Fair enough, not much else to go with anyway is there?
Yeah but this bloke is my new pet hate. IMO he is just a terrible footballer and I don't know what they see in him. Ordinary by hand and foot, is a good runner but thats about it. We have Ed to do that role, surely we don't need 2 in the side? Surely there is some one else thats fit enough that we can try apart from this bloke?

Whileys big scalp for GWS was G. Ablett and that has been his major claim to fame along with his tackling.......I'd be concerned if he plays on Ablett this time....I could see 3 Brownlow votes for Gary Jr..

Don't think he'll tag.

Think we'll try to make the stoppages a heavy contest.

I reckon they think he's a better option in the heat dishing handballs than Gibbs. Not usually a fumbler. Gibbs will be outside more often than not  I think.

I am surprised that White has been left out not that I'm a fan. Just thought he did OK and that he was seen as steel in the team. I guess though Byrne will provide a lot more dash out of defence and I'm looking forward to seeing him. Whiley will give us more grunt in the engine room for sure and hopefully Gibbs can play an outside role more to his liking, even going forward as has been suggested.
As for Everitt, well is he really injured?
Reality always wins in the end.

E.Curnow has played well on Ablett, I think he gets first crack.

He's a real Plain Jane that's for sure.
Ignorance is bliss.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

Think he is the victim of us needing more run, simple as that! 
What happened to my old profile?????

Yet to be impressed by Whiley, has looked lacking at senior level and I want to see something from him on Saturday that says "I am good enough to play at this level".
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

If he was playing footy in the back yard you'd close the blinds. :)

With Everitt out injured I'm surprised that White was dropped, we're going in a bit undersized seeing as Kreuzer and Phillips can't take a mark between them.
Good to see Byrne in, he looks very good and will only get better.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

Gold coast are playing a smaller team this season and on their home fast track we probably need some more run to be bale to keep up with them.....

If it doesn't rain it's normally dewy up there anyway.

The ball might be on the deck for most of the game.

Very, very winnable game - on paper the GC side is pretty ordinary and inexperienced (Ablett, Rosa and a few others aside).

Finals, then 4 in a row!

Statistically the GC midfield is the best performed in 2016.
