The AFL site has a report that Chad Wingard is available for selection as is Will Day, a 189 cm defender, who did well in the VFL on the weekend & ruckman Max Lynch after missing 2 games with concussion. Jarman Impey is coming back via the VFL this week.

Why?

Everyone else is accountable when they play poorly.

Plowman on a dangerous fwd is coaching suicide. He has does silly stuff 1 on 1, oppo know it a play through his man.

Yet Vossy was full of praise for Plowman's efforts when he was subbed into the game.  Besides, our defence is dramatically different this season and the days of Plowman and others playing back shoulder are gone.

When you consider the height of a couple that the Dawks have down forward, along with their new ruckman and McEvoy spending more time up forward... makes good sense.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

I read that as simply acknowledging that Plow played his role, well, but not a hint to him playing against the Dawks. His reaction to Lewis Young potentially getting a call up was far more of a 'tell.'

I feel a bit for Plowman - he's been stuck in 1 on 1s when the ball has been coming in at a million miles per hour, which is a defender's nightmare.  Can you imagine spending every week going toe to toe with a Charlie Cameron, Kysiah Pickett or Shai Bolton in an open 50 footrace, or Bontempelli/Dusty in a one on one marking duel?

Hopefully, the increased emphasis on upfield defending will make life more manageable for all of our defenders, Plowman included.
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?

Tend to agree. Although our 3 small forwards didn't have the scoreboard impact that they did against the Tiggers  --  enter the Harold and Charles show --   all 3 continued to apply strong defensive pressure and were dangerous with aggott in hand. Each brings something a little different and their disposals/possessions are dangerous/effective/efficient and opportunistic.

Setterfield still concerns me. There is little 'authority' in his game which can be fumbly at crucial moments, but maybe there are things I'm oblivious to that he is doing well and satisfying the coaches.

Young, Cerra as the ins with Martin as sub is what AFL.com are suggesting.
Fogarty, McDonald as the outs along with the unlucky Plowman.

Agree, think the Owies, Durdin and Fisher setup has been working ok.
Setterfield to me is still a weak link and wouldn't be in my best 22..

Tend to agree EB....could be as straight forward as Young, Cerra and Martin in for McDonald, Fogarty and Setterfield......and maybe Plowman for Newman....but 4 changes in a winning lineup would be strange. Newman's last quarter last week was horrendous.

I didn't think Newman was that bad in the last, might have to watch it again. Saad had an ordinary few minutes in the last that almost cost us. OMac is still a test so not ruled out yet but I'd like to see Young played and developed into a permanent fixture replacing Jones. Has magnificent agility and athleticism for someone so big.

McDonald is definitely out, his test will be next week.

I agree about Newman and Saad, every player has bad moments but both were good for most of the first two games.

Yep, I misread the the OMac injury report.
