So after all the umpire saga he doesn't play anyway. Cant take a trick!
Kerr is in.
We should ask the AFL if Charlie can take Ed's week...lol.

Seems fair...they're responsible for all the tension...and that probably led to the tight quad >

Great to see Kerr in, kid can play and I hope we persist with him.....he should have been played before IMO.
Tough game give Melb are strong in the midfield and have a bit of firepower up forward, as usual it all comes down to a couple of players ie Cripps, Kreuzer having great games for us, if either of them have an average day its probably going to get ugly.

I reckon Kerr is one of those blokes whom if you don't respect he'll kick goals on you. Like all good forwards he makes chances count. I also wouldn't want to stand in the hole when the ball is coming in.

Agree...good supply might be the issue and of course the modern game requires forwards to defend to some extent but he has the tools to hurt other teams and is the only genuine FF we have had since Fev...
Re: 2018 Rd 9: Pre game Anticipation: Carlton vs Melbourne - Jack Burton - 05-19-2018
Went to open training this morning. Very light session obviously given we play tomorrow. No Curnows in sight (only found out later Charlie has done his quad, and they probably gave Ed a couple of days R&R after a pretty torrid week). Most striking was the mood of the players, they were up and about, lots of smiles and pats on the back, plenty of talk, they really got around their mates when they did something good, I got the feeling they are pretty tight as a group. Cripps led them out and trained at a higher level of intensity than everyone else (except maybe O'Brien), was first in every time Bolton blew the whistle, even if there were 10 blokes closer when the whistle went. Matt Wright was in street clothes and didn't do anything, McKay and Lamb didn't participate in any drills, but had a few set shots at the end. Lamb in particular looked sore. Murphy moved well, but didn't get out of second gear (like most of his teammates). Pat Kerr was up and about (I only found out later he'd just been told he was playing), his set shot goal kicking was outstanding

Thanks for that Jack
Wright in doubt...or just managed?
We'll see tomorrow.
Re: 2018 Rd 9: Pre game Anticipation: Carlton vs Melbourne - Jack Burton - 05-19-2018
Not sure, but Matt Shaw trained with them, If Wright is out it will be Shaw in
Re: 2018 Rd 9: Pre game Anticipation: Carlton vs Melbourne - Lods - 05-19-2018
If Wright's out I'd prefer Jack Silvagni...but we'll see.
