AFL Rd 5 2022 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Port Adelaide - crashlander - 04-08-2022
Sunday at 1340, a rather odd time. The game is at the MCG, which is positive for us.
Do we fear the wounded Power? They have been embarrassed in recent weeks. But Wines will be out for them.

No doubt they will be tough given their present situation but I think Hinkley must be on the edge of getting the boot and Kochie will be sharpening the axe..

Having Pittonet in for this game could be the difference between winning and not.
Having Cripps out is a huge loss for us.

Kennedy and Cerra need to lift. I am sure they will.
Fisher , Martin and Setterfield on thin ice.
Stocker, Dow, Durdin and Kemp ins for me.
Maybe coaching group will see this performance as an aberration and give them one more chance. Interesting to see how this one pans out.

Wines a definite out, and it looks like Lycett will be as well, so the only ruck option they appear to have is a first-gamer. On the flipside, Robbie Gray is back in.
If we don't win this, all of the good work in the first 3 weeks will largely be evaporated. Freo in Perth the week after, and we may be back in the pack on 3-3.
But let's be positive and say we'll be 5-1 !

On the flipside, Robbie Gray is back in.I'd say Sam Hayes will play his first game as you suggested in the ruck and they will probably include Finlayson to co ruck as well as play forward. The latter kicked goals in the SANFL last game and Hayes is a decent size kid but vs Pittonet will find it tough going.

With Wines and Lycett out we would have no excuses, Port are miserable away from home and really undermanned.

Gonna take a lot to crawl back from 0-5 and an already poor percentage if port lose.

I have never forgotten the semi-final against Geelong in 1994 when they went in without Couch, Hocking and Brownless, yet they tore us a new one.
Adversity can be a strong motivating force, and there are no easy games any more.

Pretty sure Bairstow might've been also missing that day Tonyo?
