Tend to agree, I think we can beat EFC without Harry and I was interested to see that Hardwick wanted Lynch to have the extra week for Richmond and err on the side of caution. Harry to me is similar and I'd be thinking one risk vs reward player in Marchbank is enough this week..

If the medical staff pass Harry fit to play, he gets through tomorrow’s training, and he says that he’s good to go, then he’s good to go.
Yep, many times these injuries are repaired and as strong as they will ever get after just 2 or 3 weeks, then it's about managing confidence, pain / inflammation and expectations.

It's quite common for there to be some ongoing niggles, so we should not expect a 100% seamless return even if BigH waits another week or two, it's just the way it goes.

McKay is playing!

There are strategies that will limit how bad this will be for H. 

I.e.  Play him one out at full forward.  Instruct him to lead in straight lines only at whatever pace he is comfortable with.  How he is feeling is obviously a factor and we do have a sub that can come in at a moments notice.

Having his name on the team sheet is a strategic advantage, and having him on the field even if he is a witches hat, will still give the opposition defenders a headache.

Agree Thry....leave him close to goal and let Charlie and Silvagni and even Martin roam around further up the ground. Essendon don't have two quality key defenders so will be scratching to cover McKay and Curnow.

"Mid-season draftees Sam Durdin and Will Hayes are set to feature for Carlton’s VFL team at Windy Hill on Saturday."

Doesn't look like Sam D will feature this week. Probably makes a bit of sense given that we already have 2 tall inclusions on a night that is likelyu to be slippery.....

Interesting to hear Voss mention that BigH set himself to return this week, and made it happen!

That's a positive, I think! :o

Nothing, and I mean nothing, is more important in my universe than Carlton defeating Sheedy's Cheats!

With McKay coming in DeKoning can push back when Silvagni is rucking.

I'm sure the Bomber defensive coach just got a headache he didn't expect.


Re: AFL Rd 13 2022 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Essendon - madbluboy - 06-09-2022

Who will McKay come in for?

Marchbank for Weitering
Kennedy for Dow
McKay for ?
