We are in the window.  Its not a false dawn.  It's here people.  You need a bit of luck but as we get more players fit and firing towards the back end of the season will dictate how well we go and even then we could potentially still win it.

Anyone anywhere anytime.  #blueflaggers!!!

It is weird. It's been such a long time in the making. We've had many many embarrassing years. Yet slowly but surely, the dead wood was pruned and quality leaders were assembled and backed in.

This is definitely the new Blues

Quite a few of our goals were kicked on the non-preferred. TDK, Cottrell, Charlie... this skill is definitely improving

Pinot....not sure they'll risk Cerra....only been a week and a bit since the hamstring strain even though it was a mild one. Love him back but the midfield can do this one without him IMO. Cincotta is the likely one in for Williams if he doesn't come up.

Didn't watch the VFL game but Moir amongst the goals. Having TDK forward probably makes it a bit harder for Moir given he's more of a mid-size/3rd tall.

Two weeks in a row though our opposition has been very accurate compare to us. Some bread an butter type misses need to be cleaned (eg Durdin running into goal directly in front. Charlie also missed a couple where he had more time that he thought. But yes, we are much better than years gone by.

Yeah Moir had a good game yesterday. Three classy goals from all sorts of angles and 7 tackles.

Bought alot of aggression to his game yesterday. Another 2-3 games like that and will be in the mix.

Fantasia might be ready for a spell in the 2's.

Hardly had any footy but ironically it was probably his best game, even so 6 disposals isn't going to cut it, he needs to find a way to get involved in more chains of play.

Of course it might be his job to otherwise get in the way of opponents or drag them away from the footy.

Just makes me feel a bit sorry for Fogarty, kid did nothing wrong and fractured his wrist, can't take a break.

Fantasia...
He's played 6 games.
He averages 7.6 touches and 1.1 tackle.
He's kicked 2.2 goals.behinds, 5 goal assists.

Durdin...
He's played 5 games.
He averages 5.7 touches and 2.8 tackles.
He's kicked 5.2 goals.behinds, 1 goal assist.

Owies...
He's played 6 games.
He averages 8.2 touches and 1.8 tackles.
He's kicked 8.4 goals.behinds, 0 goal assists

Thats a big enough sample size for mine.

Fantasia is almost 29.
He is being outplayed by a 22yo in Durdin, and a former late starting rookie basketballer who is 27 in Owies.
Play Moir or Motlop depending on who is fit and in form and give him a spell in the 2's.


Re: AFL Rd 7 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Geelong at the MCG - pinot - 04-23-2024

The quicker we get Motlop, Moir and Martin into the team the better we will be.
