Rd 16: Pre Game Premonitions: Carlton vs Adelaide - crashlander - 07-01-2016
Sunday 10th July at 1310 hours at the MCG. Last year we scared the pants off this mob and were extremely unlucky to lose. Adelaide are playing better, but we are actually playing football.

Can we redraft Sauce and Eddie for this game, or ask them to sit this one out?

It will be interesting to see how Bolton reacts to the Collingwood game at selection.
I don't know how Jaksch played this weekend in the 2's but his defensive pressure can't be any worse than Everitt's. If we are going to push Levi up the ground more we must have a target who will go for marks inside the forward 50 plus we need to see if Jaksch is going to be a keeper going forward and if he'll do better with better quality ball coming his way.
Is Buckley going to come in for Byrne? I know it's not exactly like for like, but they have two very quick and skillful small forwards and we have no one capable of stopping them.
I have heard positive reports on Glass-McCasker, tempered by he is not ready yet, but why not give him a baptism of fire against a strong tall forward line, now we have a LTI.

Surely, surely we have to give a couple more of the NB boys a run for this game and continue to completely evaluate all players by seasons end. I would certainly look to be replacing Everitt and Levi for this one, as well as the forced replacement of Byrne (a real bummer for both him and the club!).

There must be a good story for Jacsh to play this week can't be a worse option than what was on the park last night. There are several months and some players careers are coming to an end , let's see who wants to play

Bolton needs to stick to his word and only use players in form. I would drop about four players from yesterday and overhaul the forward line...
F: Lamb Jaksch Silvagni
HF: Boekhorst Casboult Wright

Need to lose a ruckman, as having two of them never works for us as they offer us nothing when they're off thr ball. Pick a second key forward instead as`well as picking players that give us run.

Which 2nd key forward would you like to pick?
Jones who isn't the answer
Jaksch who many don't believe is the answer
...
McKay who hasn't played all year.
Walker isn't working as a potential key forward
Everitt ditto
Silvagni is given a chance but isn't
The cupboard is bare. All we have is a key forward who can't kick straight and other players who we just try and fit into the key forward role

I thought Phillips looked OK in the F50 - probably as good as anyone else we can field atm.
Re: Rd 16: Ppre Game Prognostications: Carlton vs Adelaide - crashlander - 07-03-2016
I am not looking forward to the next 4 weeks: Adelaide, West Coast, Sydney in Sydney and Hawthorn in Launceston. These could be seriously ugly unless we can find some more ways to score.
