The onlyvreason there would be talk of carlton making the 8 is to try to salvage some of the lost revenue from the finals series based on current ladder positions from 6 weeks ago.

So Moir, Lord, Mirkov will likely miss the last VFL game of the year if they are all emergencies.

Given the overall lack of experience, I am sure they'll pick C Durdin to play.

I hate to say it, but the season is gone. Let this one go. Get ourselves a friendlier fixture for next year. Book players in for surgery etc now. One last crack at it next year with this group before we blow it all up and start again. Yes it's defeatist, but it's the reality of the situation. Winning this week or next, whilst would be an achievement, is merely prolonging a wasted season

They only have about 30 to choose from, should be pretty easy selection meeting.

At least 6 changes
I’m kinda excited to see new faces in the team
In
Binns
Lemmey
Lord
Wilson
Carroll
Durdin
Wilson plays Saad’s role
Binns on a wing
Lord in the guts
Lemmey as a key target up forward
Durdin to play mid forward
Carroll sub
Play Cripps in attack
Acres to play on ball changing forward with Kennedy
Both Acres and Kennedy can play forward
Kick out season is [REDACTED] but Voss has no option but to play kids

Can’t see Saad and Martin playing against Saints with hammies
Boyd Fogarty gone for the year
Curnow may be back
Quads can be long term for H

:lol: :lol: :lol: That injury list is surreal.

Possession game. Hit up short takes. Find a man 35-45 out. No bombs. Strategic placement inside F50.

Does anyone know if we have open training this week? I’m thinking of rocking up Paul Meldrum style. I’m 54yrs old but I reckon I’m a chance…

I don’t think those players should risk any running before the game

Same. Now that the dust's settled & I've had a bit of a mope, I'm back to looking forward to game day as usual & keen for a win. Heading down to tommi's for the occasion so it'll be a laugh either way

During covid we played West Coast at Sydney when they had a stack of injuries, & they chinned us, time to return the favour.
