Raines out for 3-4 weeks!!!

dread_lord09 · March 28, 2009, 05:22:36 AM

Now that Raines is out and Stephen Hill and Broughton all out, what are you guys going to do who are in the same boat as I am?

I'm thinking wait till next week and hope that the team selection will include Hill and Broughton in it or even Petrenko!

Any chance anyone is thinking of trading Raines? If yes, who?

Pentrenko named on interchange
Broughton is the only 1 out

also i think suban has playing. hope you all didnt get broughton over him
i played with him a few years ago. best midfielder ive ever seen for his age.

well i looked at the carlton drought teams and i THOUGHT that the final team was there as the bench was trimmed down to 4 men and Hill wasnt included but now that I have seen the team, Hill is in. So MY BAD!!!

Hill and Suban made the 22 which is great news off the back of injuries to Raines, Anthony and those stupid enough to pick Cousins.
I think there is no need to panic with Raines, if he is out for 3-4 weeks you can afford to stash him on your bench.
Suban, Petrenko and Cheney are getting early opportunities, while Rance could be an elevation to the tigers 22, he was an emergency last night.
Grima is not far off a game at NM, while Broughton will get his chance.
Suckling will get a few early games at the Hawks too, it seems.
So plenty to consider.

thats a good point Hawks 1976. As an adel supporter, I just fear that once Johncock and Symes are back in, Petrenko's spot might be gone but I'm holding on before opening starting to trade.

definitely hold onto raines, he is a better player than his value and will go up once he comes back from injury, just rely on the petrenkos and cheneys u hopefully have on ur bench to carry u through for a couple of weeks
