Teams v Carlton

[DeadlyAkkuret]

On selection I still say that any team that can carry both LRT & Grundy on a regular basis has a serious problem.

Let's drop them and bring in those two star KPP's...um.....their names escape me

You could find a handful of players from most teams and say the exact same thing about them, but if you think Grundy and LRT are the source of our problems then you have no idea.

well the kids have to get a run some time, can't do much worse than we were last week. Good to see someone come tru some adversity and get a run thru hard work and sticking with it

If Hall goes down, expect Pyke to debut, and White move forward, or Braba to come in, and Barlow move forward.

Also, does anybody else think it's odd that Ablett is an emergency? Surely if he was injured, he wouldn't be named at all? And if he isn't injured, then he must simply be dropped, and based on past comments by Roos (such as "our midfield just doesn't work without him"), that seems unlikely.

Ablett didn't play last week so he couldn't be dropped. Just didn't get back into the team.

FOX

[Dalai Lama]

I think his surname might be pronounced in the Spanish way: "Viyagra".

as a goal ump - he has a point to prove?

[JudesaGun]

Rumour floating around that Hall is a certainty to miss.

Anyone know anything more bout this?

Don't believe it until it is official. Apparently SEN reported Gibbs is out and Scotland in EVEN though Scotland didn't travel to Sydney, and Gibbs is completely fine. Hall I think will play, HOPEFULLY, but u never know. If he is out it looks like Pyke would come in, with White pushing up forward. Or Grundy could go to full forward (best chance to prove himself against a rather weak Carlton defence). IF Gibbs is out it would be huge for us as he usually causes us a bit of trouble.
