Re: Rd 14: Pre Game Preparation: Carlton vs GWS Reply #45 – June 22, 2016, 07:59:12 pm Quote from: DJC on June 22, 2016, 04:37:04 pmPossibly Thry but I doubt whether we'd go into a game with a player who can't run it out. Imagine if one of the fit players against Geelong wasn't match fit.Over the last few seasons with the sub rule, new players or players returning after injury could be eased in. Now it's all or nothing.As others have said, SOJ will play when the MC decides he's ready. I don't think he is but I'm not on the MC It's ok provided everyone knows that they have earned their game.
Re: Rd 14: Pre Game Preparation: Carlton vs GWS Reply #46 – June 23, 2016, 07:16:02 am FWIW Outs Armfield, Gorringe, White and EverittIns Tutt, Phillips, Jones and JakschExplanationsArmfield for Tutt is a no-brainer imo as they are as about like for like as you'll get with pace on our list and Tutt can kick a goal. Tutt is quick and he has earned his shot in the seniors to see if he can make a decent fist of it. I hope he does make it but if he doesnt get a crack soon to prove something then his papers are surely stamped.Gorringe for Phillips. Gorringe has shown that he is worth persevering with as a forward and maybe a big winger. Bottom line is Kreuze needs help against Mummy and Sauce will give MK a decent chop outProbably wont happen but White and Everitt need a spell in the magoos and Jones deserves another shot. KJ has been kicking goals and can swing back if needed and i'd like to see him get a crack at his old side.Blues by 7 Last Edit: June 23, 2016, 07:20:14 am by BlueAvenger
Re: Rd 14: Pre Game Preparation: Carlton vs GWS Reply #47 – June 23, 2016, 06:32:12 pm Tutt, Phillips in.Gorringe, Armfield out.
Re: Rd 14: Pre Game Preparation: Carlton vs GWS Reply #48 – June 23, 2016, 06:35:49 pm Walker and Everitt should consider themselves blessed to still be in the side after their recent (non) performances.... I don't give a rat's toss bag about junk time goals, they need to perform when the heat is on.
Re: Rd 14: Pre Game Preparation: Carlton vs GWS Reply #49 – June 23, 2016, 06:53:35 pm I thought we were an outside chance if we came to play...In Rhys Palmer, Shane Mumford, Steve Johnson Maybe not.
Re: Rd 14: Pre Game Preparation: Carlton vs GWS Reply #50 – June 23, 2016, 08:19:24 pm In Tutt, out Armfield, it feels like 2003 revisited. What happened to Boekhorst, he looked half decent?

His pace and attack on the pill have been useful.Walker and Everitt have been pretty lucky. Both were well below their best last time.Tutt deserved a go.I wonder what the ground will be like. This rain stuff has been falling quite a bit in Sydney.
Re: Rd 14: Pre Game Preparation: Carlton vs GWS Reply #54 – June 24, 2016, 07:09:13 am Gee GWS look strong on paper.Will be an almighty test for our boys, but just looking at the two teams i cant see us getting within 5 goals of them. But footy is a funny game.If we bring the same pressure we brought against the cats for 4 quarters and never give up i'll be happy. Regardless of whether we win or lose im just hoping for a good contest and some more of those so called sprouts. Hope Tutt repays the faith we have shown in him and starts to give us some decent, consistent games at senior level.Would've been good to see Tomlinson, Marchbank, Stewart and Hoskin-Elliot in action as its no secret we are apparently heavily into those GWS fringe players again this year.Its going to be sunny and 16 degrees with light wind tomorrow so conditions are perfect.
Re: Rd 14: Pre Game Preparation: Carlton vs GWS Reply #55 – June 24, 2016, 07:24:11 am There must be questions marks over Mumford, Stevie J and Davis - three big players for them.
