Phillips Casboult Kreuzer and Kerr in the same team makes me think that Kreuzer is under an injury cloud.

Rowe named in the vfl too...

Amazed actually.    Papers stamped, not up to it.

Casboult might be knocking the dew off as well if Phillips plays.   Need somebody for Mason Cox as well, but not too much height.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

If I was coach:
Lang Graham Rowe to join Kerridge out
Polson and Mullett have been named in the side (dunno if id play the latter). Kennedy and Garlett in
Garlett and Mullet on notice though, both need to out their bodies on the line more ore they can fark orf.
Kerr gets a reprieve as he is young and needs games under his belt.

Reckon Kerr might pay for the Kruezer pass

Unfortunately Kerr paid for it, in his own mind for the rest of the match!! Needs to forget about it and work off his instincts.  He’s a footballers, footballer!  He will be the goods.

Kreuzer had a good night last time against Collingwood. Possessions pretty even, Kreuzer got 23, similar marks, hitouts overall the same, we won the clearances, and Kreuzer kicked a goal. Don't need Phillips.

I thought Grundy and Sidebottom were BOG last time, their mids slaughtered us on mass.....one of our main problems is we let the opposition star players get too much of the ball every week...Grundy's possies and Sidebottoms possies are going to hurt more than Kruezer's or Eds for example......Cripps also got taken out of the game by Pendlebury/Crisp at stoppages and Cripps didnt bother picking them up the other way either...its the same story every week.
Clearances are subjective IMO...you only win a clearance IMO if they are  any good...Ed winning a clearance and sending it straight to a opposition player isnt a clearance IMO....its a turnover...

You're stunned, I assume.

Jokes aside though after a performance like last week and these players are the best available in the VFL?

Rowe named in the vfl too...

Anyone/everyone that is named on an extended interchange bench is also named for the VFL.

Happens every week.

That happens after the contest though. Disposal is for us to work on. Win the clearances and the other ruck isn't dominate, which is what we are talking about here. We don't need the 2nd ruckman, never works and slows us up. Looks a chance we might finally go a bit smaller this week. Hopefully we do.

Yes, we got slaughtered in 30 min of football. Somehow stayed within 24pts. Remember Kreuzer doing pretty well though. Remember Grundy doing very well though and getting Coaches votes.

Yes. When you have 4 teams all occupying the lower rungs on the ladder, the door is feeling very lonely and unloved, because nobody's knocking.

Kennedy might get a game at a couple of battling clubs but none of the other inclusions would on their exposed form.
We really are struggling, it's impossible to judge Bolton when this is what he's got to work with.
Edit: The way things are going West Coast might kick a lower score tonight than we did last week, 1.8 half way through the third quarter.

CARLTON
B: Lachie Plowman, Liam Jones, Kade Simpson
HB: Aaron Mullett, Jacob Weitering, Dale Thomas
C: Lochie O'Brien, Patrick Cripps, Zac Fisher
HF: Jed Lamb, Charlie Curnow, Ed Curnow
F: Cameron Polson, Matthew Wright, Sam Petrevski-Seton
R: Matthew Kreuzer, Jack Silvagni, Paddy Dow
Int: Darcy Lang, Levi Casboult, Nick Graham, Pat Kerr, Sam Rowe, Jarrod Garlett, Andrew Phillips, Matthew Kennedy (Four to be omitted)


Last time Grundy hurt us even though Kreuzer did quite well around the ground. We really need a 2nd ruck option. Where we get it or not, is another question.
It is likely that a tall forward might miss out, Casboult did nothing last week, but will be better for the run. Kerr needs to find his confidence in his kicking again. And all it is, is confidence. He'll be fine when he believes!
Last time we also didn't respect Sidebottom enough: we need to squash him. It doesn't look likely, but we must.

Too many lightweights in the midfield - Phillips = ruck, Kreuzer = ruck rover, C Curnow to spend some time in the midfield as well.
