VFL 2022 Rd 17 Carlton vs Geelong at Ikon - crashlander - 07-15-2022
The Blues take on Geelong at home, in the daytime, no less! A 1435 starting time.
The team is still very much a work in progress, as a lot of good players are unavailable at the moment. But Pitto is back, which is a positive. It will be interesting to see how he meshes with Mirkov.
McGovern's return is also timely, as he provides that little big extra in defence; a strong, fast body who can take huge marks and has real depth in his kicking.
Ed Curnow should be on more time also this week: his time was managed last week and he still got 19 possessions.
Certainly not losing 3 or the four senior emergencies will give us a stronger line-up, but we need something in attack as much as anything. Neither Glass-McCasker nor Josh Cripps is taking the marks a key forward needs, let alone kicking goals. Both really need to lead more, to really get on their bikes. Hopefully Crocker is back, as he was seriously missed last week.

Gov and Pitto seem to have got through OK
Curnow looks to have hurt himself again.
McGovern 17 disposals and kicked a goal late to help win the game. Played mostly in defence
Pittonet 15 disposals and 22 hitouts.
Dow another 30 possession game
Setterfield had 40

If true, i reckon he may have just realised that himself.

We should at least check for a pulse before the vet runs in with the gun…
What’s the injury ?

If it is calf, thats about the worst possible news.
The first time i did it i said it was 'old mans injury' and he's missed the whole season.....and now....does it again.
I love the bloke and the energy he brings to the field and locker room, but everyones time comes to an end eventually.

Dow and LoB a class above. Cahill takes his chances up forward. Ruck was a strenght I thought, and gave Dow silver service treatment.
McG kept in touch and was switched fwd late. He took a nice mark and kicked the goal that wrestled back the lead. Confidence building return at the very least.
In all a good game, despite lapses q2. Would have been quite different if Crocker kicked straight. Hopefully it's the blueprint for our seniors ?

Lets hope as he is shown the door he takes Plowman with him.

As soon as we get our soldiers back Plowman will be permanently stationed in the 2nds. He will never make it against decent competition and I like many shutter to think what he would be like under finals pressure.
