Re: Rnd 1 Carlton vs Richmond - Pre-Game - flyboy77 - 12-14-2017
And let's not forget the Ed Curnow 'incident' with Dusty. Payback time.
That was RD 15. Ed didn't play again!
There was no mention - anywhere in the media - of how Ed's injury happened - it was a Dusty 'don't argue'. Should have been reported imo.
We lost Lamb and Curnow that day and were only 17 points down with 10 minutes to play....

I'd like nothing better than to see Cripps or C.Curnow give Dusty some of his own fend-off medicine, followed up by the international hand signal for chopsticks! ;D

Early days yet I guess, but Cameron Bruce indicating that Weitering is probably earmarked as a defender at this stage. Obviously some big hopes for Harry and Charlie up forward next year.

Lets put it this way, when fit and confident Weitering is the best intercept mark at the club, and possibly one of the best in the league.
It's his marking that makes him so useful as an occasional forward.

Trying to pick a best 22 is the hardest it's been in years IMO.
I'm hoping Cuningham and Kennedy can fill Gibb's shoes somewhat. But I'm absolutely struggling to pick a best 22, we finally have a bit of depth.
Can't wait for a bit of footy to start, withdrawals atm

And let's hope we see the fit/confident Weiters in 2018.
I thought he was pretty darn ordinary this year.

And I also agree he should be left in the backline....maybe an intra game cameo up forward ala SOS but cameos only.
