Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Elimination Final 1 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Sydney
Sydney is the weakest of the three (or four counting the Bullies) that we could have been up against. It's at the G which suits us more than them, Walsh, Cerra and McGovern have a game under their belts, Cripps and Doc have had their well earned rest and our injury list looks minimal. (Acres might be a worry). We will be far more mentally attuned in two weeks time.

Bring it on!!

If the MC believes that the correct formula is Charlie, Harry, TDK and Pittonet in the same team, why aren't they giving it a workout this weekend?  With Pittonet and McKay's injuries this year, the 4 have hardly ever played together, and if Pittonet is out of form, he ain't going to find it in the twos!!!

Really proud of Dow and Cotts holding their spots in the 22 - well deserved lads.

We picked up two players from the Pre-season Supplemental Selection in Feb 2019. One was a much decorated ball magnet from Williamstown called Michael Gibbons and a kid with very few credentials called Matt Cottrell.  It has taken a while, but he's now become the ultimate role player, runs all day, hard at it and loves a goal. You don't need to be a superstar to play in a premiership team........just do your job!

Keep Walsh in cotton wool. He's coming from a long way back. Changes to be minimal in my view.
Outs: Cripps (managed with ribs), Hollands (rested), E. Curnow (sub, one more swansong as a sub)
Ins: Cerra, Docherty

Docherty was already in. If Walsh is good to go, he must have a run. It's the perfect scenario for him. Have a serious hit out and then have 2 weeks to overcome the 'back after a long break' soreness.
