2018 Rd 22: Pre Game Preparations: Carlton vs Western Bulldogs

[Lods]

I'm hearing Tom deKoning will make his debut on Sunday

He will
Final team

In: Weitering, De Koning, Mullett

Out: Graham (calf), Pickett (omitted), Kerridge (omitted)

Emergencies  Harrison Macreadie , Angus Schumacher , Sam Kerridge, Jarrod Pickett

[blue4life]

Graham and Kerridge can both play in the midfield, not very well admittedly, and Pickett struggles to get a kick but is quick.
So with those three out we pick Mullett, Weitering and an up and coming ruckman in his first game.
It's a very slow side.

[Professer E]

Mullet..... Gees we must hoping for a game with a combined tackle count between the two sides of about forty.

3 smalls out for two talls and a mullet.

SOS is making sure we lose this one to lock away the 1st pick.

That number 1 pick was a lock a long time ago. That said, looking forward to seeing TDK have a run around....I'm guessing still pretty raw but worth a punt and let Harry McKay play as a permanent forward? Polsen has done an amazing job at holding his spot in the team given he's done SFA for most games.

Worth having a look on the website to the video where Bolts announces Tom’s inclusion and what he says after that re the youth.

Maybe Polson is following coaching instructions to the letter? "Look son, I want you to go out there and do SFA!"

True Cookie....if so, then the Coach's Trophy (if they still have those) is in the bag!

He kicked an amazingly flukey goal against Hawthorn and in the same game chipped a nice pass to Harry McKay, so far that's all she wrote.
