Harry has a real advantage in height providing we can get it down forward in a decent fashion. You would think Young will get Lynch and Plowman might get Reiwoldt...Balta doesnt really have a matchup unless our Jack was to follow him around but the Richmond player is about 3 yards quicker than any of our defenders and for that reason I dont see S.Durdin playing on him and I'm struggling to see a direct opponent other than Lynch for S.Durdin especially with Soldo now out and no resting true ruckman other than Nank who will ruck most of the game..
I'm a lot more confident now that Dusty and Soldo are out. I think we'll get the job done but I would be more confident if we had Kemp or Stocker in the 22 in place of Boyd ... who will probably play a blinder now :
Sam Durdin reminds of that other Sam; Rowe, who did a great job even if most supporters had their hearts in their mouths every time he got near the pill :o

EB....reckon we just have to play to our strengths which is in the midfield and our tall forwards. We never really seemed to get into top gear last week through the middle against Essendon but got a feeling Voss will have them up and going tonight, especially for Crippa's 150th.

I know that the MCG has incredible drainage but Vossy should mandate long stops tonight.

During a broadcast game, BT asked a recently retired player who was a co-commentator or boundary rider why players weren’t ordered to wear boots with long stops and he was flummoxed when he was told they don’t exist. The recently retired player claimed they all wear moulded stops and that’s it. Can’t comment from my own experience. Like most, I only own 1 pair and they’re moulded. But I’m not a professional player.

A quick Google search produced many football boots with screw in stops. Some are metal and wouldn’t be permitted.
There are also moulded sole boots with longer stops.
I guess it will depend on the boot contract.

I sensed a fair degree of frustration from Vossy last game re our clearance domination ( or lack of it) and he didn't seem that impressed by the fact that we made up by winning based on turnovers. I suspect we will be back to our more familiar style v the Tiggers. Cripps was more positive though in saying that we added another dimension to our game. Be interesting.

Screw ins are less common these days, but they also have hybrids.
Some with moulded and studs that screw in. About 50-50 split.

Garry Lyon is extremely bullish about our chances both for this game and for the rest if the year. I dont quite share his optimism but he was up and about talking about us this morning on SEN. For perspective, he talked about need superstars to be successful, he said we have:
Curnow
McKay
Weitering
Cripps
Walsh
There's 5 straight off the bat. He then spoke glowingly of our contested ball work, clearance work and transition from defence to attack (which he referred to as elite).
If we add:
Saad
Doc
George
Kennedy
Cerra
TDK
Who are all high quality
Then there are emerging ones like:
Young
Durdin
Owies
Fisher
When you look at it like that coupled with a revitalised coaching group, Lyon was right in saying "there is no limit with Carlton".

We used to be able to 'bank' milestone games. Hope we can get back to those days! Do it for Crippa!
