Give Harry a go

Think you are right. There is another role planned for one of them at least. We can only guess though at what it will be.

‘Give Harry A Go?’  I think he will today.  There was no justification to name him as an emergency, except as cover for Krooz, and he won’t come up. Big H needs to take his chance; dry track, weaker opposition, faster ball movement.

I'm looking forward to seeing him in action today.  Smile

Bolton said that Harry will come into the side if the Tractor can’t play.

I was surprised they played 4 last week.

Point is, picking O'Shea to cover Marchbank as you move him to the wing, is making our backline weaker....and i'm not sure our midfield stronger.

Why not pick a specialist wing instead of moving marchbank? He was one of our best last week, and we 'reward' him by playing him out of position? It doesn't make sense.

If we're going to muck around with it I'd like to see Marchbank up forward rather than on a wing.

Looks like Harry's playing VFL...and kicking goal(s)...well one!

I notice Kerridge isn't on the team list for NB's and he is one of today's emergencies.....
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?

Yes, physically he could play there, but marchbank was one of our best last week and now we move him out of position to accommodate O'Shea into the team? Why not just bring in a wingman??

I apologise wholeheartedly.

You were right,  Bolton is showing his limitations as match selector and potentially outcoached himself in both games.

I'm notching it Two games that selection has cost us more than anything.
