I’m being an idiot about Shiel.
Perkins should be dropped.
Agree about Perkins, just hope all the kids keep their places; including Tsatas getting a full game.

The following shouldn’t play again for different reasons:
Shiel - not part of our future
Davey - soft as butter and will be delisted
Menzie - hopeless and will be delisted
Players to consider
Parish - obvious
Tsatas - starter
Visentini - have a look
The 4 MSD picks.
Who is in/out - who knows.
A lot will depend on the 4 new guys and how they fit in. Theyre the unknowns.

Agree with your premise, but not your conclusion.
The best way to play them into form is to put undersized players on them.
They have far better players and more importantly they’re all available. Also the biggest strength in their tall forwards is our biggest weakness atm. We were lucky last night Hipwood is useless and Morris had an off night.
Add to that they’ve been smashed from pillar to post for 2 weeks in the media so will be breathing fire. We’ll be lucky to get within 6 goals of them.
I’d say it’s to bring in a player that isn’t good enough based on size alone
You may be right. But I think some assessments of FC are based on where people (including media) think they should be, because ‘players’, rather than where they are - currently below us on the ladder.
Bring enough pressure, they are gettable.

I’ve got a feeling the players coming out will be Tsatas & Johnson

Kind of glad the kids are going into this game with some momentum and confidence.
Not sure which works out best - FarkCarlton with a couple of weeks off to regroup before this game or us coming in with some confidence.
Keen to see Vigo get a go. You’d think Parish would be a chance too.
Of the 4 new recruits, who is more likely to play?
OUT: ADW, Tsatas
IN: Parish, McMahon
Sub: Hobbs
Out
- Perkins (work on forward craft, team structure and tackling)
- Durham (give him a well earned rest, we need to protect him when we can given his attack on the contest)
In
- Davey (getting speed and pressure into the forward line, force Carlton to cough it up)
- Shiel (line breaking ability which will be lethal vs carlton keep him as a spare behind stoppage to run through.)
Tsatas to get full midfield minutes in place of Durham/Perkins - give the kid a proper crack to show why we drafted him
