1 of 2 must win games for the season!
 We'll take some confidence from last weeks win, here's hoping we can repeat !!

I'm getting the strong feeling that BB is very reluctant to bring in the older players currently not getting a game plus any that are playing who don't perform will quickly be moved out - Zach T. look out. The focus is on youth with the older guys as backup.
Reality always wins in the end.

Zach is as safe as houses, among the first half dozen picked.

The defence coaches need to work with him on the defensive side of his game. His man lost him a couple of times too easily.

Well, they won't be tired for next week. Nearly 10 goals behind with plenty yo go in the second.

His man lost him a couple of times too easily. Defenders cop a rough deal, they're bound to lose a few one on one contests but when they do it's costly, a forward gets beaten or doesn't even make it to the contest and no one seems bothered so much. Touhy's foot skills are as good as anyone at Carlton, he's quick, strong and has a natural attacking instinct. His good far outweighs the bad in my opinion.
