Assuming we know if that last game is a dead rubber, is there anything in the rules that would stop us playing all four emergencies and simply resting Gawn, May, Viney for example. 

Well, you push the envelope but don't cross the line

Lyon has twice rested 8 or 9 players on the eve of finals.  Brad Scott did the same

To me, it's not about resting players, more so avoiding any more injuries

As it stands, Fritsch is still out and we've run out of tall forwards who can impact games (good luck Smithy!)

    Players are routinely 'managed' throughout the season.  No rule apart from bring the game into disrepute maybe. 

    Play Casey (plus bailey for a run) in Sydney I say and give the finger to AFL HQ.

    I have read lots of posts from Pies supporters on Twitter and they seem to be OK with dropping the minor premiership.

    They don't fancy playing us at the G' and rather would play Port at the G'.

    Colliwobbles 😁😁😁

    I’ve read that too but winning from 1 from your last 5 isn’t a great form line heading into finals.

    No team has done that and went on to win the flag. It’s absolutely not what McRae was wanting. I do not care what anyone says, no coach wants their team struggling in August. 
    Doubt starts creeping in and suddenly you aren’t the scary proposition everyone thought you were. Pies in particular, have lost their greatest advantage in the last month. Teams no longer fear them. They no longer worry about getting overrun from any position. They’ve shed their cloak of invincibility. Which leaves them as just another good side in contention.

    Gold Coast will need to play on at every opportunity to even have a chance today. Can't compete defensively with Carlton.

    Flanders has 9 touches in 6 minutes

    I Put a fair bit on GC. Carlton are the biggest confidence team in the league. when their run stops, they fall off a cliff. can’t play on emotion for too long

    I’m worried about how flat Carlton are. Last week was a very hard game. I hope we don’t come out this flat.

    This looks more about preparation. They shouldn’t be flat in the first quarter. I also think the Suns match up really well in the midfield.

    Hopefully they are just flat because they made finals for the first time in a million years and have relaxed now the monkey is off their back.

    This week and next I'll be barracking for whatever combination of results see Carlton tipped out of the 8.

    Suns are coming. They have a great midfield, a good VFL side, and are about to get handed the best academy picks ever. Hardwick knew what he was doing.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.
