bring pressure especially from our fwds after we go the long bomb we need to tackle tackle we cant let hawks run the ball out with ease and connect    ( coll laid 25 tackles in fwd zone ) thats the target

Mathematically the season is still alive for us, we need to win every game and some whacky results need to go our way. There is a slight pulse and nothing would please me more that send Doc out the right way and honour the Big Horse on his 200th against this bunch of smug prats.
Go Blues.
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

Is it?

I thought I had the ladder predictor giving us no chance due to the head to head results we were relying on?

I.e.  Collingwood losing to Freo makes it even harder.

Hawthorn will smack us, way more to play for and our club/culture is at an alltime low, I dont hold any value in the Melbourne win who are in a equally dismal phase of their football history with the same problems but in a more advanced state of dishevelment on and off the field.

You’re probably right EB but I expect a big effort from us in light of the occasion.
Reality always wins in the end.

Cookie, Im hoping we send Doc off in the right manner but given the events happening at the club Im not confident.

Love to know what Acres did to get recalled - wash the MCs cars or something?
Perfect game to play another small defender like Boyd or Wilson.

It'll be a smacking.

Theoretically two strong ins, but…….?

I mucked around the other night, had us winning every game by 20 pts, had a few around us losing.

Sportsbet don't think so.
They've taken us off the board. :(

Maybe they brought back Acres to be part of Doc's final game?
Anythings possible with our MC.

Our line-up:

B:   2 Lachlan Cowan   23 Jacob Weitering  26 Nick Haynes
HB:   15 Sam Docherty   22 Harry O'Farrell   4 Oliver Hollands
C:   13 Blake Acres   9 Patrick Cripps   32 Matthew Carroll
HF:   8 Lachie Fogarty   30 Charlie Curnow   19 Corey Durdin
F:   38 Will White   10 Harry McKay   43 Ashton Moir
R:   12 Tom De Koning   29 George Hewett  5 Adam Cerra
Int:   42 Adam Saad   6 Zac Williams   36 Cooper Lord   27 Marc Pittonet  3 Jesse Motlop

Em:   25 Jaxon Binns   37 Jordan Boyd   40 Hudson O'Keeffe

[1] I'm a little bemused that Acres is back. Hopefully, he's bee freshened up and is ready for a big one. I can't think of anything else. I'd still be getting him operated on now, but ...
[2] Fog ... I am surprised that he hasn't been dropped. He hasn't done much for quite a while. For that matter, Will White has been down lately and is lucky to be getting a game.
I don't know what else to say, to be honest. I've struggled to understand our MC for quite a while. I guess, with our injuries, there were always going to be questions whose answers I wouldn't be privy to.
Live Long and Prosper!

The Acres selection is a joke.  Makes a mockery of "selection integrity"
