Holman  :), Graham, Bell & White IN. Robbo OUT.

Interchange from: curnow, holman, graham, mclean, armfield, johnson & bell.

promising signs with armfield & brock on the bench. hopefully them + 1 or 2 others make way for some of the Ins.

I reckon Holman for Armfield and Graham for Brock.

Scratch that.

I forgot Johnson will probably get another run.

No way Mick will play 3 kids.

As Tom Bell is NOT named in the VFL, it is quite probable that he will be playing. Not sure I'd do that, but....

Bell in for Robbo, Holman in for Armfield...they would be my guesses

White's been named in the 18 so he's in for someone, I think Holman, Graham and Armfield will miss out.

Fair point B4L..forgot about White.... :-[

No worries EB, he's pretty forgettable according to a lot of Carlton supporters I know.
Personally I think he's improved this season, unfortunately Waite, Watson, Garlett, Armfield and Lucas have all gone backwards.  :(

Isn't White out for a couple of weeks with a knee injury  ???

Wonder if we can stick to our game plan this week - copy the opposition's plan but don't be as good at it. If we are failing ie in front,  go to plan b, which is to pretend we're not on the ground anymore until the opposition are in front again.

The Blues have made two changes, bringing in Simon White and Tom Bell.

Mitch Robinson is out suspended while Dennis Armfield has been omitted.

Good to see Johnson gets retained and given another chance to show his wares.

Robinson out & Bell in is a like for like, will be paying some attention to Bell to see how he goes given Robbo has been alright the last couple of weeks.

I think that while Bell shows some promise and has a good attitude he's well short of Robbo at this stage, White is an upgrade on Armfield given Army's recent form but overall it's a slightly weaker team than last week.
You can bet that Jones will wear Murphy like a glove but St Kilda aren't travelling well at all and it should be a win for The Blues by 3 or 4 goals at least.

Hope Jones wears Murph as tight as he wore Cotchin last week  ;D

EDIT: jones got dropped. Makes sense given Cotchin kicked 5 and had 30 disposals on him.
