2018 Rd 9: Pre game Anticipation: Carlton vs Melbourne
#1
Melbourne are looking better this year, but they are also looking quite inconsistent. Unfortunately they do not have as many injuries as we do. Sad
Live Long and Prosper!

The way Melbourne won yesterday does not fill me with comfort: they were pretty good.
If we had something like a full list to select from I would go into the game with a lot of confidence. However, with the injuries we have, it will be difficult.
Gawn is one of the best rucks in the game who usually beats Kreuzer. It will be interesting to see if Phillips returns.
Live Long and Prosper!

If Ed is given a rest, I'd be tempted to bring in Cam Polson and give him a run with role. He's been a tackling machine in the 2s and has endurance.

Fair call, might get a education playing on Viney who is due back for the Dees...I'd expect Bugg to come in as well and play on Simpson in a Lamb like role....

Both Curnows got off with a $1000 fine.

Free to play against the Dees.

Betcha they are worried now.

Murphy and Marchbank ins?

What is the latest with Marchbank? I gather he didn't play 2s last weekend?

Kennedy? Foot/ankle must be ok if he can rack up 30 possessions?
Finals, then 4 in a row!

According to todays club injury propaganda Marchbank has some bone bruising on his ankle and won't play this week but should be back the following week. Murphy and Williamson both a chance to play this week, will have tests later in the week
