Given the announcements, I'd say we're looking like this:

FB: Haynes - Young - Cowan
HB: Saad - Weitering - O. Hollands
C: L. Camporeale - Cripps - Acres
HF: Williams - McKay - Walsh
FF: Motlop - Kemp - Fogarty
R: DeKoning - Hewett - Cerra

Silvagni - McGovern - Fantasia - Cottrell
sub: Docherty

E. Hollands is the interesting one... Limited minutes in pre-season suggest he's not an automatic selection at this stage. It's a real toss up between Fantasia, Hollands, Cottrell, Docherty... and maybe, for structural reasons, Silvagni and Young.


Take out Young and add in E Hollands and i think you have it

Lynch may not play this Thursday for Tigers, unless he has overcome the quad issue he had last week.

No rain expected. Not much wind either.

I think score will be something like

40 points vs 130 points.

P. Cripps 3 votes

Lucas Camporeale Rising star

Orazio Fantasia has a soft tissue injury and will miss Carlton’s season opener against Richmond, @StevoMedia tells @RSNBreakfast

Yep. I can't see Young, Weitering, Jack, McGovern and Haynes all in defence. I'd suggest Jack will get first crack as the second tall defender. Young plays as a second ruck if Harry is sore IMHO or he misses out.

That's disappointing. Hopefully it's not significant as he looked really good in the pre-season. High speed running and great ball use.

Have there been any official reports about Harry?

Absolutely nothing.
I'd fully expect him to either not play or be a late out.

Shocked that I'm actually disappointed by this. When he's fit he has looked great. Looks like this is going to be another one of those years for him.

Lots of rumor around about Harry, Fog and Cottrell all being out.

IF only the club would be open about injuries........... :donk:

He only played a qtr of the practice game. May be intentional, but he appeared to do something to his knee beforehand.
He was at training Sunday but apparently didn't do the full session, same with Fogarty and Cottrell I believe.

I know what you mean Heavs.

He has blown us all away with his form and fitness this preseason. He has shown us glimpses from the past, and what he may bring for us in 2025.

Deserved to be named in round 1 team. Oh well.

Good point Mickstar.

Media haven't been onto it. Makes me wonder.

Lynch will be named in round 1 team.

I wonder if he's looking forward to catching up with weitering? :sly:

I will wait until the team is announced on Wednesday before I rue the loss of players to injury. Too many rumors are taken too seriously and make me nervous!

GO BLUES!

If Fantasia is going to miss, I wonder if they might parachute Mr White into the side for a bit of foot speed to bamboozle the young Tigers.
