Rd 15: Pre Game gentlemanly discussion: Carlton vs Adelaide

[crashlander]

We get a 6 day break, while Adelaide get 9 days. Even their 2nds had an extra day.
They were embarrassed last week and will be looking to bounce back.

I guess Fisher, Cunningham and Williamson if fit would be straight back in.....White and Palmer might be in the mix, Byrne needs another couple of games....

They may not drop all five of those players you suggested, a couple might get another chance.....eg Graham and SPS...

I think Samo needs a kick up the bum... he hasn't done anything since the Collingwood game.... send him back to the twos and sharpen him up a bit

If they had put White in, we might have been able to release Jones up the field and then we would have had some chance of a few run-down tackles.

I think the hit on Lamb put the wind up some of our smaller/younger blokes and they basically stopped tackling with full intent!

100% Agree, if SPS and Pickett aren't chasing down opponents they are next to worthless!

Yep, Samo has gone MIA.

Time for a run in the 2s....

Will Fisher, Willo and Cunners be back this week?

[Thryleon]

Time to bring in the fringe players to see if they are up to it.

e.g. Buckley??

Smedts, Boekhorst, Graham, Pickett are the fringe... I guess Buckley, White and Palmer are the next inline fringe....Buckley may have been useful vs the Tigers small forwards, not sure Bolton thought their forward line through too much, we probably had 1-2 too many tall backs...

[flyboy77]

Palmer should be playing. useful mid and can kick goals.....
