Mr Milera now has 50 games under his belt so the base is their , theoretically the next 50 will be of a higher standard , time they use his foot skills and easiness to the advantage , I would be telling Crouch boys to handball to Milera every chance they get.

Quite like CEY as well.

I will pay more attention to DMac and Douglas from now on.
Good point re Milera, will be interesting to see how high he flies! Other X-factor I reckon in Seedsman, elite long kick on the wing, I think he can “beat” opposition defences on the run, also can kick accurately for goal from well past 50. Should be a good game this weekend against GWS, we seem to have the wood over them at home!

Seedsman just has to get his body right , certainly has the ability.

Should be a cracker of a game

You still got a soft spot for your former Anzac Medallist Herbie? I was actually at that game, I’ve got a couple of mates that barrack for Essendon and I’ve been over a few times for it. What was the go? Did he having a falling out with Buckley?

He is one of those blokes who always seemed to be injured and couldn't string enough games together to see if he could realise his potential.

Buckley has had a fallen out with most players so wouldn't surprise me if that was the case ? , can't recall what the situation was , maybe thought his time was up and needed a change.

maybe I am getting Douglas and McKay mixed up again , never have and never will work out which one is which.

Gibbs has never had a good defensive side to his game , they must have known that from his Carlton days , can't understand what is going on.

CEY has been good too , I think the X factor at the centre bounce will be Milera , Sloane on a wing , but still leaves the 2 Crouches.

Greenwood offers a lot up forward too.

Sloane has a fitness test tomorrow , so be interesting if Gibbs or Greenwood end up coming back in.
Guess the player...

Does this mean Gibbons gets dropped or plays in the middle? hmmm
Hopefully Fasolo out and never seen on an afl field again
Bit harsh, but yeah I do see your point. Probably wasn't the best pick up for Carlton ...
Fasolos stats from footywire:https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/pp-carlton-blues--alex-fasolo

Can't work out how to paste here but, 3 games, 20 disposals, 2 goals, 1 goal assist, 2 frees for, 5 frees against.

I hope he's given something on the training track but still feel he should not play again. Sorry if I have offended anyone including Alex, his family or friends.

Did he say anything about Sauce?

Hopefully O'Brien has a great game against Mumford to warrant keeping him in the side next week against Richmond.

Don't like the 5 day turn around though.
Nothing mentioned about him, sorry.
