If you keep doing the same thing, don't expect a different result.

I skimmed your post and clicked the link straight away.

When i read it i thought it said "We will see..."
So watching the video I was waiting for Vossy to jump out and surprise him.
Then i re-read your post.  :-[

I doubt its this week, but it will be soon IMO.

There is a fair bit of talk around the Carlton forums that Hewett will be back in this week.
Almost like it's a done deal.
I can't see anything official.
There's no team until tomorrow night.
Has Voss announced it somewhere.

Of the 6 in's you've mentioned, only Hewett deserves a call-up. That's not going to happen. If you saw Voss' post match you'd know George is on the nose. Well on his nose primarily
I would rather Harry went to CHB than bring in the donkey (L Young).
Wilson started off pretty well yesterday afternoon but then had a couple of horrible moments and his confidence just dropped off. Like he felt he'd blown his chance? Still I'd be happy to give him a run if Cowan doesn't get up. Maybe he'll get in anyway. At the expense of a seriously underdone/out of form Cottrell
HOK is just no good at the moment. Cannot get considered, so based on our MC he has every chance
You need to watch the magoos game. Moir kicked an absolute ripper on his left from the boundary. More evidence of a player who has "something" but just can't sustain it for longer periods , yet, I hope.  Still if Harry goes back he would be my logical replacement.
Finally, Ison. First time I've had a good look at this kid and I'm hoping, HOPING, we may have found one. Didn't get a lot of it but 3 goals from 8 kicks ain't bad. Looks to have some mongrel too. Wouldn't mind having a look at him in the big league

oh, p.s. Cody Walker. Very, very good

Word on the street is he might be reconsidering his decision to nominate us.
That's word on the street named Jack Riewoldt Street.

Good news if true Lods.   Could never understand the logic of him not being in the team.  

With Hewlett back in and on the ball, It would be great if our coaches did something really daring like .....Cripps to CHF and Harry to CHB for at least a quarter.  Then if not working out swap them....Cripps to CHB and Harry back to the forward line.
ie. change it up rather that same old same old.

Perhaps if they really got into the swing of it....move the two ex Sydney boys Ollie and Will around to give us more grunt on the ball, with Flynn Young up forward. 
All too much for Carlton coaches ??

Voss is too busy with his head in his laptop to make bold changes.

Need to uninstall solitare  ;)

This approach to tactics is tricky.

In any management environment, if you are shuffling things around too much, this is actually bad.  It creates a lack of stability and makes people feel a bit like you dont have faith in them to perform their role.  Sure, its team sports and its not quite the same thing, but there is an element of that which shouldnt be ignored.

I think on a tactical or game play type of level, we have the way we want to play.  That involves players playing a role and taking an action or reaction in play.   For those roles, at the start of the year, Voss had his roster, and came up with plans for each role.  This is why players seemingly come into the team irrespective of form line.  I.e.  Cottrell 2 weeks ago.  The player he is up against, for a game in our team, may not obviously be the same one, even if they can play the same role.  You probably identify a couple of different options for each role, and this is why its a bit strange.

The sort of things that people on here get annoyed about regarding the lack of obvious "attempts to change things" is very much magnets on a board stuff.  It doesn't involve managing people and forgets that this is a more involved process, with flow on impacts and effects that are not considered.  It also fails to understand why some players get omitted vs others at times, because it may be a multi faceted change.  Thing

Showing a lack of dare is something, but Harry to CHB is a fandom moment.  He might work back there, but robbing him from the forwardline given our other forward options, and his lack of experience back there is a shock factor move, not a planned one.  You might try it for a game or two at some point, but you wont just do it on the fly without giving him some input, because he might very well be a lost puppy without a specific assignment.  

I think for Harry they would have identified his forward roles, and a backup ruck role with nothing else happening.  How he moves with and around Kemp and Mcgovern is his focus.  You flick that switch up too much and you wreck players confidence, and lets face it, Harry is a delicate flower. 

He swings the magnets that are a bit more palatable to it, rather than trying things with guys that are what you see is what you get footballers.   Cripps is fine as an additional tall.  Put him at full forward from the start, and I reckon defenders would lick their lips.  Not overly fast, not overly strong over head (his shoulders arent great) and he has a history of back issues.  We have broken him a bit too. 

Anyway, of our 46 players, having them learn more than 2 roles per player is likely undesirable as you hit a critical mass of too many "pinch hitters" all of a sudden not figuring out how to play next.

I hope Dean is playing. The kid is one of a very few that has a real go and looks to play for the jumper.

Harry might as well stay home - will get a bath from Andrews.
