Yep....
Needs a small miracle but still anything can happen he has the raw talent that has stayed raw and hasn't developed.

Coaches and MC better not forget that Carlton will do Carlton things when results dont go our way.

I think that there is a genuine consensus that there is a 'need for speed' against Geelong. Don't know if you can have LOB on the pine 2 weeks in a row...... Might be The Plow with the idea to release DOC into the midfield at the death. Pure speculation!!
Re: AFL Rd 2 2023 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Geelong - Gointocarlton - 03-22-2023
Plow vs Geel = Canon fodder of the Geel fwds.
This is an important game, to be taken seriously we need to be able to beat these sides. Preseason talk about lists, potential etc is over, crap got real last Thurs. Geel may be weakened but we just got worse with Hewett out. I can't help but feeling going on with one Ruck against this mob is a mistake.
I thought we would win this one in a close one, I think the tide has now swung the Premiers way.

Geelong are one of the most efficient teams moving the ball to their forward 50 btw and last week showed we are a mile away from their level.
Nothing is going to change here. Debutants or not - we have our work cut out/

Im tipping Martin and Motlop might have decent games this week...

Worse than the Hewett news, Umpire 22 has been selected for our match >

It is a mistake, but who have we got to come in? Other than Kreuzer, have we had a decent ruckman this century?
