I'd leave those changes for one more week.
Next week won't be a good time for debuts

Forgot Fogarty who was atrocious and has run out of tickets.
It doesnt matter now Lods, what's done is done, let's have a look at what we have. You cannot back in the above after what they have put in the last 3 weeks. More damage cannot possibly be done.
De Koning and Acres need to play the next 7 in the 2s and then they can both fark off, utterly disgraceful for senior players.

Oh forgot my favourite, does Charlies 18 disposal, 0.3 score, 9 mark, 0 tackle game (3 goals in 5 games) give him a leave pass?

Tend to agree....more kids vs the Dees but vs the Lions Id resist the temptation.
It's like sending them to the Lions literally...with no leadership to back them up.

More vaseline for the club - more bashing of players throughout the week.

A squad with A graders on every line playing with no spirit, no heart. no desire, no grit and no system.

Ok, let's pick ONE ruck and ONE ruck only - Kruddler is 100% correct.  TdK plays like dog crap when Pitto plays, every single time.  TdK at his best gives us some marking power around the ground, Pitto doesn't. I'd be having a serious chat with Tom this week, commit or GAGF the saga is selfish and clearly damaging the fabric of the club. There's the  ruck choice, but if Pitto plays he has to be way more aggressive and lead the way.
Pick another marking target across half forward FFS - Lemmy or HoK to at least draw the flies away from Chuck.  There's a warm body to play second ruck, they just have to compete, not expecting Gary Dempsey reincarnated.
Stick with Moir, looked a bit tentative at times but that might be a confidence thing.
Tell Charlie that if they're hanging off him, get angry.  Smash anybody dumb enough to enter the drop zone and if they're hanging on.....
Fogarty can run around in the twos, been rubbish for an extended period.  I'd try Boyd across half forward. Last chance saloon. Maybe even Flynn or Billy for some zip, oh, any small forwards who don't get three tackles don't get another contract.  Enough of the failure to apply pressure, they embarassed themselves last night.

Acres can go get whatever work he needs doing done and replaced by Lucas C. Can't carry the worst kick in the AFL anymore.
Cerra can go learn  commitment and decision making in the two, replaced by Ben C. Cincotta would give us somebody who would at least tackle and block in the centre square.
I'd be sticking with Moo and Matty C, at least they tried I thought.   If there's a match up for HoF I'd keep him as well. The pace of the game was too hot for him early but he kept trying to do the right thing.  The pies tried to do a Jack Watts on him and break him, gees they are ruthless.
McGovern - I could write an essay on this bloke but seriously, anybody would be of more use than this fumbling, mistake prone  disappointment.  I'd even consider playing Young and consider Matty C to cover the hybrid types.

DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

What are you smoking mate? Like many Carlton supporters, you have an over inflated opinion of our list.

Sounds like you know the obvious answer why the squad and system has not progressed and has not improved since 2023 Preliminary Final.

Cincotta didn't play VFL tonight.
Similar to O'Farrell last week.

That's probably an indication that with the short break he will play against Brisbane.
