We need clearance players against the Dogs and you want to drop a guy who had 3-4 in about 15 minutes last week before he got injured?

Gibbons on thin ice after his last few weeks but MC obviously know what’s best...........


Maybe Gibbons is better at playing a role and following team instructions than Dow or SPS, and neither Dow nor SPS are playing close enough to their full, gifted potential to outweigh the value of Gibbons?


We got smacked at centre clearances last week. We wont get away with a win if we serve that up again.
Out of around 39 centre bounces, Walsh our best with 3. Cripps and Pittonet 2 and Dow with 2 in 15 minutes of footy. Dow was our ball winner when he was on the ground. You don't discard that when your options are limited. I'd roll the dice.
Zac Williams has shown himself to be a very good stoppage clearance winner but he doesn't win enough centre square ball yet.

Personally I'm hoping the situation has been created by the coaches teaching Dow a lesson for not working his way through his injury last week and toughing it out. However If he was ruled out medically and has been dropped, I think it's shortsighted.


He did have an eye injury...

Anyway, I'd play both Dow and SPS but what would I know

Dow was subbed last week wasn't he?
Isn't he forced to miss because of the sub rule?


Nope. That rule doesn’t exist. I’m annoyed about Dow but I’m more annoyed about SPS. He had 14 touches in just over a half and was one of our most creative players. Far more dangerous than Cottrell, Newnes, or Gibbons

I'm pumped after watching Jackie DeKoning ( De-Kone-ing) and Tracey McKay (Mack-hi as in flying high for the mark).

Hilarious.

Boys would be pumped too after watching their mums go nuts.

Looks like Mother's Day at the club was a hoot for all concerned.

Mrs Cottrell was a hit too. Like a champagne in the morning, if she snifs one out.

Comradery must be great at Carlton Football Club.

Hope the boys leave the hilarious of this morning behind, and take the Comradery out together on the field, and let your angry tablets kick in.

Go Blues.
