NAB Challenge - Carlton v Hawthorn @ Aurora Stadium

It's interesting isn't it. Jones really polarizes opinions between those who watch the game and those in the inner sanctum. I don't get it.

We delisted Holman and Walsh last year without a blink even though I thought they offered more than what Jones has shown so far. Training track form clearly carries a lot of weight.

He could just be looking after a mate

I'd play Foster or Jakcsh at FF this week and drop Jones.....going to be embarrassing if we lose to Essendon IMO after everyone has written them off and I want a decent team to take the field which means No Liam Jones... and I want a 5 goal win to stamp our authority over these cheats....

Reckon we're a big chance to lose if the Bombers are serious.

The last thing the bombers will want is injuries, especially during pre-season, I don't think they will be going in too hard.

Be interesting if Cripps plays ....what are the odds of Crowley picking him up.....reckon the ex Freo veteran wouldnt mind Cripps scalp and has been known to put his hand up to play on certain players..

Reckon the Bombers will play a few of their top ups only.....given the Bombers have lost so much size down back I wonder if we may go very tall up forward and force a player like Mitch Brown to play back...

Bombers fans will be out in force probably to protest the WADA result and the Bombers will be fired up to show the footy world they are going to be competitive and they have nothing to lose and everything to gain.....even with the Bombers down and out I am never confident as they always lift to play us....

They've got Crowley playing as a lead up forward and, according to the report in today's Age, he was best afield in their intra-club game (opposed by Gwilt).  I suspect that Worsfold won't have the luxury of using him as a run with player.  It would certainly be a test of Crowley's fitness if he did.

BB will have his plan for this game and won't get sucked in by the scum I'm sure. Dealing with Crowley will be seen as a learning opportuniy!
