I watched the GWS and can I just say I must commend Blacres. Cripps aside, I haven't seen a Carlton player battle through adversity and still have an impact in donkeys years.
Couldn't agree more.
I hope BlAcres shoulder is ok and we win at the tribunal. My guess is we're appealing - given that his shoulder is ok.
Either way, he's been a real asset for us. Dutchy has a good mentor.

LDU’s injury is hard to assess. I thought because he pulled out of the Tassie game after the warm-up, he must have strained it doing stretches and the like. But the explanation given by North is that he sustained a corked calf in the game against Freo. He had trained fully before being selected against Hawthorn but could then feel the cork in the warm-up.
It seems that a corked calf can lead to 1-4 weeks off. Even if he trains fully, that doesn’t mean he’ll be right on match day, as his late withdrawal shows. He’ll probably play but he’ll be questionable until he runs into the centre square to start the game.

Logue suspension upheld....so he's missing, along with Ben McKay.
We must be confident that Acres will be fit to play otherwise why would they bother appealing it?

To let the afl know that whilst we are good afl citizens we arent going to sit on the mat and be kicked anymore

Blake may have been playing with a stinger. If so, it’s probably not bad enough to cause him to miss.
I suspect we’ll contest every MRO/Tribunal decision if there’s a chance of getting the penalty reduced … like De Koning’s kneeing fine last week.

I'll give Blake a week off to rest his shoulder we have a series of shortened 6 day breaks almost three games in two weeks.

Suspension's been upheld
A week off to rest his shoulder /pec

The game is in serious trouble if guys are getting suspended for that.

North has certainly toughened up, and play a good, accountable brand of footy, but if we are fair dinkum about playing finals, then we should win, with or without Acres. Ben McKay also out.
