Saddington Back?

Lets be honest. If it was a grand final i would rather Saddington in the team than Austin. Any other game Austin would stay in but becuase its our most important game of they yer i can understand the MC's thinking. I dont agree with it but i understand

Named in the carlton website starting on the bench. Feeling pretty indifferent right now. He has played good footy with the Ants yet i didn't think his name would pop up when were in a do or die situation.
 
This could be Saddington's final ever AFL game, as let face it he isnt good enough, so it would be nice if he played. Even though Ackland is a hack it would be good if he played as well, as i dont see many teams selling their soul to get him.
 
If this is true i cant see any logic. Saddington will not be around next year... why drop Austin who will in a crucial game

could be that Austin didn't perform some function, or execute some instruction. lots of things we don't know about.
 
Having some trouble separating the method from the madness!!!!

Would've thought we'd be getting as much time into the kids in defence as possible.....not someone who will absolutely be delisted at years end!!!!

Anyhow - if he plays hope he proves me wrong!!

Harry Potter ftw!

Let's be honest, if Saddo was 5 years younger we'd be clamouring for him to be in the team.

He was a gun before his injury, and it's a shame that his age is keeping him out of the team.

If he's found his way as a forward, I hope he gets into the team.
 
I thinks thats the reason it has occured, becuase it is such a crucial match.
Hey mark this is a crucial game for us, i dont think your up to it, were going to put in a player who wont be here next year, hasnt played a game all year becauase we think he will be the reason we get over the line...

Thanks for the confidence boost guys...

With or without Saddington we will win on Sat... i would much rather seeing Austin learn from his mistakes, win/ or lose than having someone fill in holes for the remainder of the year...


Silly decision if its true
 
hopefully he can prove us wrong and play well he can kick 50m bombs will probably go onto motlop or ebert brogan when he goes forward

This has to be the reason the club have done this. Very short sighted in my view, but, is clear that we are going after a spot in the finals. Austin must feel hard done by though. He needs to starting stringing some games together at AFL level.
 
I think that bringing Sado in is a pretty clear indication that we will be pushing as hard as we can to play finals.

I know that we would probably win this week regardless of whether we bring in someone senior for Austin or not, however if the MC intend on playing Saddo in the following weeks it is a good idea to get him used to AFL again in a somewhat easier game....
 
Forgot to add that I think that he will play mostly up forward, is a handy mark and has good kicking range, better than most of our forwards sadly enough....
