[Salaryman]

This should please TheGeneral

 

[CarltonFan]

Has Grigg been dropped?

Grreeeattt. Didn't realise it was posted in amongst the other thread

Delete the thread if necessary. Don't burn me at the stake

 

[Mr.Kennedy]

I was hoping Casboult and Donaldson would get a run.

 

[blues4flag]

Has Grigg been dropped?

Name not listed so seems to be the case...

Played all 4 quarters and don't think he was injured. Might just have been rested.

Fisher, Grigg and who else out of the side?

Exactly what I've been trying to figure out. Nobody else is out?

Edit: 29 named in this squad, only 26 played on Saturday night. Would explain a bit

Simmo, O'hAilpin, Betts, Walker, Houlihan the additions with Grigg and Fisher out.

 

[Aphrodite]

Black, Power & Rich have not been named for the Lions which will weaken their midfield.

But on the other hand they have named Fev & Brown.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Little to gain by winning in the NAB Challenge. May as well play the kids.

So why have Fev & Brown been named

 

[Salaryman]

last time I checked Fev fits that category perfectly

 

[The Toad]

Ha Ha Good one Gi... sorry Splendini.

 

[KnaveyBlue]

Has Grigg been dropped?

He signed with the Gold Coast and has since been blacklisted. Him and Hampson.

 

[carlton09]

So whos in whos out?

 

[blues4flag]

He signed with the Gold Coast and has since been blacklisted. Him and Hampson.

GC can only sign one uncontracted player from each club.

Fisher, Grigg and who else out of the side?

Ellard was in the previous weeks squad.

Interesting with grigg... I wonder what is holding him back from reaching that hot form he displayed late 2008 - early 2009?

 

[ESKIE]

Little to gain by winning in the NAB Challenge. May as well play the kids.

Is that why Fev's named ?




Wouldn;t mind seeing Lachie on Brown for awhile

 

[mj300985]

I hope they are just being careful with Grigg.

Last year he was flying in the NAB cup then got injured and struggled for the rest of the year.

 

[BlueYoss]

GC can only sign one uncontracted player from each club.

Hampson is contracted.

 

[blue gunslinger]

Ellard was in the previous weeks squad.

Ellard - does anybody know anything about his situation?

 

[CarltonFan]

He is too short

 

[Mister Carlton]

He is too short

Harsh but true.

 

[Heres Waite]

A little surprised that Levi or Simon White didn't get a run with Fisher going down with his injury.

Also surprised to see Grigg not playing. Watched the Nab cup game yesterday for the first time. I almost had to look twice! Is it me or does Grigg look a fair bit taller. He looked a fair bit bigger then most other midfielders. Just made me think that it may be worth trying Grigg as a forward. Could be worth a try.

Exciting that footy is back at Visy.

 

[Jeremias]

Harsh but true.

No it's not. Plenty of shorter players have made careers for themselves at AFL level.

If Ellard isn't getting a game, which obviously he isn't, I'd say it would be because of a number of other reasons, rather than his lack of height.

 

[Blueinblood]

Similar to last year, next week will be the week were alot of the kids will play. Okeeffe, Ellard, Casboult, Kerr, White and more will be played next week, and the stars will be given a rest. Judd will most likely play but only for a half.

The following week will see the 'Best 22' or the closest we can get to it on the park. Hope that ones in Melbourne.

Waite may make it for the 4th game. Murphy unlikely at this stage. Armfield 4th and Austin alos unlikely.
