I've just moved the last couple of posts on discussion of the list changes over to the "List Management" thread
Can we continue the discussion there and leave this thread to the pre-match

It’s funny how there seem to a couple of topics that emerge simultaneously in several threads and list management is one that is cropping up all over the shop at the moment 🤔

We destroyed Geelong last time by employing a similar ball movement to what we did against North.  It will be interesting to see whether Scott can come up with a counter to that and, if so, what our Plan B will be.
It's still the Gulf of Mexico, Don Old!

Only 1 change: Harry for Lewis

Is our last interchange named generally our sub?? If so, it's Acres which I'm not totally against.

Not announced until an hour prior to the game.

Coach Voss says Jacob Weitering has great pain tolerance and after hobbling off in the win over Nth thats not convincing me he is very fit and should be playing. Im sure he will be jabbed up etc but Id rather him miss one game than be out for the next couple after Geelong which are probably more winnable.

Playing him has disaster written all over it. I reckon he'll be a late out.
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 can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

If there is a bit of doubt, don't play him.

It's a lesson we should have learnt after some fiascos last year.

Hopefully he's a 100% and good to go.
If he plays injured and gets hurt we won't hear the end of it. ;)

Massive game - haven't beaten a decent team in 10 months which regardless of reasons has to stop this week.

We can't use injuries as an excuse and seem to match up ok against Cats.

If sitting 2nd in the second half of last season wasnt a anomaly we have to win this. No excuses just get it done.

I tend to agree. Playing unfit players is fraught with danger. Making an injury worse would be a disaster.
Live Long and Prosper!

I agree.

However, I'm not sure weiterings i jury is one that can get worse.
From my eyes it was a knock on the knee. I doubt he broke anything and your not really going to get any ligament damage.

He may be in pain, but playing won't make it worse.

If.....my armchair diagnosis is correct.

We'll never know.   I hears a tale from an ex afl player today who pushed through thr pain barrier.  Was an Achilles injury.  Ended up tearing the hamstring off the bone on the opposite leg as it was compensating for the injured ankle.

Perhaps that's a correlation not causation but the logic has merit.  You could make something worse by playing injured.  Just depends what.  Also depends on the person and the injury.

Little Hanners and I will be on the train from the old Rat today with a great expectation, we match up with this lot, B. Smith is not that much of a difference, Myers out is! No Tomahawk will be a massive boost for the Weitbot. Just hope they go with the DK ruck duel again....

I was there, Blight missed!!!
