    They freed him up because they drafted Rivers two years earlier and had Mackie playing in the same team (alongside the others you mentioned). Aside from that they have a heap of young talls in the VFL who are promising footballers but not good enough to displace Lonergan, Mackie or Taylor (yet). These kids have been in the system a year longer than Hamling and are bigger bodied.

    It seems Geelong earmarked him for a KD post, why else have him going one on one with Hawkins all these years when really they needed to think of him as third defender and bite the bullet on Mackie's position.
    They very nearly outsourced that decision.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        Forgot about that one. Roughead's a very good player and probably not Talia's ideal matchup. There have been a lot of players he has kept to one goal this year, the only other player who has really got a hold of him was Charlie Dixon and it was only for 2 goals in the 1st quarter when Talia was coming back from the VFL

        His performances haven't been too bad, and he is still only 22 with less than 30 games played
        If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

          Pavlich got 5 on him and Moore/Grundy/White probably combined for about 7 on him as well. He needs to improve a lot, but for the most part be hasn't had big bags kicked on him.

            Re: Lachie Henderson won’t play for the Blues again

            Did I read that Carlton have told Henderson he won't be selected for the rest of the year?

            I would name him in the ruck. And not interchange him all day. And instruct a team-mate who is unhappy with his decision to go 3rd man up all over the ground...knee into Henderson of course.

            Tell me who amongst the members wouldn't support this course of action?
            What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

              Talia played pretty exclusively on Grundy and Witts against the Pies. I didn't see him match up on Moore at all.
              But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                  Well, I can't speak for Carlton members, but I wouldn't.
                  TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

                      Mark Murphy going to GCS would need to happen as well to get a genuine shock month status.

                              No. I don't think he can do that.

                                Why wouldn't they stick in the northern bull ant blues side?
                                I'd be surprised if they get a top 10 for him(that was proposed)
