Only too likely to be true. :banghead:

Nothing a good match committee can't do to change that ideology!

Ins - Williamson, Stocker, Setterfield/Kennedy, Phillips

Outs - Newman, Simmo, Kreuzer, O'Brien

Like for like for injuries and form.

Charlie in for Levi IF he's fit.

Our setup worked perfectly until the players went down. Don't change too much.

Schumacher should be the first selected for the HBF position, Williamson is still recovering and we shouldn’t rush him, Sticker hasn’t got the tank yet and is still learning. Schumacher has done the hard yards for over a year now and was emergency already once this year.

So Schumacher in for sure then Williamson if we need another HBF. Given we mostly need experience in the backline I’d prefer to push Thomas back and bring in either Kennedy or Setterfield to the mid field to assist Cripps.

Then Phillips for Kruezer.

C Curnow seems fragile so give him a run in the seconds to make sure he is right, he is out of form anyway.

Schumacher has to play, Been on the list for 3 years. We have to see if he can play senior’s surely.

The old Caro method of calculating how long someone's been on a list, I see. He was drafted on 24 November 2017 so less than 18 months on our list.

I reckon he's looking okay for a pick 70.

McGovern to miss with a hammy, according to the Hun.

Weird, nothing on the club website about that

CARLTON’S injury woes are mounting, with Mitch McGovern suffering a hamstring injury. The former Crow was also injured in that loss to the Hawks, now joining Simpson, Newman and Kreuzer on the sidelines. McGovern will miss this week and possibly next. More on @superfooty

This has become beyond a joke.
So much for our new fitness guru, players keep re-injuring themselves , same as last year.

Don’t like where this is heading.....

If they weren’t already, North will be very confident I reckon.

I doubt they'd be confident about much at all at present. Too busy thinking about Cripps, sps, mckay, charlie, walsh, jones, weitering, etc.... all in great nick
