Rd 19: Pre Game Irritations: Carlton vs Geelong - crashlander - 07-23-2017
Not looking forward to this one. We matched up well against Geelong last year when we had a decent proportion f our list available.
That is not the case at the moment. Losing to Brisbane yesterday defies description.

If ACoS is back....

Marchbank, Byrne and White will be ready to come back if required

Player Injury Duration
Ciaran Byrne Groin 1 week
Tom Williamson Back Test
David Cuningham Groin Test
Dale Thomas Calf Test
Alex Silvagni Knee 4 weeks
Patrick Kerr Hip Season
Caleb Marchbank Shoulder 1 week
Ed Curnow Larynx 3 weeks
Simon White Knee 1 week
Dylan Buckley Hamstring 3 weeks
Andrew Phillips Foot Season
Patrick Cripps Leg Season
Sam Rowe Knee Season
This was last week's injury list.
Alex Silvagni has 2 - 3 weeks left , depending how he recovers. We could do with him.
Caleb Marchbank is a high probability of being available. The only question would be whether he goes straight back into the 1sts or has a week in the VFL. My preferred option would be a week in the VFL to get rid of the cobwebs, but our practice in recent times has to bringing guys back directly.
Simon White could also be ready, as could Ciaran Byrne. Both of these are senior chances, but have a higher probability of starting in the 2nds.
Ed Curnow's '3 weeks' has been about the same for 3 weeks. This has been an injury that has been hard to shake. However, if he can get over the present plateau, he may be back quite quickly. But I wouldn't want to put my money on it.
The problem is that had too many players who had very poor games against Brisbane and far too few who had anything like a decent game against North Ballarat.

I have good seats for this game.
If nothing else I will have a decent view of how well Geelong are likely to beat us.
Hopefully we traded for 4 premiership points to go with the Billie Smedts, Zach Tuohy trade.

Geelong are soft as butter and are a two man show. However, we would need to be 500% better than yesterday to even get close. Letting an oppo like the Bears get nearly 100 possessions more is unacceptable. Gibbs owes us big time after that shitful performance. Perhaps he is lowering his trade value to the Crows.

Gibbs often doesn't respond well to a hard tag. The MC should really have a Plan B to deal with that. I know they tried playing him as a permanent forward but that just took him right out of the game.
We seem to match up better against the Cats but I'm not all that hopeful

We actually won the week after the Brisbane disaster last year. Admittedly we kept Melbourne out of the 8 by beating them so it wasn't exactly Geelong, but it does show a week is a long time in football.
