If Doc ends up playing, he will have played his last 3 games against the same team at the same ground.
Prelim
Opening round
Elimination final???

Docherty's value in elevating the whole team around him cannot be underestimated.

Given the way he moved at training, I say do it!
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?

Seems like it’s done 😳

Assuming he’ll be back in his midfield/forward role, who comes out for Doc?

I suspect that it will be Binns.

If his knee goes again is it Andrew Russell's fault?

If a knee goes again, i think he should retire.

I think thats partially why there is such a big push to get back for this year, because injuries are catching up with him.

It will mean that Docherty’s most recent three games will all come against his old side Brisbane at the Gabba: the 2023 preliminary final, 2024 Opening Round and now the 2024 elimination final.

If Doc does a knee again, it’s equally likely to be at training as it is to be during a game.

The graft is not going to get any stronger or weaker and his quadriceps and hamstrings will be as strong as they can get.

Fingers crossed though 🤞

Doc will come in and do his bit, nothing surer. The others around him need to lift and get their jobs done.
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton cannot win the 2025 AFL Premiership

Big inclusion - big moment player that rarely loses his one on ones that can add flexibility through the midfield.

Its like if Cripps came back from a long term injury and is fit to play would you play him ? To my eye Doc. Weitering, Charlie, Walsh is no different

Feeling exactly the same way. Hope that 'pumped' feeling is shared amongst the rest of the team.

My tip is for Doc to come off the bench - then listen for the roar from the crowd!

However, can't help but wonder if this is his swan song.
