Don't think there's much truth to the Marchbank injury.

I've been crawling around twitter and AFL sites just to see if there's any scares but can't see anything.

I guess we'll find out tonight.

its not true. a stupid rumour spread through social media.

Needs to average 74 to be worth it IMO. Can't see it happening if Easton Wood averaged less than that last year.

Yeh but you guys won the premiership so ball was in the front half more than anything.

This is Carlton we are talking about :P

The whole "needs to average" thing I don't care about. There's a lack of def rookies which is why we have to pay up. It's the same with Taranto etc

Nothing to the Marchbank rumour mill..
Just people spreading sh!t pre-lockout to scare people off..
As for Marchbank being in my team, I think there are enough options down back in a 3 premo - 5 rookie backline. I'd only select if I was to be choosing two premos in the back half

Agreed, people who say there are enough to field 3 have rocks in their heads
Hampton is the only one that I feel confident in fielding.

Cookie Monster

To have confidence in having 5 rookies in your backline is ridiculous. I can't trust anyone after Hampton. I've always been on the lookout for someone to take over EVW and now it probably has to be Hibberd but I just want to be confident in the player i start at D6 and I can't find anyone.

Otten at the moment.


But I dont' know what I would have done if Marchbank was injured.

Final teams are in for #AFLBluesTigers

Harrison Macreadie replaces Jed Lamb for @CarltonFC. @Richmond_FC remains unchanged.

What's the point of picking him? Get another Def premo in and play a mid rookie. Will get you more points and more money in the long run.

the defense premos suck, im not payting 550k for Simpson or Docherty.

Rather splash the cash on a true premo like Treloare or Selwood.

Defence rookies also suck so may have to go deep there

Marchbank Otten Hampton all look good, Stewart HIbberd nice and cheap too. No worse then barett parfitt pickett etc..

difference is i think Barrett is alot further away to a premo mid then Hibberd is to a premo back.

I'm struggling to put one mid rookie on field let alone two
