Rd 15: Pre Game gentlemanly discussion: Carlton vs Adelaide

[Rational_Expectations]

Good ins. I probably would have given Boekhorst another week, but overall happy with those changes.

Three ins who are part of our future and three ins helping us along the way.  A fair balance for me.

I hate this "managed" word. The kid deserved to be dropped, cut the PC BS.

I think they use "managed" when he's not playing at all, not even the NBs. Basically having a rest. If he played for the NBs then he would've been dropped.

Agree. More danger signs for Boeky and Smedts.

[Baggers]

Sheesh, Palmer must be on the outer! One of the much better players two weeks in a row and ...tumbleweeds.

Generally, though, you'd be happy with those ins and outs. Oh, and when Samo returns from being 'managed' ( :) he should come back through the NBs.

Everybody off the Smedts bandwagon?
