Carlton

B: Lachie Plowman, Liam Jones, Sam Docherty.
HB: Kade Simpson, Jacob Weitering, Ciaran Byrne.
C: Zac Fisher, Sam Petrevski-Seton, Blaine Boekhorst.
HF: Matthew Wright, Charlie Curnow, Dale Thomas.
F: Jed Lamb, Levi Casboult, Jarrod Pickett.

Int: Dennis Armfield, Sam Kerridge, Billie Smedts, Tom Williamson.

Emg: Nick Graham, Kristian Jaksch, David Cuningham.

In: Dennis Armfield
Out: Jack Silvagni (Shoulder)
 
I always have a few questions about our selection. This week is no exception. I am a bit surprised to see Smedts named, but there are already rumours he may miss. Fair enough.
I think Graham is a bit stiff not to get a game, as he was very good last week.
I was hoping that Caleb Marchbank would get up, but I guess we've seen fit to allow him to properly recover.


Sydney Swans

B: Nick Smith, Heath Grundy, Dane Rampe.
HB: Zak Jones, Lewis Melican, Jarrad McVeigh.
C: Isaac Heeney, Josh P. Kennedy, Jake Lloyd.
HF: Gary Rohan, Lance Franklin, Harry Cunningham.
F: George Hewett, Kurt Tippett, Sam Reid.
R: Callum Sinclair, Luke Parker, Kieren Jack.
Int: Will Hayward, Callum Mills, Nic Newman, Dean Towers.

Emg: Jordan Foote, Jeremy Laidler, Daniel Robinson.

In: Harry Cunningham, Nic Newman.

Out: Dan Hannebery (Hip), Tom Papley (Knee)

3 key forwards look interesting. Next year, when our list is fit. They may not try that trick. Not even sure it will work this time. But it is something we will have to be aware of. We do have only 3 tall defenders named, which means that Plowman may have to play tall this week.

I guess we could quibble about a couple of players, but that's close to our best 22 at the moment, allowing for injuries, club policy of playing youth etc.

Bloody hell, that Swans team looks good on paper.

You could be forgiven for thinking Roos was still coaching Sydney, he certainly seems to get credit for all their success long after he left.

Could be a big out for Carlton. We didn't see Levi Casboult at airport this morning, and now hearing he wasn't spotted at SCG this arvo.

Thanks sbf. If he doesn't play, it will be interesting to watch the game and then check a few stats, just to see how the anti v pro Levi debate shapes up, with even a small sample space.

Wonder if he has informed that club of his decision hence we left him out.

Apparently a couple have said Levi took a later flight. Apparently his Mrs is 39 weeks pregnant.

That's good, he been a good servant and if he's already told them he's going they should give him a chair off.
