With their selection of Fogarty again, the selectors have shown how little faith they have in our list.

I have this suspicion Fog might be a late out
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

Don't need both Gov and Young in the side. Don't need Fogarty there either. Williams can fill that slot.

I would have dropped Gov and played Derksen.
I would have dropped Fog for Byrne

No to Fog, MacG, Young, Chesser and if they don't play him forward, Williams.

These guys need to start paying back the MCs faith or clean out ya lockers
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

Young, Fogarty and Elijah would be extremely lucky IMO.
Moir, maybe a little unlucky, but you can't argue too much.....hopefully Williams plays forward this week in his spot.
Reidy for team balance with HOK playing forward/ruck with maybe Harry doing some ruck as well.

Cowan in, will stay in.
Carroll might be keeping the seat warm for Newman or Saad in a couple weeks, but best of luck to him.

Slight improvement, but could do better.

All of the following can consider themselves lucky - Young, McGovern, Hollands x2

All of them nowhere near starting in a premiership side.

Derkson, Byrne, Campo x2 much better

Carrol was generating a bit of hype in the preseason prior to getting hurt so I’ll be interested to see how he goes. Both he and Cowan are good ‘ons’ IMO.
The Ox is slow but I'm running out of patience.

Byrne will play once he establishes done sort of fitness base, mikes ahead of Fogarty. I also expect Derkson to play before too long as guys like Gov and Young are ‘stop gap’ at best.

Rip the bandaid off, Gov and Young should be back ups only. Play Derksen over one them now.

Our line-up:
B: 2  Lachlan Cowan   23 Jacob Weitering   35 Harry Dean
HB:   11 Mitch McGovern   33 Lewis Young  14 Oliver Florent
C:   31 Campbell Chesser   9 Patrick Cripps   4 Oliver Hollands
HF:   19 Will Hayward   10 Harry McKay   12 Ben Ainsworth
F:   7 Jagga Smith   17 Brodie Kemp   8 Lachie Fogarty
R:   27 Marc Pittonet   29 George Hewett   18 Sam Walsh
Int:   6 Zac Williams   36 Cooper Lord   20 Elijah Hollands   32 Matthew Carroll   40 Hudson O'Keeffe

Em:   39 Talor Byrne   37 Jordan Boyd   43 Ashton Moir

[1] Fog is very lucky. He hasn't produced at senior level for a long time now. I wouldn't worry so much if he had 10 tackles, but I don't think he had 1.
[2] Moir might be a bit stiff, but he needs to show more desire. I think McGovern is going to play forward.
[3] Elijah was very rusty last week: I don't think he will be as ordinary this week. But, he does need to show the disposal he is known for.
Live Long and Prosper!
