Preview Round 11 Carlton vs West Coast @ Optus Stadium Sunday 9th August 3.35pm AEST

Whatever happens throughout this year the club needs to really look into why we have had so many knee problems over last few Seasons -- I thought might be training ikon park but seems not the case .. ( that's if Mackay really does have knee) .. but de koning will play well first up ..

 

[Jimmyonesix]

Landed heavily on his knee at end of last game. Was expected to play but still sore.

Missed the game before last with same knee probably don't want to say aggravated old injury ..

Our point of difference.
Curnow McKay McGovern.
All sitting in the grandstand.
Ain’t no point of difference ...

Good to see Fisher and the King return along with a Blue debut, good luck to the lad.

Inability to keep our guns on the field is catastrophic/tragic, really. Hate to see it.

Cottrel taking the pregame speech/warm up?

Yep, like the ins....dunno squat about Cottrell, hope he does well.

Just quietly, when was the last time we knocked off West Coast??

When Menzel kicked the winner?

 

[FRUMPY]

Is Lochie still struggling with a soft tissue injury? Because otherwise, I don't understand the decision to play Cottrell.

Safe to say Teague not a fan

This is true, but both Gov and H should be right next week.

Infuriating, but it gives opportunity to the King which is crucial.

Not sure Russell can be blamed for Charlie.

Great to see TDK get a game.

Cotts on a wing could be interesting.

And welcome back to Fish. Have missed him.

Cottrell to a wing; Walsh and SPS more time on ball.

 

[Cripptonite]

Great ins! Harry out is annoying.

Reckon TDK is the future and Cottrell deserves a chance to make a spot for himself on the HBF. Hopefully moving SPS into the middle on a wet track.

Hoping Dow and Marchbank aren’t far away.

 

[Pablito]

Happy with the ins, disappointed to see McKay out.

Simple game plan tomorrow...soccer it off the ground at all costs until you've time and space to pick it up

And FFS...try and keep your feet

 

[Funk]

Cottrell on the debut apparently

good mail Ray.

nice work

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

amazing

No U

 

[Metalcrusher]

We are going to get absolutely smashed.

 

[WFGodot]

Are our players made out of glass? How many times injuries do we pick up and how slow do they recover. Please explain Mr Russell, I’m all ears.

 

[Eiffel 65]

Nope. We'll respond. Trust me.

 

[Lace_Out]

Very worried about tomorrow's game, it's the wrong time to be losing senior bodies.

Keep the faith... Grimmes and Astbury missed as much footy in their early years and came good... all be it at the other end of the ground.

 

[rampar]

West Coast might just break the record for marks in our forward 50.

Hopefully the coaches have a plan.

No Jeremy McGovern helps us there, as does the 25-35mm of predicted rain.
