We have 34 fit players to choose from.

However:
Ramsay: 0 games
Durdin: 0 games, just back from injury
Boyd: 0 games, just joined the club
Gibbons - coming back from a hammy.
Kemp: 0 games
Carroll: 0 games

That leaves 28 players.

Cottrell has only *just* been dropped to find form.
Murphy the same.
Do they need at least 2 games in the VFL to press their case?

Martin has been in bad form since he returned, and is due to be dropped.

That leaves 25 players to choose from.

Picking 6 defenders, 6 forwards, 2 rucks and 8 mids:

Williams - Jones - Docherty
Newman - Weitering - Saad
Fisher - Kennedy - SPS
Fogarty - McKay - Honey
Owies - Silvagni - Betts
De Koning - Walsh - Cripps

Pittonet - Stocker - Dow - E. Curnow

Sub from: O'Brien - Williamson - Newnes


I came to the same conclusion.

I'd consider Murphy as the 23rd to get his 5 games needed for 300, out of the way.
As mentioned earlier, we have an excuse to select him after his good game in the Ressies


Lineup would not work. Players back in their natural positions and the MC would never think of it.

A rewarded player in Honey.

We have plenty of supposed small forwards. Fisher is meant to be a mid so let him play on a wing. SPS finally gets his chance further forward. Stocker on ball, who would have thought of that. Docherty our defence captain back in a severely leaking defence, who would have thought of that.

And Murphy, as the sub quietly sneaking creeping to his 300.


Someone send an email to the MC.

I'm not sure they said Pittonet is out but that he'll require end of year surgery. At least that is how I read it but I guess we'll find out soon.

Providing we have a player spearing 40 meter passes to a chest I am happy....and thats Murphy.

If we have three thats even better Murphy, Williams and Saad.

Current mix is in no mans land. If we can defend better and create better chances we will win more games than not our footskills and running power out of the middle is nothing short of disgraceful atm

Time to give Honey a go. He’s put in a solid body of work in the 2s and is deserving of an opportunity.
Play Ed on the ball tagging Laird or don’t play him at all.
If we don’t stand for what happened last weekend, at least one of Doc, Williams or Martin is omitted.
If Pitto is out, try JSOS or Cripps as a back up. We’ll need to get creative

Yes it does seem you have been blinded by bias.

a huge triple injury blow for carlton. Pittonet ankle surgery, long term. Gibbons hamstring today, likely season. Fisher ankle today, will miss this week

To be fair, with three additional injuries their hands were tied somewhat.
