Pre-Game Possibilities: AFL Rd 7: Carlton vs North Melbourne

[kruddler]

Both Lobbe and Phillips named in the extended squad? Maybe cover in case Curnow doesn't come up and Casboult plays permanent forward with Lobbe/Phillips sharing the ruck?

Philips has been injured recently yeah?
Maybe its just a precaution if he doesn't come up.

A must win for us! No doubts, no questions, no excuses.

[Professer E]

Any confidence I had evaporated with that list of outs.

OUT: Kade Simpson (Injured), Mitch McGovern (Injured), Nic Newman (Injured), Matthew Kreuzer (Injured)

We have 4 awful outs this week, 4 players we really struggle to replace. Hopefully our rucks can control Goldstein, who usually plays well against us. It will be interesting to see what ruck combination we actually come up with.

C: Trent Dumont, Shaun Higgins, Jared Polec
HF: Tarryn Thomas, Mason Wood, Jack Ziebell

Looking at all the ins for this weekend and still no Kennedy? He must be doing something wrong in the VFL?

And please, surely not bringing Garlett back in? Did he even play in the VFL last week?

Hard to see what O’Brien is doing better than Kennedy right now.

And the other mob get back their best player plus some.  AAAArGH.

Professory, we've got them well and truly covered. Our ins (with the possible exception of Lobbe or Phillips) are quality replacements.

Kennedy is learning his craft... patience Barbs

Covering the ground is about the only thing he's doing better.  I'd consider dropping him for garlett or setterfield.
