Pre Game Prognostications: AFL 2020 Rd 18: Carlton vs Brisbane

And if we are going to play Cripps forward, please play him out of the goal square. His confidence in goal kicking is shot - the closer the better IMO.
We used to have a brilliant record at responding to matches like this. But that was a long time ago. Lately we've served up some of our worst performances for retirements and such.

I will hope the lads respond for Simmo: he deserves to go out on a high. But I don't expect to see it. Not enough spirit in the team of late.
Live Long and Prosper!

I don't think Fish will play either. running around with one arm on Sunday.

Couldn't possibly let Cameo Cuningham run around again. McGov redeemed himself a fraction with some 2nd half efforts against the Crows.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

Did better when moved to the midfield, where we recruited him.

Docherty & Fisher confirmed out....and Martin a likely in.

I'd give Cottrell another run.....play him on Mitch Robinson just so we can see the similarities!

Kennedy in for McGovern.

2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time

Sorry, but cannot be relied upon. Sadly, hasn't any mental toughness or consistency or reliability. Too flashy and seems incapable of hunting his own aggott. I'd trade him, might be able to swap him.

Trade him for what?  Half a tube of linament?Fair deal I would say.  Great pity he has the tools but just not the desire or application.
