Yep, lucky. We will need the extra 3 days after two hot games.

Last two weeks has given us some confidence. Now the next two weeks will show us if we can compete with the top teams.
Get Harry back, hope Weits is ok and we play like we did today and we can beat Geelong. Our midfield is the key, no doubt.

Interesting to see wht they do with selection. Obviously it depends on fitness, but how do you fit Harry into this side?

Let's hope Easter Monday is a tough bruising encounter, which it usually is

Geelong are far too professional for that to be a factor next week.

Maintain the sensible F50 entries we have used recently, as in ''no bombing''.
In other words don't kick it to Tom Stewart.

He might be playing at the other end of the ground next week

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I wouldn't mind if McKay didn't get up for this game.
If fit, Voss will pick him but his head space is unknown, and his physicality has always been below par for someone his size... Lewis Young is miles ahead of him atm, and there's no way we should be playing both of them at the expense of the mobile fwd line of the past 2 weeks.

I agree on all of this.

He's a huge unknown. Play him in the VFL (if it's on) again if he is able to play.

Carlton say Jacob Weitering is OK after that knee-on-knee clash with Nick Larkey that sidelined him late in the game. Despite PCL fears, the Blues state the defender will play Geelong next week. @1116sen

Is that fresh out of the club today or is Sam summarising what Voss said post match?
