How McKay gets a game in front of Kerr escapes me. I get the feeling the club has been pressured into this, but it is time to see what he's made of - good luck to him.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

That’s one of the worst Carlton sides for 30 years - we’ll get absolutely hammered. VFL side.

I've tipped the Cokers so we'll probably squeak in!

Feels like that but I am looking forward to seeing him get a go. As you say, good luck to him.

Me too Prof.
Now that Harry's there though, nothing would please me more than seeing him grab the chance and do well.
Kerr will get his chance soon.
I spent most of my money on Women and grog.
The rest I just wasted.

Seeing the players in this weeks Teague Mic'd up video I didn't notice Kerr training.
Good thing though, spirits seem high, that is what is needed, put the past to bed move forward as quickly as possible let the coaches deal with the potholes and fractures.
One thing BB can do at pressers is start deflecting questions about past results and rephrase answers to discuss the next game, it's dead-set easy to do as long as you are thinking straight. It'll initially annoy the hell out of the media, but eventually it will turn him into a top priority interview target like MM, they'll go to him first even when we do not win as they think of it as a challenge!
That will help remove the pressure from the players and coaches and set the tone for the week, then you won't frequently get weak minded media mongrels hack away at the team all week long, like this week Niall folded under pressure and slipped into the lowbrow cheap seat spin publishing articles about how Gibbs is flying right next to articles about Kreuzer's injury. He's obviously under pressure from above, or has had a bad week in the ratings!

It astounds me that so many people on this site have the same thoughts on our selections and yet the MC make changes that are bamboozling at best. What a joke. Cunningham out, Mullett survives pffffft. I've got a feeling that Josh Kennedy will kick more goals than out entire team. We have zero chance of winning this one.
