AFL Rd 21 2022 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Brisbane
#61
Silvagni and Dow go into the midfield for mine this week. I'd be asking SOS to do the grunt work to aide Cripps and Walsh. He has excellent hands around the contest, clean too. We don't have Kennedy or Hewett.

Fisher to a wing. Let's see what he's got.

Melbourne screwed up in 2020 finishing 9th after a couple of late bad losses.
Same thing happened to us in the last round of 1997 (the day Lady Di passed away).  Lost by 2pts to the Tigers at Princes Park (after being 5+ goals up), and ended up 11th instead of 8th.
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?

My friend thinks I'm a jinx for Carlton and I just remembered I rocked up to that game after half time.
2012 HAPPENED!!!!!!!

IIRC, we had a good lead at half time but headhunting by our opponents had left us without a bench. I’m guessing that might have been more influential than your presence, MBB Big Grin

Out: Kennedy (inj), Newman (inj), Plowman (omitted).
In:  Brodie Kemp, Caleb Marchbank, Jack Martin, Jack Newnes, Lachie Fogarty, Paddy Dow.

Interchange from:  Jack Martin, Will Setterfield, Corey Durdin, Tom De Koning, Paddy Dow, Lachie Fogarty,Brodie Kemp, Jack Newnes.

The 3 emergencies from that interchange will be anyone's guess.

PS. Good to see JSOS named in the starting 22 up forward.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

Umpire number 22 Nathan Williamson is ready to put the first nail in our coffin.

Reality always wins in the end.

That's just the kind of history I'd be happy for us to repeat.

Keeping together is progress.
