Carlton
B: Zach Tuohy, Sam Rowe, Sam Docherty.
HB: Andrew Walker, Lachie Plowman, Dale Thomas.
C: Kade Simpson, Patrick Cripps, Jed Lamb.
HF: Liam Sumner, Levi Casboult, Matthew Wright.
F: Sam Kerridge, Simon White, Liam Jones.
Foll: Matthew Kreuzer, Bryce Gibbs, Marc Murphy.
Int: Ciaran Byrne, Dennis Armfield, Ed Curnow, Andrejs Everitt.
Emg: Dylan Buckley, Nick Graham, Michael Jamison.
In: Andrew Walker, Patrick Cripps, Andrejs Everitt.
Out: Jacob Weitering (Shoulder), Andrew Phillips (Hamstring), Nick Graham (Omitted)
A couple of these decisions make me scratch my head somewhat: I wouldn't have selected Walker just because I don't think he plays well 1st game back. he would do better getting some form and fitness in the VFL. Everitt I would also have still I the VFL, although the case for him is a little easier to make when he got so much of the ball last week.
I am a little surprised that Graham got dropped. He is not in his best form, but he did get votes last week. Not enough to keep Cripps out, I assume.
Phillips is a HUGE out. Kreuzer has a very poor record against Grundy, and the extra height of Cox makes him a difficult target. However, we hid that particular hamstring remarkably well. Nobody had any idea, unless he did it last night at training.
Weitering is another huge out, but one we were expecting.
I am also a little surprised that Jamo was named as emergency when he was concussed last week. I probably would not have played I'm at all this week.
Nichevo. Our Match Committee cearly has different thoughts to mine.
Collingwood
B: Alan Toovey, Jack Frost, Brayden Maynard.
HB: Adam Oxley, Ben Reid, Josh Smith.
C: Tim Broomhead, Adam Treloar, Steele Sidebottom.
HF: Jordan De Goey, Darcy Moore, Levi Greenwood.
F: Alex Fasolo, Mason Cox, Jeremy Howe.
Foll: Brodie Grundy, Scott Pendlebury, Jack Crisp.
Int: Jesse White, Jarryd Blair, James Aish, Ben Crocker.
Emg: Brent Macaffer, Tom Phillips, Travis Cloke.
In: Jesse White, James Aish, Ben Crocker.
Out: Nathan J. Brown (Omitted), Tom Langdon (Ankle), Ben Sinclair (Concussion)
A pity Brown was omitted. Decent forward usually get a few against him. But then, do we have any decent forwards?

Shame Weitering went out but who is his replacement?

Walker
Cripps
Everitt
OUTS
Weitering (Inj)
Graham (Om)
Phillips (Inj)
Also pleased Jamo didnt come in without warranting it. I really reckon he is done at AFL level, looked exhausted after evert contest.
Walker is an interesting selection. It must be his meticulous preparation, professionalism and dedication that makes him an "auto selection". Good luck son.

Second all that.

Plowman will have his work cut out for him.
Re: Rd 7 : Pre Game Thread - Blues v Pies - blue4life - 05-05-2016
Collingwood's side is very average, this could be a nil all draw.

I'm glad Cloke isn't playing (is an emergency though) as it would be just our louck for him to hit form and kick a bag. We're a bit short-on down back.

Yeah you're probably right GTC. I still have memories of Watson being thrown to the lions in his debut for us when he was played on Cloke.
Re: Rd 7 : Pre Game Thread - Blues v Pies - Barbs - 05-05-2016
Little worried about the height of their forward line. Cox, Moore and White lining up and Rowe is our only real KP defender. Plowman has been coming along nicely but he's giving up a fair bit of height this week. I won't be surprised if Everitt has to move back at some point to help out. Maybe White too.
