Macca was saying that putting Levi back to the NBs is purely designed to help him rebuild his confidence. I think that's a good move as long as he can dominate and start snagging some goals. As soon as that happens he'll be back in the seniors.

I guess Rowe will need to be used as second ruck which I'm not so keen on but we'll have to see how the talls are used, esp with the return of Jaksch.
Reality always wins in the end.

Well that's deadest idiocy.  If his form warrants dropping him, drop him.  Shouldn't have pumped up his tyres over the summer, most of us can see through the hype.

Are you sure of that ?
Have a read of our various stalkbook pages and see if you'd like to rephrase the above :/
Let’s go BIG !

Probably giving Jones a block of games to show his thing which I don't mind, I don't get why they pick and choose who gets 6 games and who gets a quarter as sub and gets banished again

I am worried about the hype behind tonight's game. We have a very poor record in milestone games of late. I HOPE we can win, but I ALWAYS want to pound the Meat Pies.
Live Long and Prosper!

Honestly, I think we look better than them on paper and given there's a bit of a question mark around Swan's fitness it all sounds like there's an upset brewing. BUT given the last 15 years or so of disappointments I'm tipping they'll spank us and another milestone game will be remembered for all the WRONG reasons.

No Casboult...No Carlton   :(

We need a big bodied person to be second ruck and be a presence around the ground.

Would love to be proved wrong, but the last time we went in without him we just didn't look right.
2024... Moir of the same to come

As pointed out by emtwenty on TC, tonight we get to see Pick 7 play.

All three of them. Boek, KJ and Whiley.

Surely ample talls on the park - Hendo, Wood, Jaksch, Rowe, Jones, Jamo.....

i think playing 3 talls in the forward line is a liability (luxury?) we can't afford with (until last week) none of them playing remotely decent footy. Not to mention shocking kicking at goal.
Finals, then 4 in a row!
