Re: 2017 Rd 9; Pre Game Preparations: Carlton vs Fremantle - ElwoodBlues1 - 05-19-2017
Freo are strong at the clearances about 8th in the comp and we are the worst so I reckon Cunningham might have been included for a few more rotations vs the Freo mids...
Sandilands should win most of the tapwork so we will need some decent planning to try and break even...Dockers are not real big down back so I am a bit disappointed we didnt play Jones to create an uneven matchup and force them to change their team around.
McCarthy is an accurate kick as he showed during the JLT series so he cant be allowed easy possessions within kicking distance....last time we just let him get one on one too often....Walters is the other dangerous forward who needs attention and a player who can match him in the air as he is a good mark for his size...

We bear no resemblance to the team that lost to them in the JLT. Neither do they.
McCarthy has kicked 12. 12 this year so his kicking is now sh1t.

1 change.
OUT: White
IN: Cuningham
Probably the last one i expected to get the gig from that extended bench (well Boeky last, him next
Would've had army in given the deck and the weather. Suits him.
Re: 2017 Rd 9; Pre Game Preparations: Carlton vs Fremantle - blue4life - 05-19-2017
Final team announced and it's Cunningham for White as the only change.
I thought Boekhorst but it's better to give the kid a crack I gurss, we know what Boekhorst is capable of.
Edit :beaten by Krud.

Good luck to Cunners really like him as a player. Reminds me of Dangerfield in some passages of his play in Dangers early years 2009... AFL world didnt really take notice of Danger untill late 2010 early 2011 as a 21 year old. Cunners just needs that one game where the footy world stands up and says "will be a good player" I think he is close so good luck to him.

Or a bloke in scintillating career-best form in the VFL, after being moved from the forward line, and can't fit into the side. Might mean a list that's building depth.

Looks like it might be cool, wet, and windy tomorrow in Perth.
Maybe that's to our advantage.
Go new Blues

Fair play to the lad to work as hard as he has.

And backed it up with his best game for us ever.

WOw! Big call likening Cuningham to an early Dangerfield. Hope you're right but I've seen precious little from him to suggest he's a future Dangerfield. Danger has some mongrel about him and has always had an obsessive love of the contest... Cuningham seems rather timid when it comes to putting his body on the line, and that's not to mention his terrible inconsistency. When things go right for him, he can ran and carry very, very nicely but it's so infrequent. As I say, I hope I'm very wrong and have to eat loads of humble pie.
