel to Queensland for this one and not at home and given terrible start on Tuesday if we get up early and if and is a big if We get scoreboard pressure on we should win as we have a better side .
Agree with BV need to win these games as part of our maturing as a side .

Absolutely have to win this game.

Our current position on the ladder is 11th.

We have beaten 5 of the 7 teams below us.
Beat Crows and we have beaten 6 of the 7 below us.
We know what happened vs Hawks. We learned from that.

We have beaten 1 of the 10 teams above us: Geelong.
We play one above us next week.

Have to win this to support a story of improvement, our rise and our potential ... and Destination Club.

The final nail in the coffin for Adelaide when Gibbs passes to his Betts for the winning goal after the siren.

While this all may be true, you may also not know that apparently Plowman is bad, Simmo is too old, Williamson should be dropped and SPS does not belong in the backline and should be on the wing.

Have to win this to support a story of improvement, our rise and our potential ... and Destination Club. Hey, Bondi, one of the reasons they are below us is that we beat them and other teams beat them. If they had beaten us and other teams, they'd be above us. And when we beat them, where were they relative to us? At the time we played them, were they above us? We lost to Richmond on day one so theoretically, after that every team was above us. In 16 weeks we've managed to climb to 11th after a brief stint at 9th. This is a vexed issue and needs some serious research and not just a throw away post. I'd better get on it right away. I might use PA as an example. They've only beaten teams below them as well. You might be on to something.
