Maybe Jack will play and be that big inside mid we need and contain Fyfe.
McGovern to kick a bag and win us the game.
Tell Kennedy to stop Fyfe.... your job lad (in between supporting Folau you numpty)

1. Can we play without Cripps.
2. Can Teague coach.
If he can get the boys to be competitive in the absense of BOTH our skippers, on the other side of the country no less, then we need to start looking hard at him.
Which brings me to the obvious question.
Who captains? Ed? Simmo?? Murphy???
Good question.
You'd go Murphy unless you want a youngster to give it a go.
For me the next one who shows the right stuff and would benefit from a short go at captain would be Jacob weitering.

I'd love to see them make Simmo captain for this game

I like that idea. See if he's got one more Simmo special left in him. See if the youngsters have got any respect for a bloke who deserves plenty.

So the 4 who are to be omitted MUST be from the interchange group listed, correct?
That is, the listed starting 18 are definite, short of a last minute disaster?

So, so.
Who will step up?
I applaud your optimism and hope we play out of our skins and its a great day out for Bluebaggers.
Unfortunately Carlton are Carlton too.
The last time we defeated Freo was early 2016...
Since then we all know our list and coaching changes. Right now our team is led by Crippa, who won't even make the trip
Its won or lost in the middle. Without Crippa, the heat is on the mids. Fisher, Samo, Setterfield, Murphy, Dow, Walsh and whoever else rotates through are going to need to bring their A game for 4 quarters. If we don't get first use of the ball, and use it efficiently, it may be a long day. I'd like to see Gibbons in the middle. I think his pressure, endurance, and nous will be useful.
We need to score early to silence the crowd. Give them a few goals lead, like we've been doing lately and it's game over imo. Then it will be a matter of the entire backline stepping up. Stopping Walters and Matera around goals will be a challenge that I'm hopeful our backs can conquer.
Freo by 5 goals
Go Blues- prove me wrong

I believe we can omit someone from the named starting 18 but there’s a financial penalty. Unless there’s a fitness issue, I suspect that the last four named will miss out.

If I was Teague I'd call in sick for this one...but I think he's probably made of sterner stuff.
Everything points to an relatively easy day at the office for Freo
But funnier things have happened.
Cripps out will change Freo's thinking a bit in terms of matchups.
Some of the younger guys might be keen to take up the slack and we may actually see another level for some with Cripps's absence.
Freo will be fairly confident...maybe over confident.
The start is all important...we cant afford starts like our last two efforts.
It will need a hell of a lot to grow right but it's a great (and interesting test) to see how we operate without Cripps.
In some respects it's also a bit of a measure of Silvagni's recruitment.
