Nothing sure than Powell-Peppar getting in our faces and trying to upend a few . I tell ya , if we cop it like Lambs like we did against North then I will go ape droppings . Don't care who's in and who's out , whether we win or lose , don not under any circumstances roll over .

Some big news out of Carlton ahead of tomorrow night’s clash with Port Adelaide: Patrick Cripps has been quarantined from main playing group due to illness. Blues still hopeful he’ll play. @FootyonNine

Must be from all the talk and no action, that can be quite contagious.

Update

No Patrick Cripps for today’s Captain’s Run in Adelaide due to illness. The Blues confident he’ll play.

Jacob Weitering still proppy but completed agility drills & did the full session. Looks good to go after his ankle injury.

No Matt Carroll or Jaxon Binns with the squad of 30

"Quarantined" gives me lockdown flashbacks.

Also if he has something like gastro he's probably already infected half the side anyway.

I hope he doesn't play . The bloke is exhausted . Give him a spell before he's burnt out completely .

Good to see Carroll and Binns dropped. Both were awful against north

Let’s hope Voss doesn’t make Wilson or Young be the sub

How about you Persist with Binns for the rest of the year and get him to learn the craft the hard way? he is the future isn't he?

But NO, he publically gets humilated by the Coach as if he was the only One not doing his job, then will get dropped tonight whilst some of the Seniors continue to get games with no accountability what so ever.... This is where we are as a Club.... Pathetic!

We had a bye early in the season, he played a couple good games. His last 6 weeks he's been average. Last week he was going to "level up" and was beaten.

I'm not letting Cripps make excuses.

Hewett has been carrying this group all year. Cripps has been ordinary. We've been carrying him.

His handballs dont hit targets. Because of that, his target has to bend down at the bouncing ball, look up and gets crunched, when he should be hit on the tit by Cripps so thay can run off. Cripps makes us sooooo slow, when you count the seconds it tale from his hanball to his targets movem,ent with ball secured.

And when he gets the ball, he's gone back to mr superman selfishly trying to get himself into the game to find form and in doing so burns his team mates in abetter postion for a hand ball.

Thanks Effes and Crusader for giving me the courage to look at question his output, not take him for granted, and look at him closely. I went back and watched games after Effes said post game for the 2nd week in a row Cripps was average after I doubted his harsh opinion on Cripps. Effes was right. Cru was also saying itfor a while.

He's th friggin captain and he's not moving hearts and minds let alone his arse out of the midfield group he stifles.

Tell it as it is....maybe he injured. maybe he's got a runny nose, maybe his babee kepy him up, maybe he's reading too many self awareness and leadership books.

Paralysis through analysis. That's what he's suffering from.
He's planning on his post footy future as a motivator, that's why he loves Vosssy, and he's not thinking of winning games, otherwise he'd be geeing up his team mates and get rigght up them to keep them on their toes....instead he allows players to be conditional.

Hollands is the one who looked like he needed a rest imo.

His shoulder dropped. He couldnt tackle and use his left arm.

He's just a skinny kid.

If he plays that's the state of our depth.

I bet Binns will be dopped for chasing kicks like it was VFL and not playing his role, and we are forced to keep Hollands on the ground.

He's got one year left on his contract. He's costing us $100K pa plus games. Less than LOB when he had a contract, but was delisted to make way for Acres.

Give you my tip. He aint the future.

Hey Cazzesman

Fair enough

Since posting it was good to hear Billy Wilson and Flynn Young will debut.

You would think one of them might be Sub?

I hope Wilson gets a full game.

How about if not Charlie at CHB - giving him a crack in the middle on occasion?

Some rumors going around that Crippa is ill and won't be playing.

Id like to think Cerra will lift if thats the case

Maybe Ben Campo in to replace Ollie?

You are right though the team desperately needs a spark, but really it should be coming from the team as a whole.

They all would and should have got an almighty rocket during review of the North Game. They simply HAVE to respond...

Go Blues

_________________
Cripps is the man

The whole team was awful, with the exception of Hewett Haynes and Gov....Ollie tried with one arm in a sling.
Fantasia and williams ok for a half.

Carroll was on and off an elite player in McKercher. Cincotta should have tagged him, not Carroll. Carroll played better than Charlie, who had a rookie who was delisted by Swans and kept Charlie goaless.

Lets see teams...I think Carroll can do with a rest. He's still young, 20yo, too young for the big boys. Thats where we are as a club.

One 20yo out and another 20yo in. Come on down Wilson.

Its a kindergarten. I hate this sort of shit. Develop the kids in the VFL, but our cupboard is bare. Its a crisis.

I wonder how many injured players we play.
