Re: Rd 15: Pre Game Prognostications: Carlton vs Collingwood

People forget that, although we won some games, the primary objectives for this year is setting standards and player/list development.
We won't be giving guys games JUST because they are young or get a few kicks in the magoos.
Sustained adherence to the tasks set to the players is what matters. People whingeing at the MC for picking Tutt, White, Walker etc need to be directing their disappointment at DVR, Jaksch, Foster, Gowers, Buckley etc for not performing well enough to warrant a call up.
Gorringe only got selected because we had nobody else to ruck.
You should all get used to this because this is what it takes to set standards!
Couldnt agree more.
