AFL Rd 10 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Sydney

[Baggers]

The Fluffy Ducks midfield is deadly, and is where they get create many of their goals. Our midfield will have their work cut out for them controlling and then hurting this mob the other way. Hewett and Chugga will be critical in respect to defence at stoppages. Pity Cerra is injured.

They're good but we're better. Only thing keeping them in it is the SCG mini ground factor.

Gerard Healy is adamant that the smallness of the SCG is both overstated and a relic of the 80's.

I think in the last couple of years we have been honest.

Better perhaps, but if they are being honest they actually are saying they have no idea how long he will be out....

Matthew Cottrell (foot)

- Underwent scans yesterday which revealed a navicular stress reaction in his left foot
- Club will work through a rehabilitation plan over the coming weeks
- Availability: To be reassessed following the Club’s Round 14 bye

Not sure I want to see Williams play down back with no suitable opposition....

I wasn't saying that he needs to play down back, just that he might need to play. Running out of soldiers.

Who comes in for Cottrell?

The outs last week were Fantasia, Young, Cuningham and Williams.
Cunners is injured.
Young is a different type.
So pick 1 out of Fantasia and Williams......or someone else from the 2's. Binns?

Fogarty

He was listed as 1-2 weeks away in the latest injury report.
Thats some miraculous recovery

Appreciate he might have to play but I wouldn't want him down back and maybe a sub role would suit..

Healy would say that (for the record I'm a fan).

Where do you play him? Cant defend to save himself. The midfield experiment has already failed once. Maybe fwd?
