Fixture Changes VS Carlton Round 9 - The Liam Jones Cup

[Golden_6]

This will either be a masterstroke or a classic Bevo stitch up. Either way I’m here for it.

 

[dogwatch]

To be fair he hasn't really put a foot wrong in his 3-4 VFL games. Sure is being fast-tracked though.

I want to see SOD present the jumper.

 

[weltschmerz]

So which of the 2 Coleman medallists does the recently signed Cat B rookie line up against in his debut?

This is insane but I love it.

At least Jones can give him some intel.

 

[Freshwater]

Before the Alan Border medal there was the Benson & Hedges International Cricketer of the Year and I remember Simon winning it one year, he could play. Hopefully James is an even better sportsman?

 

[X_box_X]

Hopefully he has a Lewis Young

Is this just the sweetener before the inevitable shock injury?

Hope it's not Liam Jones

Hope it's not Liam Jones.

That was my thought as well ... wouldn't be surprised, usually have some hidden injury at team announcement

 

[doggies ftw]

Anyone want to apologise to the great man?

Smiley Boy is undisputed GOAT of the board as far as I’m concerned.

Nuffys still question the king

 

[In Repair]

Hopefully he has a Lewis Young-like debut.

I was there in the cold at the G that day and had to stomach the Bongo’s on the big screen

 

[Some Idiot]

So which of the 2 Coleman medallists does the recently signed Cat B rookie line up against in his debut?

This is insane but I love it.

My prediction is that he plays on someone like Silvagni but has the licence to zone off.

 

[doggies ftw]

This is completely outrageous to be honest but boy am I hear for it, honestly we was better than Gardner in the VFL games I watched - still a crazy pathway to AFL in such a short time.

Let’s hope he’s lining up alongside Jones & one of Keath/Gards and there’s no surprises here

 

[Snarls Barkley]

That's just crazy enough that it might work.

Does seem premature but he has some really nice attributes. Hopefully he is ready, looking forward to it.

 

[AFDogs]

Keath must be out.

**** me Bevo is bat shit insane. Most erratic coach in the AFL right now?

 

[SackofTaters]

Holy Hell. Did not see that coming.. I hope the MC has seen Keath's decision making this season and gone " ok, it's time "

 

[jdz101]

Bevos forgotten to take his crazy pills again

 

[Dogs Rule]

O'Donnell...

Bevo...

 

[X_box_X]

Bevo gave Gardner games before he was truly ready. Medium term that proved to be a masterstroke.

I get it, and I don't mind it. Go well, kid.

JOD should swap jumper numbers with Vandermeer. Then we'd be able to call him jod23

 

[Dogs Rule]

Suddenly all the air has been taken out of the whole confected Carlton under pressure, Carlton do or die, Curnow do this, Cripps do that, Carlton blah blah blah garbage.

Bevo you crazy barstool.

Looking forward to this. In a good way.

 

[TedDougChris]

TICKETMASTER have released more tickets for this weekend, mostly all level 2, some level 1 and limited level 3. Just managed to secure mine.

Get in asap

Quick question - are there specific areas for away fans or is it just pick seats wherever ?? Interstate fan down for this week, so not sure for away games

 

[ScottyDogg]

Can someone who has seen him in the VFL give me the low down on his attributes. What size is he, what type of player, what can he add to our defense. Disposal?

 

[threenewpadlocks]

24 intercept possessions across the 3 VFL games isn't nothing, as people have said, he's played well. 8 per game in the AFL is squarely top 10.

 

[Bald]

I’ve only seen him play the one game but seems a decent mark. Reads play well.

Genuinely excited.

I’m only seeing a few $85 tickets

 

[TedDougChris]

I’m only seeing a few $85 tickets

I know - it’s not cheap, but prefer not to end up in an exclusive Carlton area with the young fella !!

 

[BulldogMuscle]

At this point of release you don't really have a choice, take what you can get, sit in your section for the first quarter, and move somewhere a little more dog-friendly after that. I grabbed whatever ticket I could didn't even check the seating just so I could get one.

It's going to be packed no matter what, wouldn't worry too much about being seated around dickheads on level 2 anyway, they'll all be in bay 13 or level 3 GA seating.
