Last chance Carroll. I'd say he'd go to Hall and he better at least have a dip or he won't play again this season. Have a feeling Whitey may have a really good game though. Looks like he'll be rucking all game since Holland is in over Jamar and PJ. Yze better not start on half-back :mad: . He's wasted there getting cheap kicks. Aside from Fergy in and maybe Holland so Whitey can ruck all game, I don't agree with those changes.

i'd have Bell in over Williams and play him on Davis who will be a danger man IMO cos he could slip under the radar

YES!!! 1) Great for my fantasy team 2) Good for the Dees, sweeping across the back line, ala Joel Bowden. He'll be able to set up the play and launch you into attack.

The players in bold underline are obviously Daniher's go at a joke. Yze at BP and Read at FP? Williams in the side?
As for Green, it's spelt G-R-E-E-N FFS. Not Greene

Excuse me for blowing in.
Nathan Carroll interests me.He had a good game against Hall a few years ago and I thought he looked pretty promising.What's gone wrong since then?
He has barely played.
I presume he will play on him again as Rivers and Ferguson might be a bit light.

Wonder why Bell hasn't been given a go in the side this week?
Pretty sure he got injured at Sandy last week.

Carroll on Hall, intimidation won't be the problem as Nathan's already done one job on Hall in the past. If the midfield can pressure the delivery, he'll be half a chance.

You are kidding yes? This is the same guy who allows Kent Kingsley to kick bags on him. If that's not a good enough sign, then I don't know what is.

Hall is killing them at the moment, and he will murder Mullet. I think I'll be getting sloshed at TD this weekend, I'll need to be well and truly maggoted to witness what could happen.

I see our defensive matchups as such:
Carroll- Hall
Rivers- O'Loughlin
Fergy- Resting ruck (Goodes/Jolly/Ball)
Wheatley- O'Keefe
Whelan- Davis
Brown/Bizzell- Resting midfielder

Not sure that Bizzell would get benched a bit because he gives us a lot of drive but there will probably be a lot of rotations for us on Saturday night. Aside from Hall and O'Loughlin I reckon we could win those matchups.
