AFL Rd 10 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Sydney

[LP]

Mitch McGovern played 22 games last season.

McGovern was tunnelled twice in his return game, landing heavily on his lower back / gluteus on one occasion and getting a mild corky in the other. If he was a Handbagger I wonder what Scott would have to say?

I'd like to remind fans that our return to form late last season basically aligned with the return of Martin, was that cause or coincidence?

Fogarty came in the following week against the Suns. His last game was Fremantle this season.

[kruddler]

Yep, the turnaround came when we went smaller and with more run.
Martin, Cuningham and Fogarty (and even Fisher) become staples of the side and we couldn't lose.

Take a few of them out of the side and all of a sudden we can't win.

[Gointocarlton]

Last year what impressed me most was the how we managed to "find a way" every week. To say we need to "find a way" tomorrow night is an understatement, personally I dont fancy our chances given how well the Swans are travelling.

in Williams Fantasia Carroll Marchbank
out Cerra Cottrell Martin Cowan
Pitto named but surely won't play

[blueday]

How does Cowan get omitted for Williams??

in Williams Fantasia Carroll Marchbank
out Cerra Cottrell Martin Pitto

Probably no other options all things considered.

out Cerra Cottrell Martin Pitto

This is wrong.

Pitto stays in (for now), Cowan is out.

[Blue Moon]

Cowan has been quiet over the past two weeks and Williams is seen as a rebounding defender who can deliver the ball. I think Kemp will play forward. If Pittonett doesn't play I think Young will, but I think Pittonett will play. I think Fantasia will be the Sub.

[LP]

After last week I'm not surprised Cowan is an out, looked like he needed a rest no matter what fans think.

If they four coming in a fit, and if Pitto is right to go, then the side looks better than I had feared.

Time for Orazio to stand up in Cottrell's absence.

Elijah might get a bit more midfield time in Cerra's absence, I think it will be a closer game than sceptics imagine.
