2015-Rnd 6 Carlton vs Brisbane (Preview)

I reckon Warnock has to go.
Whiley was like a deer in headlights last week. Send him back to the 2's and let him get his confidence back.
Send Curnow back to the 2's and tell him to work on his attacking side.

Keep whichever one of Menzel/Thomas are fittest and give the other one one more week off.

Cant drop Whiley after one game, thats not good coaching IMO especially in a year where development is more important
than ever...agree on Curnow.
Warnock should not have been selected in the Collingwood game...
Agree on the fittest of Thomas or Menzel, probably be the latter IMO..

But Gibbs won our B&F last season after too many years of being played out of position by previous coaches.  What has changed since last season?  Is he carrying an injury?

I am amazed they named Rockliff. They would have to be insane to play him. It also makes a mockery of the tribunal decision to suspend May for so long. But that is another tale.

They are a team of no names, so they should do well against us.  Sad :o

I am also surprised they named Daisy. I would have brought him back via the VFL. Maybe I am simply seeing him as last year's player, but I would have let him get a bit of form and fitness before sacrificing him. The same very much goes for Menzel. I would wait until he gets through a whole VFL game without any tight muscles at an absolute minimum. I'd much rather he find some form, but who am I to argue with our match committee?  >Big Grin
To be honest, I'd almost start Gibbs off on the bench. I doubt he'll be dropped, although his form merits it. I would like to see Tuohy start in the midfield and use his strength and kicking. However, based on previous weeks I will probably be disappointed again.
Live Long and Prosper!

The only thing I can deduce from those team changes is that Malthouse is purely coaching for a contract renewal, he doesn't have the club's best interests at heart.

Watson had a reasonable crack in the seconds and we know he can kick long & straight yet the Big Galoot gets a gig ahead of him. What chance does the guy have to show if he is worth keeping ??

If Gibbs can't be dropped for that lame-ass effort last week, then to what level does he have to stoop down to for it to ever happen ?? ******* protected species and a goddam disgraceful decision !!

We'll have some of the promising newbies wanting to leave soon enough, if they are putting in and not being rewarded for their effort then they will take their business elsewhere.

Mick stated after the Judge's "rebuild" statement a few weeks ago that he would continue selecting what was thought to be the best side to win each game. He has not, to my knowledge, since made any statement to the contrary. He obviously thinks that winning is the  unit that will be used to measure his performance in order to determine a contract extension or not.
Reality always wins in the end.

The bloke is coaching for a future that doesn't exist for him. We all know what will end up happening. Amazing he's allowed to hang around and waster a season of rebuilding.
Ignorance is bliss.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

Honestly Carrots, I don't reckon the club can afford the payout just yet. Cashflow is an issue and Luca Brasi  has committed to honouring the contract.


Don't forget, it's not just Old Powder Balls, it's all the deadwood he brought with him.

Surely if he picks players who have shown some form then he improves the chances of getting a win. Continually rewarding players who give little or nothing is not the way to go !!
