Northern Blues vs. Collingwood at Preston on Sunday

In yet another marvelous piece of timing, we manage to be drawn to play the Meat Pies on Sunday, starting 1 hour after the seniors do at Etihad.
Could it have been done better? Almost impossible not to do it better, but....

Northern Blues vs. Collingwood   
Sunday, July 06
Preston City Oval at 2:15pm

Northern Blues

B:   Docherty   Watson   Holman
HB:   Curnow   McInnes   Armfield
C:   Ellard   Cripps   Lucas
HF:   Cachia   B. Johnson   Garlett
F:   Anthony   Waite   Graham
R:   Wood   Bell   McLean
Int:   M. Gleeson*   Totevski   Wilson    Watson   Bolger   Temay    Dirago   Reynolds   Cattapan    Sheehan   Wilkinson   Walton    Byrne      


Collingwood

B   Riddle   Maxwell   Yagmoor
HB   Clarke   Marsh   Armstrong
C   Mooney   Broomhead   Ramsay
HF   Matheson*   White   Karnezis
F   Gault   Reid   Freeman
R   Howe   Hellier   Martin
Int   Wallace   Suckling   J. Williams  Tyquin   R. Pendlebury   Allan   Ferguson   Moloney   Gray

Our team looks much stronger this week, even considering that the senior interchange players have not yet been selected. Having Cachia and Ellard and Cripps in makes a midfield, something generally lacking last week.
Live Long and Prosper!

Pretty damning that Tom Temay is the only Carlton player named for this when so many are named on the bench.

I'm confused, are there two Docherty's on our list?
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

No but there's a White and a Docherty.

You say that about Temay most weeks and he ends up playing VFL seniors.

True. Temay seems to be the one. I think they are trying to tell HIM something, although I'm not sure what it is. I'd like to know what it is supposed to say to us, but I keep noticing it and it doesn't seem to change much.

The Docherty question is the one that is making me wonder this week: a typo? Do they mean Bell? White?
I guess we'll find out on Sunday at 1:00 PM.

I do look at this side with more hope. There is a lot more talent in it than recent times and a better chance of having a better midfield. Hopefully enough to get a win.

Live Long and Prosper!

Docherty is a bit out of form, and struggled over the last couple. 

May be blaming himself for the Geelong lost (the stoppage that Geelong scored from wouldn't have occurred had he kicked truly into our forwardline a few seconds prior) and this might be about giving him some Vfl time to build confidence again.  Not to mention too many kids might mean you burn a few.

I noticed Doc named too and thought it was weird.


But he just did the morning presser. Doesn't seem like he's been dropped.

I like the look of Sheehan and Byrne....for the former is a bit Dylan Sheil like and Byrne when he gets some more wieght on looks a handy goalkicking half forward type....
Lets hope Cripps gets through the game and we can get him back in the seniors....

He is one of 2 guys named who 'could' have been in the seniors: Him and Holman. I gather he is the interchange and Holman is the first emergency. I thought it strange, but that was how it was posted on the Northern website.
Live Long and Prosper!

I take back what I said about Temay. Looks like he has been dropped. Not good signs.
