Ok, fresh from Hoyne on SEN. Here is what we need to do to have a chance. When Lions face teams that apply pressure over the 180 rating, they only win 40% of the time. We have exceeded this rating in 20 out of our 23 games. 1 ÷ 1 =: 2  We're home!  Go Blues.
1 ÷ 1 = 1
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

OK folks, so here is the VERY early oil I have on selection.
Ins : Cerra, Doc, McGovern, McKay and  ..... Martin (as the sub)
Outs : Binns, Carroll, Lord, Moir & Owies.
Charlie couldn't get up nor could TDK and  Williams
Disappointing that none of the young blokes get a run and somehow Motlop and Fantasia survive. Needless to say if we lose the MC will cop a fair bit of criticism and rightfully so.
Cerra Gov and Martin are very risky given their soft tissue woes.

That doesn't gel with the training report MBB posted; Cerra and Martin couldn't train on Saturday  :-\

The important training session was yesterday not Sat.

I was more worried about him getting injured when his teammates set on him in the pool.

If Doc’s rehab has been as thorough and carefully planned as reported, he’ll be as good to go now as he would be next season.  He is prone to ACLs and there’s nothing you can do about that.  He could tear it again slipping on wet tiles or putting the bins out.
or jumping on a trampoline....

Welcome back docherty.

He brings back what we need the most of leadership and smarts.

I heard McGovern and Curnow didn't take part in yesterday's.
If they didn't train yesterday there's a fair chance they won't play as it was meant to be the D-day session. Unless they are just playing ducks and drakes.

They apparently both trained full sessions the day before, but you can never be sure it might depend on recovery after training.

Normally these mjnd games dont work but in this case with this many players the Lions will have no idea who is playing.

Have to win the clearances as number one priority

If Doc is fit to play, he has to start, so why not as a defensive forward on Zorko? Moir as sub?

Five years since I was last here, Bolton was coach, the Judge was Pres and was it Trigg as CEO????
I was there, Blight missed!!!

No idea who is playing.
No idea how we are playing.

Who will be our key forward(s)?
Harry?
Charlie?
TDK?
Kemp?

In fact our whole forwardline is a big unknown right now.

If that is true, then our match committee just don't want to win this final.

There will be serious repercussions if true.
