Tom Hafey was renowned for saying the one non negotiable to being a long term successful team is every single player must give 100% all the time regardless of the different levels of ability.
Want to see Charlie run his player ragged and attack every contest like it matters. He has athletic ability very few defenders can go through. He is not doing that at the moment and stats showing how good his year is or saying other teams would want him in a heartbeat doesn't change my point.
Our flag hopes rests on every player buying in 100% from the best player to the worst player. Collingwood were not the best team last year ability wise but they took the cup home.
David King has an interesting take on how Charlie’s teammates aren’t making life easy for him and what Harry, Owies, etc need to do to allow Charlie have greater impact. King also details a new weapon Charlie has added to his toolkit:

Makes a lot more sense than swagger, head wobbles and an eye on the Coleman.

Our line-up:
B: [17] Brodie Kemp, [23] Jacob Weitering, [24] Nic Newman
HB: [42] Adam Saad, [11] Mitch McGovern, [5] Adam Cerra
C: [4] Oliver Hollands, [9] Patrick Cripps, [46] Matthew Cottrell
HF: [20] Elijah Hollands, [10] Harry McKay, [7] Matthew Kennedy
F: [8] Lachie Fogarty, [30] Charlie Curnow, [3] Jesse Motlop
R: [27] Marc Pittonet, [18] Sam Walsh, [29] George Hewett
Int: [2] Lachlan Cowan, [39] Alex Cincotta, [28] David Cuningham, [44] Matthew Owies, [16] Jack Carroll
Em: [37] Jordan Boyd, [25] Jaxon Binns, [33] Lewis Young
[1] Cerra was OK at HBF after half time, but he was ordinary in the 1st half. Not a position he knows a lot about. I'd rather have Boyd in.
[2] What does Binns have to do to get a game? get 50 possessions?
[3] Our defence looks a little more predictable, for us, than last week. At least we have enough taller players to do that jobs available.
[3] We will miss Acres. He was down last week, but ...

I reckon PA have a real problem with small forwards - their backline is full of slowish big blokes, mostly average apart from Alir.
This game will be won by quick movement of the ball into our forward line - Charlie and Harry won't find it easy to do much out-muscling, their job will be to provide a contest and stop intercepts. I'd love to think Owies, Motlop, Fogarty and Cunningham will have a picnic down there.
If we go slow and drop it onto the forwards heads, we will be slaughtered.
Re: AFL Rd 20 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Port Adelaide - Professer E - 07-25-2024
If they pay holding against Aliir Charlie will kick 10.

In terms of form Owies and BigH are on top of the ground at the moment, maybe Charlie's happy to roll them into the pointy end of the season full of confidence. Or maybe it's the MC taking some of the pressure of Charlie to be a solo match winner, sharing the load as it were!
Over the recent period we've also seen Williams come into F50 and change the dynamic significantly, a lot of those crumbing type ground ball goals that fell on Charlie have been Williams in recent weeks.
It will be interesting to see what happens this week with McGovern back in, because so much of what happens going into F50 starts off with decisions made in D50.
