No, but you will have at 10:35 pm on Friday night.

Pretty sure one of your lot said that last time and how did that turn out for you

 

[WalshYouLegend]

If it's not a danger game, it's a must winonly two types of games on bigfooty.

This is both. A must win danger game.

Anyone else hearing there will be plenty of changes this week? I’ve heard Cerra, Cunners, Orazio and Cincotta will all play. Can anyone confirm?

I suspect that the conformation will come tomorrow at 6.25 p.m.?

I dare say so

 

[BigFrizz36]

I dare say so

Wasn't trying to be smart. It's just that there are a heap on here who claim inside info but I'm not one. Personally I think that Cerra, Cincotta and Cuningham will come in.

Can’t confirm but I hope so, we need a few fresh bodies into the team

I’m definitely not in the know. But I’d have no problems with those players coming in. Orazio and Cinc are match fit. Cerra and Cuningham will be ready to go.

Carroll, Ollie, Binns and Durdin/Owies can make way.

Vossy and his lieutenants will work out who plays where..

Makes us stronger..

 

[Blue4Life]

I’ll be disappointed if I don’t get to see collingwood fans leaving early

I can understand if Ollie is dropped, but I'd be surprised if it was for Binns

Newman to a wing. Cerra back flank.

 

[Benaly28]

I’m liking angry Voss,

He knows we’re close this year.

[Blues_Man]

Both would have destroyed us. So that’s good that they are missing.

Their replacements will destroy us. That’s bad.

Both been spudding it up all year, I suggest you watch some games

Watch some Collingwood games? I am not a masochist.

Not sure. Told Ollie is out. Expect Cerra to come in at least

McGovern is fine as is Cuningham. Will they be given another week?

IMO Cincotta should be in

Be very interesting selection. Voss so far has never made many, if any changes and has always backed players in

Gut feel is we will see 3-4 changes this week. Hope so as id like to see a statement made

fantasia seems an odd one. seems to be given a lot of chances especially if hes coming in for owies who has been down but has runs on the board in 2024

would like to see cuningham as a specialist sub. has brilliance but goes missing, perhaps if hes the specialist sub he'll have 30 minutes of highlights

cerra for carroll or hollands is an easy one. would require a wing reshuffle though as hollands does a lot of the defensive running. is binns up to it?

I’d say we have enough contest players and need a few on the outside with some class.

Cerra, Cunners & Fantasia fit that bill.

If they get 45-50 golden touches between them - you know it’s going to flow forward through the corridor like a golden thread .

Eww

 

[ESKIE]

Orazio plays imo

 

[skadoosh]

Fantasia hasn't kicked many goals himself. But he seems to consistently position himself enabling him to be the last link in a scoring chain.

 

[bradfisher14]

I would be going with this personally:

IN - Cerra, Cincotta, Fantasia, Cuningham
OUT - Carroll, O. Hollands, Binns, Cowan
Owies SUB

Rotate one of Cottrell, Walsh, Cerra, and Elijah on the wing to replace Ollie.

AFL Teams Round 8: Blue ‘ready to go’… but teammate to miss; new Crows backline as top pick debuts

Blue ‘ready to go’… but teammate to miss; new Crows backline as top pick debuts: Rd 8 Teams

Carlton will regain star midfielder Adam Cerra for its Friday night blockbuster against Collingwood at the MCG.
Carlton coach Michael Voss said Cerra, who suffered a hamstring strain in the lead up to Round 5 and has missed three matches, could have faced the Cats last weekend but had been held back after a recent history of hamstring issues.

was “not ready” for the Friday night clash as he recovered from his own hamstring injury, but was “more likely” to return against Melbourne next Thursday.

Fantasia has the ability and brings what we need BUT look at what he has produced this year and he doesn't deserve a spot. If he's picked it's more on hope than anything else

 

[bigscalpy]

I’m liking angry Voss,

He knows we’re close this year.

Close to what exactly? Another loss in the prelim?....
