I get the feeling we leaked the injury news early to a few pies friendly journalists to try and get the Cheats drinking their own hubris pre gameMy go to says that JDG will play and Mitchell is out for Macrae.
That's what I was hoping too.. a little bit of Fly psychology/mind games.I get the feeling we leaked the injury news early to a few pies friendly journalists to try and get the Cheats drinking their own hubris pre game
And then smack them between the eyes before the first bounce
As long as they don't get an extra No. 1 pick.Carlton should get an extra wooden spoon just for that.
where there's a will, there's a way
I think it's relevant to acknowledge that the 1 point win against Brisbane came from being 46 points down in the second quarter. This performance encapsulated Carlton's mentality this season, where they have also fought back from two 20-point deficits against GWS to win and got within 2 kicks of Geelong late in the game, kicking 3 goals in 3 minutes when 30-odd points down.Carton are the most overrated side in the competition.
A summary of their 5 wins:
-One point win against Brisbane after that putrid first half.
-5 point win against Richmond who had 3 players off early with injury.
-10 point win against Freo with huge umpire interference.
-A win against North, which means nothing.
-A good win against GWS. I’ll pay them that one. Although it was at Marvel and against GWS without their best defender.
The scoreboard flattered them against Geelong, who put the cue in the rack, as most teams do with a 5 goal lead in time on.
Carlton won the clearances as they will against us, but we will get them on the counter attack, just like Geelong did.
I would inject some run and dare by bringing back Markov for this one.
Looking forward to Friday. I think everyone in the media will be reassessing their views afterward.
And Sullivan into the selection frame was mentioned if Jordy ruled out.7news reporting that Mitchell will miss a week
Yeah, Makes sense.And Sullivan into the selection frame was mentioned if Jordy ruled out.
Fin for Titch I would think.
AJ is better than a lot of our other senior players .. his disposal efficiency is also goodBeautiful kick except for his field kicking and goal
Beautiful kick except for his field kicking and goal kicking
Those wins prove Carlton can’t either though? Don’t think to many teams are. Geel prob the clear front runnerI think it's relevant to acknowledge that the 1 point win against Brisbane came from being 46 points down in the second quarter.

To me these 3 performances are, for the moment, concerning for us. We are yet to string together a 4-quarter performance and will more than likely need to this Friday night if we're to get the 4 points.
As underdogs however there's plenty of upside for us. Win, and it'll show genuine improvement and an innate ability to find a way. Lose, but put in a good performance, and it'll be an expected result that the coaching staff can point to as the watermark in order to drive improvement and standards.
Geelong. GWS and Swans would be my top 3Those wins prove Carlton can’t either though? Don’t think to many teams are. Geel prob the clear front runner
I’m more saying the Bear didn’t pull the digits out and claim his chances more than he did. Unless you are saying the same.That was Bear’s call though, not the clubs.

What a disaster. How many goals are we tipping Carlton to win by, TradeDraft?Sounds like neither will play, so fin for mitchell and if jordy doesnt get up, then sullivan debut
Would be a real different midfield
10 I think he said lolWhat a disaster. How many goals are we tipping Carlton to win by, TradeDraft?
Not beyond the realms of possibility. If Bruzzy is going spend time on Cripps even with JDG playing he might get a look in. Outside chance but who knows they could also play him if, as some have suggested Sidey is sub or perhaps gets subbed off, JFN could push up to a wing. HH probably ahead of him but depends what we have planned.Like to see Maynard on the ball if JDG is out,
Perhaps markov back to play hbf.
Just my thoughts
Sure, you could argue that.Those wins prove Carlton can’t either though? Don’t think to many teams are. Geel prob the clear front runner
