They won't let Judd run free like the filth did tonight.

is this at etihad too?

will be a tougher game than tonight - buckleys coaching was somewhat arrogant

depending on how krooz pulls up - i would go with 1 ruck again (yes i know we didnt go into this game with just the 1)

They'll follow the Bombers model against us, rather than the Pies I guess.
Too bad it's at frikkin Etihard.

As good as this winning feeling is this week, we match up well against the Pois.

Norf is a team that matches up well against us and will be a huge test to see if we have turned this mythical corner.

Glad (sadly) to see the 3 ruckmen policy is dead now...

Completely different style played by North. Going to be an interesting game, particularly as I felt our motivation was through the roof this game and shone through the game.

Not sure I'd play Warnock, might be time for T-Bird or Mitchell in place of Hammer.

Murphy? Another interesting call.

Thomas didn't play in our game last year, will be long overdue for a birthday celebration.

Shoot out with Garlett. Who will kick the most points?

Biggest game of the year. It just is.

We play ok, we'll win.
We play like we did against St Kilda, Port etc. we won't.

Just keep playing the kids. This has been the huge upside of our injuries.

Watson, McInness, Bootsma etc. They need games and are the future and bring excitement to our side.

Id play the one ruckman. Casboult or Mitchell will soon assume the key forward back up ruckman role but not yet.

Play Thornton in that role. He will go up against Petrie and it will only be for a few minutes a quarter.

Over the next few weeks it will be good to see OKeefe, Buckley, Dale, Casboult get a run.

For this week it will be Thronton for Hampson.

My changes would be:

Out
- Hampson (inj)
- Simpson (inj)

In
- Warnock
- Lucas/Murphy if fit

Sounds as though Simpson is out and Henderson is right to go.

For me:

Out: Simpson Hampson Garlett
In: Henderson Murphy Lucas

Especially since its at Etihad drop Garlett for another mid as there isnt the space.

B: AJ Jamison McInness
HB: Touhy Watson Yarran
C: Gibbs Carrazzo Scotland
HF: Robinson Duigan Armfield
F: Betts Henderson Walker
Foll: Kruezer Judd Murphy
Int: Lucas Curnow Collins (McLean)
Em: Bootsma OKeefe Dale

Hopefully the MC have know realised our best set up is with extra runners and more rotations through the midfield. That is our strength and especially what we need at Etihad.

In the next few weeks we will have the emergencies plus Waite, Simpson, Davies, Garlett, Ellard plus possibly Casboult & Mitchell pushing for a spot.

This game has GIBBS written all over it. He'll carve these blokes off half-back.

AJ to Harvey. AJ has a bit more confidence about him and I'd back him all the way to keep Harvey under control, especially as he likes to push up the ground hard, playing into Joseph's strengths.

Jeffy to kick 0.4.

Carlton by 3 goals.
