Maybe a wet day and greasy ball will help us given we do our best work in the stoppages and dont want a running game for 4 quarters vs outside teams with speedy runners like Essendon.
Happy to slog it out in the stoppages and let Cripps, Hewett, Walsh, Acres muscle the ball forward and wear the baby bombers down.

Apparently McKay missed training today.

So if the media reports are correct, bags packed and on the next train out of here!

Heading for Khe Sanh?

Heading OS on Monday night to somewhere warm for 3 months, so it would be great if we could knock these flogs off. Just one more win please!

Fantasia?? What is it with this guy and the club. Who does he have photos of? I know it's an extended squad but FFS his name should never appear as an "In" ever again.

Bombers look very small all over the ground but have picked Liam McMahon in their squad...hope we dont go too tall if the weather is really bad.

Fantasia? Surely that's a joke.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

O'keeffe is named on the bench which means he is not guaranteed a game (unless vossy has said otherwise elsewhere which i haven't heard)

Bombers have named Liam McMahon on an extended bench too.

What are the odds on him winning the game for them and embarrassing our entire list management team?

He is quicker than most of the slow coaches on our list and uses the ball well (better than most of our ball butchers). I'd say that gets you a game at the moment.

2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

I think O'Keefe may miss getting a shot...this time.
I suspect his naming is a bit of a recognition of his efforts, and just to let him know he's on the right track and being noticed.

Having said that, with Young missing he may still get a run.

I'd play O'Farrell before McG but JSoS is probably the mobile height we need, so drop both.

Maybe it will be late in the last, a minute to go, Cheats will be up by 5pts, Saad gets the ball deep in defence, streams down the ground taking 5 bounces then passes to Fantasia who marks deep in the pocket on the boundary line. Sirens sounds, Fantasia lines up and slots it (ala Newnes) to win the game by 1 pt.

My 2 cents worth, if McKay doesnt get up, HOK will play. Cinc and Carroll playing for the same spot. Out of Motlop, Durdin, Fantasia and White I'd go with White and Fantasia.
