AFL Rd 4 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Fremantle in Adelaide - crashlander - 03-29-2024
A twilight game at the Adelaide Oval against Freo, who are also unbeaten.

Looks like Marchy will miss with concussion, should be an easy swap with either Kemp or Young.

Top four clash on neutral territory.

This was the round last year when it all started to unravel. The Club hasn't won at the Adelaide Oval since 1972. Usually play alright against Fremantle.

Both played reasonably well in the Magoos but Kemp was switched forward. Freo play three KPFs, and Jackson, so we might go with Young.

Young got a fair bit of the ball, but the North key forwards dominated and took big marks, especially after Kemp was moved forward.
Kemp's kicking in defence was ordinary, but his goal was brilliant. He offers more flexibility, but I think Young might come in.

I think freos forwards aren't that tall but have a bit of toe. Will be interesting to see how we go. For mine I'd be bringing back a smaller back or a medium tall for this one. Not enough match ups to be too tall.

Could be a tough week for TDK, Jackson is in good form.
Freo have finally realised smashing Jackson in the ruck trying to win taps means nothing when you have a player with his sort of ground skill and agility. If a fan was naïve enough just to look at the rucks stats it would suggest O'Brien smashed Jackson, but the ruck stats are meaningless, Jackson made O'Brien look like a traffic cone.
When the ball got locked into the Freo F50, Treacy took some of the ruck and Jackson became a mobile 4th KPF in Charlie style.

Remember height is one thing the ability to perform at the level is another.

Next four games - three will be against teams in the top four. If we are deserving of top two finish then next month will shape that.
Freo
Adelaide
