Preview Rnd 17 - Carlton v St Kilda Friday July 13 Darklands 7.50pm

[Mr_Plow]

Step 1: win at the selection table = done
Step 2: win on the football field = pending

 

[Benaly28]

I’d put Lang away and get him right.No preseason struggling big time.

 

[FoeverBlues]

We look Fast and Furious

 

[Dadda Dave]

IN

• Kade Simpson,
• Jarrod Garlett,
• Paddy Dow,
• Harry McKay,
• Matt Shaw

OUT

• Jacob Weitering (Injured),
• Matthew Wright (Managed),
• Nick Graham (Omitted),
• Andrew Phillips (Injured),
• Darcy Lang (Injured)

NEW

• Matt Shaw

How can Graham be omitted and Wright be down as managed . Would of thought both omitted on poor form .

 

[Michael Jezz]

I think we will win this. Carlton by 21 points
Best team of the year

 

[TooBlue14]

4 slow players out (2 above 195 cm) + Lang for 5 fast players (1 above 195 cm). This is how you play Etihad. Bring the pressure boys.

 

[AB_Blue]

Like it

They actually picked a HBF/Wing to play in that area instead of a KPD.

It’s a mobile line up

Our club showing how spineless it is bowing to the media pressure re playing Harry. Great to see we stuck to our guns....not!!

 

[Blubagger71]

I like the balance of this team and the positive vibe building on here.
Very happy for Shaw, let's hope his experience helps. Harry and Charlie together. Nice!
Smaller, faster back line. Nice!
Win this one for the jumper and pride boys! Noooiiiucceee!

 

[Talrahir]

Always look on the bright side of life - Gehrig is retired.

Or that little weasel, Milne.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Good.

 

[Blue Doormat]

Probably should have played Shaw earlier in the season than this. Shaw, his form hasn’t been brilliant but shawly it’s better than the tall and heavy lineups we’ve had all year?

 

[La Dispute]

That's pretty vindictive.

I'm wrapt he's back in the team because it improves our lineup.

 

[HBF]

I quite like this team.

Me too.
One of the better balanced sides we've selected all year.

 

[Blueing]

At last Shaw to debut....we should have played him last week with Simpson out....at least a quicker side

 

[HBF]

I quite like the HF line...

 

[El Topo]

Speed kills. C'mon boys, smash these filthy maggots for your skipper.

Only watched one full game of his and that was against Essendon in the VFL and he was underwhelming, turning it over several times. I hope it was an aberration. Either way he is about to achieve what I fantasized since I was 5.

I'm rapt too but what has changed from last week when he didn't play? He certainly didn't have a game to show his form. He should've been playing a long time ago but it takes media pressure to get him a game. Pathetic.

 

[Mondyboy]

Saints have been playing fast footy. Nice that we’ve picked a side that’s mobile enough to take that on.

[TerryWallet]

Only 4 deckchairs left by my count. Now the cohesion parts can start.

It's still gonna require patience, but we're getting through the stages.

Hooyah

Bolton explained this, in great detail, in the presser. Though I agree he should have played last week.

Hey guys was wondering whether Murphy looks fully fit or is still a bit affected by injuries? and is he playing more of a wing/outside mid role?

Has always been an outside player.
