Exactly why he should tag Martin

Totally against Gibbs tagging Martin. He should be playing basically the exact same game as last week.
He should put a lot of body pressure on Martin as often as he can, but Curnow should have the run with role.
Re: Rd 13: Post Game Patter: Carlton vs GC - ElwoodBlues1 - 06-19-2017
Neither Curnow or Gibbs can mix it with Martin ....we have been trying for years to limit him without success. Gary Ablett jr is a nice clean player but he doesnt have the power of Martin in close and thats where he always gets our players as none can lay a tackle on him.
Maybe Gibbs can play off Martin and hope to cause equal amount of damage but I'd expect Hardwick to tag Gibbs and play defensive forwards on at least Docherty and maybe Simpson..
If Cripps had more pace I would try him on Martin...thought he was down last week and his direct opponent in Lyons was GC's best player....

i would be telling the Bolt to clean up Dusty if he gets the chance, ditto Jones....

Some of our blokes will have to grit their teeth and attempt to tackle him then...1st round they were throwing one arm out or jumping out the road...it was shades of when we played Barry Hall in the bad old days. You have to take the beast head on and show you wont be intimidated...needs a leader to do that....

The Bolt and Dusty tangled in the 1st round and from memory the Bolt didnt want to mix it....bit embarrassing ....

I agree, but we're firmly in the minority. The tagging scragging niggling etc. is seemingly here to stay, by popular demand as much as anything else.
