but we'll probably risk him on the nice even surfaces of preston city oval

I am hearing ankle and back.

Last weeks kicking had all the hallmarks of an injected player.

Injury not holding him back from playing but probably having an influence on his game. Dont know if he is playing for the bullants this week or if he isnt playing for the blues. Just saying i am told he is struggling with his fitness.

should be rested then

Back will stop him from flying.

TC'ers have been saying for years Judd needs a chop out.
Is there a reason the M.C. have only just started saying it?
let alone doing it.

Why do you want to hear the MC talking about it?

They are saying that 3AW reported that Gibbs will be dropped. Another poster said that Gibbs, Jacobs and Joseph will be dropped.
If true, it is disappointing that leaks are still coming out of the club.

I wouldn't be surprised if Gibbs is injured, his kicking has been nowhere near it's usual level the last couple of weeks, he's nearly missed more targets than he's hit. However why the hell should he be exempt from demotion? It would send a far more pointed message to the rest of the playing group than dropping a lesser light. Definitely worked for the Saints with Dal Santo, and don't we all love Ross Lyon around here. I think it was in the Herald-Sun article the other day where Gibbs was described as a "nice" player, not a great player, and to be honest that's how he looks a lot of the time, like he's going at about 85%. I'm not saying that's true, appearances can be deceptive, and I'm not saying he deserves demotion more or less than a host of players after the last fortnight but I'm not sure why he's above it even if he's horribly out of form.

Gibbs' output doesn't warrant demotion imo.

Play him forward, and rotate him in the guts.

If he's played injured...then that's stupid; rest him, don't demote him.

Agreed.

I hope Essendon* folds.

Is it confirmed that Warnock comes in for either Sauce or Hammer? Or possible that we play all 3?
Assuming he replaces one of them....

Lucas > Houlihan (IF Houlihan is right to go... otherwise, AJ/Carrazzo get reprieve and Ellard comes in for Lucas)
Sauce > Warnock
Carrazzo/AJ > Ellard
Gibbs > Johnson (IF Gibbs is out)

I don't want to hear them talking about it it's just odd that it comes out at this time.
Thye've been working for years to give Judd a chop out but it hasn't happened yet so there must be reasons.

Hadley's running round in the Magoos.

There are a fair few mooted ins and outs over at BF. Ins seem stable but outs are varying wildly.

For the first time in his coaching career, Ratts appears to be underachieving. It will be interesting to see how he handles it and reacts.

Looking forward to seeing our potential realised.

And no one seems interested in Fisher.

Article on the Carlton site says : Brad Fisher kicked four goals for the Bullants on the weekend but will need to impress the coach at least one more time before he gets the green light to return from pre-season LARS surgery.

I would've thought he'd done enough myself.

I guess they are hoping hampson will bag 4? Yarran? Betts? Hendo?
Only eddie has proven to kick multiple goals consistently. Where are are goals going to come from? Surely fish should come in to provide another option!

Perhaps the whole side could be hypnotised?
