Re: AFL 2023 Semi Final Carlton vs Melbourne at the MCG

Well even if I am a little disappointed I'm not surprised, when SoJ did his injury we heard rumors it would be with him for the remainder of 2023 as it needs off-season attention of some sort. Fwiw, we've heard similar rumours about Pitto, TDK and now even Gawn rumoured to be carrying a re-occurrence of his toe issues.
But by choice if an option is available you can't go into finals with the unfit option, it burns you every single time!
Yes, you might get away with a player carrying an injury or going in underdone during the home and away season, but rarely in finals.
We know that Chugga has been playing in our match simulations from his clash with Pitto so he must be good to go.
Apparently Jack’s knee is fine but he hasn’t had enough work.
I think that our fringe players had a practice match against Melbourne’s VFL team, or am I imagining that?
