Watched Vossy's presser (there's nothing quite like seeing Carlton in agony), and soaked up and the Club and general media - then a diet-busting Magnum icecream - delicious!!!!

Agree on Heath. Can't believe some on here thought he had a bad game. Dogs mids were just too good, but I noted Moose's follow up work from a throw up, below the knees and hands, and his ability to go contest to contest. Was relentlessly mauled around the back of the neck by his centre bounce opponent. Lot to work with there and I would be happy to see him in the ones to relieve a bit of pressure on the other Max, and allow us to park a ruckman in the fwd line - surprised King didn't put Ganwy down there while we were bombing it in.

Would it be fair to deduce that with Heath and Laurie both named for Casey, and TMac not, that he is the only named emergency travelling to Perth with the AFL squad?

Great report RedLegs - many thanks...

Agree with many here - his physicality is impressive, can clunk a mark, and, I thought, accounted for himself well in secondary ruck duties. He also has the ability to win and quickly feed out the ball out ground level. Not sure where he fits, but hope he earns a chance to show what he has at AFL senior level.

Wonder if Ned Guy is any relation to Gary Guy, who played 20 odd games for the Dees in the mid 70s? Or Eric Guy - St Kilda champion of the late 50s, early 60s?

Don't see why it makes no sense DIAK - I prefer to think they are not leaking about candidates, tight ship and all that.

Made my day!!! Could be a bit of McGovern type as he matures?

Thanks to those who noted AJ in their posts.

Would appreciate any observations about how AJ is performing - rarely mentioned so far, but I see he ran well in the Shuttle. Understandably not a point of conversation here given the pecking order, but curious how he is going amongst the new forward (?) bunch.

Spot on DIAK - well said. Mick has being doing the grind from the Surf Coast for 10 years - he deserves a gig closer to home and family. Owes us nothing...our program owes him a great deal.

With Zanker out of contract, it seems to me the Club would not have had a lot of leverage - I think they did well to get what they did.

Echoing the thanks of others for the reports and observations - thanks all.

How smart is this move? Like how we are moving forward.
