New Look Blues Up Against Rookie Swans
By Old Dark Navys February 21 2004
2003 form should have little bearing on today's round 1 clash between Sydney and Carlton in the Wizard Cup as Carlton have filled their side with new 'old' players while Sydney are carrying a few injuries and are using the occasion to blood a few youngsters.

2003 form should have little bearing on today's round 1 clash between Sydney and Carlton in the Wizard Cup as Carlton have filled their side with new 'old' players while Sydney are carrying a few injuries and are using the occasion to blood a few youngsters.
The upshot of all this is that both teams have vastly different expectations for the pre-season cup. Carlton are in dire need of a win to give their players and supporters some much needed confidence while Sydney are honing their squad for a tilt at the big time when the premiership season commences. A loss here for the Blues albeit on enemy soil would still prove to be devastating for the hopes of all and sundry especially coach Denis Pagan who has done all the hard trading and drafting work but has his fingers crossed that his strategy has some merit.
