We're supposedly not relying on individuals.

The counter argument is that you can't maintain the level of intensity and pressure for an extended period.
At some stage that takes both a mental and physical toll.
Given we have a few players missing I'm more than comfortable with this result.
They have everything to play for.
The old "you shouldn't flirt with form" is just a cliche like "one week at a time".
We'll be a different side in two weeks time.

I'm not referring to players that are spent but still busting their nut. I'm talking about a pre engineered mindset that instructs players to go a little easy.

Outs: Durdin, Dow, Fisher, Marchbank
In: Motlop, Kennedy, Cripps, Docherty
Sub: Dow
—
Docherty can give us more than Fisher can
Kennedy can give us more than Dow - especially in finals - bigger body
Re: AFL Rd 24 2023 In Game Angst Carlton vs GWS - PaulP - 08-27-2023
Dow has been good. A real shame if he gets dropped IMO.
