2015-Rnd 6 Carlton vs Brisbane (Preview)

[Thryleon]

Yep, mystified why we recruited the "mature" players such as Dick when a first year player requiring endurance work gets a gig.  That said, the ball will be on the deck a lot today with the persistent rain and those who want it most will get it.

As others have opined, it must be to replace Ellard with the side rejigged, surely he can't play across half back?

I reckon we had a bet each way with the mature recruits and thankfully they saw fit to recruit a couple of mature bodies because we have seen what happens when you try and build with draft picks and young players.

It's conceivable that we lose Simpson, Judd, Carrazzo, Jamison and Walker this year to go with any traded players we ship off.

Think about where that leaves us.

Smith is probably getting a game as a function of his attitude. He might be the only youngster who actually wants to be here today and will actually kill himself on the park.
