Options for Armo

[plugger66]

Do we go taller in the forward line where Armo is playing and play the messiah or do we bring in Cripps as sub and play Geary as a defensive forward. Cant see many other options.

[desertsaint]

walsh.
or if he is to be delisted, give bakes a swansong. if he rips it up he'd be handy in the pressure of dinals. if not, he gets the goodbye he deserves.

Latter seems the better balance to me, assuming Cripps can play a half.

Not sure we can bring in another backman. Armo should be replaced by a forward. I suppose gamble is another option.

My wife spoke to him Saturday night and he was sore but the leg felt great. The problem could be an early injury.

Thought Gamble was playing his role before injury/dropped ...so would be happy to see him back.

Gamble in, Schneider to centre?

[bergsone]

Not too sure about Cripps as he has missed a lot,even as a sub may get early inj,leave that to coachs if ready or not

[Eastern]

Has Lynch had his papers stamped? !!

Why was she feeling his leg?

Because she likes him a hell of a lot more than she likes me.

That really is upsetting. I can handle her not liking me but people on here i thought loved me. Disappointing to say the least. At least i know you like me.

Got to bring in a small/medium ie Baker, Lynch, Cripps or Gamble. I would also like to see Walsh come in but at the expense of Blake. Hang on can't make two changes seeing as we won

In: Walsh & Lynch
Out: Blake & Armo

Really hope Armo is recalled once his suspension is finished

Horses for courses, we had the cattle to cover and exploit North one on one, but it's a new gameplan for Carlton. Our defenders seem to have struggled with their small forwards in the recent past, so that needs to be taken into account. Mind you, our form is better running into this game than the last two times we met...they only just escaped early this year.

[bigcarl]

The Messiah can wait until next season.

I think go with an in-form forward like Walsh.

[Old Mate]

On second thought I think Cripps should come in (if fit enough) for Armo. Still think Walsh for Blake. A more offensive option and I dont think it will impact on our defensive set up too much if at all. Blake has been in and out a bit throughout the season. I like Cripps' speed in the forward line....

[saintspremiers]

Cripple for me.

Other option is Baker if he is prepared to take a few out.

[jays]

bring walsh in

[Junction Oval]

Cripps is under-done and if sore from Saturday, he shouldn't be looked at. We have other options.

He has had a major operation (compartment syndrome) and needs to be managed carefully. If we need him to win on saturday, things are not good.

[plugger66]

Tell me you honestly are joking reagrding Baker.

Aren't they the same person?

With a home final hanging on the outcome, I'd like to think we don't decide to debut a player, not against a unit like Carlton. Gamble's got to be an in on his previous form, I'm not sure Bakes is up to Carlton's small forwards.

[CURLY]

Give Heyne a run. If he plays well and we want to keep him good or if were looking for some trade bait come end of year he has some exposure. If he doesnt we can say hes not up to it.

[dcstkfc]

They could push Polo forward and bring in Bakes.

It's such a shame that Sydney got up, because a dead rubber would have been perfect for Walsh.

But I'd say: In: Gamble Out: Armitage (susp)

The idea of not playing a first gamer isnt a consideration its play most inform players and at the minute Walsh is banging on the door the loudest.
