Yeah somehow I can’t see Andrew Russell being strong armed by the MC into playing a player that is not ready, last year is last year and there is a stark difference between then and now.

Damn!
Dammit
It's doing it again ...
Hype
Come Wednesday, I tipped GWS by 35
Then I saw Coniglio go out ... Newman come back in ... Media praying to Cripps ... The Club going relatively silent, as if steeling itself ...
I'm sniffing an upset

`This will not be a 24-30 point loss ...
We will either be right in it up to our necks OR it will be a blow out.
I'm getting nervous

I agree Ed would help to some extent but even Ed only averaged 11-12 contested and 4-5 clearances and Kennedy numbers wise isn’t even at Fish’s level yet so he would be a blocker and disrupter for Cripps rather than a major ball winning factor. Fact is and we all realise it we are still one A grade mid short until the young guys develop more, I actually think it is a big part of us not being able to close out games at this stage as late in games we are consistently losing those centre stoppages.
This has me thinking that maybe with the mid season draft we should target exactly that, a big ball winning mid as a stop gap till next year when the others should be at that level, Marlion Pickett on a short term basis maybe and see if he can cope with playing footy at the top level in Melbourne, we have nothing to lose and a lot to gain by rolling the dice and trying to get a few more wins for the year. Just my thoughts and sorry Aph I know wrong thread for it.
Edit: Or if we want someone to develop long term I think Kyle Dunkley would be great and I believe he has the size and skills to come straight in to our midfield to help Cripps. Or Meadows or Hibberd who is looking big and strong as an inside mid, wish Setters had his size already and we wouldn’t be talking about this.
Sorry Aph that’s it I’m done.

Something the audience is going to hear a lot of at this years brownlow, right before “I’m pleased to announce this years Brownlow medallist, with the most votes in history, is Patrick Cripps of the Carlton Football Club”

Hello Blues is there any substance to the rumour that Setterfield will be a late OUT this week?

Before mobile phones a group of us just knew to meet each other under the scoreboard. Kick on the ground after the siren. Then off to the Fenwick amongst others where we had a drink and watched the players of both sides occupying a corner. Good times

Haven’t heard anything like that. Fisher and Curnow had niggles last week but that’s it.
That is the post of the century.....GOLD!
Don’t be too upset, Tony will get a plum diplomatic role as a retirement gift. It’s all good.
