If the Carlton board and training reports are anything to go by, it'll be:

In: Moir, White
Out: Cottrell, Evans

My bad, I looked at 2023, the year we won our premiership. He played at least 67% in most games that year.

In 2024, 65% or more - 11/16 games. He played 66% & 67% in 3 games themselves.

We have gone 40-2-10 since the Cameron & Cox duo from R10 2022. I’ll stick with the 76% win rate combo.

Cox just isn’t the same player anymore. We need to look forward, not backwards.

 

[magpiewarrior]

Who wins the free kick count?
Curnow or Collingwood??

Cripps

Dang, I wanted Evans to play. He is utter garbage

Definitely Curnow!!

 

[Abdul_The_Bull]

Cripps

That'll be the Brownlow count....

Agree on Evan’s.
Makes Owies look like Eddie Betts.

You can just about lock in McKay not getting up for it. That deadset grub Edmund has mentioned nothing about him returning and he’d be lapping it up if it was a goer.

It looks like he misses again. Will that effect the Frampton selection?. I'm more worried about Kemp getting free. Kemp is an awkward match up. Probably won't need Frampton

I think Bruzzy or Howe can manage Kemp. Frampton can take Young who he matches up well for height and (lack of) pace.

Some big names there

Kemp is the one that worries me. He's super athletic with sticky hands. He's very hard to match up on

Howe is ideal for him.

 

[Apex36]

Still can't understand why Rossy gave him the boot

Rossy loves to hand us quality players for no return. It’s his 1 wood.

 

[Apex36]

Not just Saints though, the whole thing is wierd.

He was an unrestriced FA. How did he not get signed by anyone during trade week? Not even we were interested enough then.

I think his preference was to stay but they didn’t make a decision on his contract until trade week had played out. I’m not sure other clubs were really in the loop about what was happening with him until the end of trade period when it became clear he was being cut.

 

[Apex36]

Could it also be he was knocked out? Membrey was on the group for an extra 50 minutes and had the same stats as Cox.

Membrey also didn’t have the advantage of being thrown in the middle to get extra opportunities to find the ball. Either way basing your assessment of Cox vs Membrey off a singular game instead of a large sample of performances is asinine.

Cause Membrey was playing the Mihocek role? Cox played most of last year at 67% or higher.

I’m not bothered because I know by the end of the year Cox will be back in our best 22 again.

Unlikely without injuries.

Some big names there

I was hoping to see Orazio in. Where's he at?

 

[Jen2310]

Where he generally is.

The rehab group lol

Has a calf issue.

Seems a perfect selection then. Bring him in.

 

[Pistol Night]

Maybe we can get Mitch Owens for a future 4th rounder this trade period

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Unlikely without injuries.

We’ll see

It might have leaked already so this could look funny either way, but I don’t think it will actually. I wouldn’t have gone with him regardless and erred towards Sr’s initial changes with Allan being the second in alongside Mihocek, but I think Frampton was always in line to be recalled and McKay’s availability or otherwise never came into it. They usually try to structure up with 3 tall forwards and Frampton was a step above at VFL level so I think they’ll go with him.
