AFL Rd 15 2024 Post-Game Prognostications Carlton vs Geelong

[ElwoodBlues1]

Cant see Walsh milking a free by using his head as a tamping tool for the MCG surface.....its true other players like May have been trying to milk frees by giving the appearance their head has been driven into the turf but Walsh isnt one of them.
Dangerfield has form for careless tackles and attacks on the ball and shouldnt be given the elite player get out of jail free card.
The sling tackle, head hitting the ground free is another area like HTB where umpires lack consistency and have to guess when they are on the wrong side of play and cant see the head properly.

Dangerflog is involved in so many "accidents", we should remain him Mr Damage!

we played 4 q ( we kicked 1,6 in 3rd) but 80 tackles is huge for our team

Yes, the best win under Voss IMO.

Disagree.
Walsh has definitely done OT in the past as has quite a few of our boys. It's been highlighted on the tv as well.

That being said, that Walsh incident was not one of them. Not even close.

MEMO TO SAM WALSH : stop slamming your head into the turf when tackled trying to milk a free kick, it worked against Dangerfield but the others made you look silly, you are better than that.

What rubbish. As if a player is going to smack his own head into the ground with a full paced tackle. Deliberate attempt at concussion.....haha. Seriously!

Cerra - walk up start
Martin - banished forever
Motlop - can he force Owies or Durdin out ??
Carroll - what position should he play ??
Marchbank - banished forever
Pittonett - only in an emergency
Cuningham - traded out at season's end
Cottrell - there is a place for him
Young - only in an emergency

After the way Martin played in that 2nd half of last season he'll be in soon. Banished? Don't think so. He was a very important cog late last year. We can tell what Carlton think of him. They put him straight in last time after such a long break. Add he and Cerra in, for Fantasia and Durdin, and that tops us off. We should play Martin a game or two in the twos first though this time. That'll be some forward line. Motlop may not come in with the way Owies is going.

I wouldn't drop anybody for Martin, don't trust him.

Agree Prof...he goes ok first up from a spell usually but I cant see why we would try and fix a team that doesnt need fixing.
He isnt an automatic anymore given the form of E Hollands and Owies and I think he should settle for being a injury replacement and backup player until needed or he plays a few ressies games and dominates to force his way in.
Be Cerra and Cottrell back in when fully fit for Carroll and Durdin if I was making the selections.

[BluePhantom]

Don't fix what ain't broke!
Other than Cerra for Durdin.  ^-^
