He's not great but thats a bit of run off half back that they miss and he's also one of those solid but unspectacular triers in the nic Newman mould.Parish, Duursma, and Hobbs out still also weakens their midfield and this is where we should win the game comfortably imo.

I wonder if Cincotta gets the job on Merrett this week?

He’s a test.
Re: AFL Rd 13 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Essendon - LP - 06-04-2024
So if Pitto passes his test is he in with TDK?
I'm torn, but I think a rested Goldstein with 2MP might be a step too far. 2MP is not a great ruck, but his size makes him a handful in our D50 which will drag a solo TDK to the wrong end of the ground for our liking. But I get the concerns about the CheatsFC run and carry and the berserker game style.
Also, when you have an opposition coach known as "The Tunnelling King", you know your talls aren't going to have their usual advantage.

If Draper was playing along with Goldstein. then I would have gone with Pittonet and TDK.
FWIW I'd be backing TDK to jump all over Goldstein in the middle and give us first use.
