Round 19 Collingwood vs Carlton Pre Game

[Professer E]

I'm more than a tad shat off with Menzel...  if he thinks he is going to get an easy ticket out of the joint by playing dead, he might be in for a nasty shock..... the NB's might have some highly talented but lazy recruits next year.

Equally surprised Henderson not also dropped for the same reason. Pays to be a good mate of the senior coach?  >

Yup, hypocritical to say the least.

Re the White chase you never give it up. It's all about perceived pressure you have to keep chasing until the ball has been disposed of. FTR Barker commended White for his efforts this week so I guess he's a coaches fave that is going nowhere as well.

Blair, Elliott, and Fasalo is the Pies version of the three amigos and small forwards tend to give us trouble, we will need to be switched on to
cover them.......Interested to see how Brayden Maynard goes...was keen on him pre draft.
Pies are very small down back and I reckon Ben Reid might start at CHB....
Mark Whiley got Pendlebury last time ...wonder if JB will give him the job again or go for Curnow or Carrazzo...
Adams will get Murphy and we will need to look after the skipper as Adams is a dirty sniper....

You wouldn't drop Tutt for a lack of effort so Barker must have only been talking about Yarran and Menzel at his presser last week.
Tutt's no good but he busts his gut.

I reckon Tutt is selective about when he has a go.  He walks or jogs towards a contest unless there's a chance he'll be on the end of a handpass.  He's not Robinson Crusoe in that, but most of his team mates do a little better when they have the ball.

I don't think there's a future for Tutt at CFC unfortunately so I don't think we should give him any more senior games on that basis.  I fear he has joined Watto in the exit lounge, and they will only play again if we have no one else available. Not sure whether or not Jones is also in there with them at this stage but it must be a strong chance.

Pay him out and piss him off.  I was livid we wasted a pick on that spud, didn't see why then, don't see it now.

mate - he has delivered more than daisy - that spud should be paid out...

Don't get me started on Mick's other pets in Daisy and Jones.... A million a year between them for both and neither worth yesterday's bread.

I still think that Thomas has something to contribute and I believe that he is held in high esteem by his team mates.  If he can stay on the park I reckon he could be good value in 2016, but perhaps not quite what his pay packet demands.

I'd would really like him to do well in 2016, just to get up Eddie's goat
