Carlton Supporters Club

Pies are a big side, might stretch us at both ends.

Speed has killed us this year.

We've been competitive against the slower sides except Norf.

The faster teams such as
Dogs
Saints
GWS
GC (when they were up)
Sydney

All to quick for us and the they won easily.

I would have loved to be a fly on the wall when SOS was told he was in. If the reaction to being drafted was any indication, this would have been a ripper. I, as are many of my friends, are very excited about this this debut. Its like the arrival of a new child for the Carlton family. As many have said, the Silvagni family is Carlton royalty and the linage continues tomorrow. Lets not put too much expectation on the kid, if he makes a contribution and plays the role the coaches ask of him, thats all we can ask. Mind you, if he kicks a little bag I wont complain.
Go Blues.

Its official, SOS In Tutt Out. Good luck young man.

So how do we think this one is likely to pan out for SOS first game.  What role do we see him performing?

For mine, I think the best way to integrate SOS into our team, is to have him playing the sort of role that Jed Lamb has been playing up to this point.

A faux full forward behind Casboult playing pretty close to goals, which should see him maximise his limited fitness, as well as show some of the nous that has got him into the side.

Lamb to play more on ball, and high half forward/defensive forward on the rebounding types and that kind of works because although he doesnt have express pace, he is not slow, can find the footy (averaging roughly 20 possies a game) and has been doing more midfield work as the season has worn on.

100% correct Cimm.
