AFL Rd 19 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs North Melbourne

[crashlander]

Playing the Roos again. They are a better team now than they were last time.

[madbluboy]

Bring back Fantasia.

[Gointocarlton]

Selection will be interesting this week. I hope the MC do their homework better this week.

[RiverRat]

No Hewitt; no midfield.  Bring back George.

[PaulP]

Bring back Fantasia.

Vossy was obviously resting his most important underrated player to have him primed for finals.

Bad jokes aside, I thought our small forwards played their worst games for some time. I wonder if the sacrificial game Voss asks Fantasia to play makes these guys' jobs a little easier ?

No Hewitt; no midfield.  Bring back George.

I guess we’ll find out that answer in about an hours time

No Hewitt; no midfield.  Bring back George.

Did ok in the VFL did Hewett and should be an automatic in....

Did ok in the VFL did Hewett and should be an automatic in....

I thought Hewett won a lot of footy, but like Walsh yesterday did nothing damaging with it, and "coughed it up" a few too many times.

It's a problem for the MC.

But the Dogs practising that hip drop type tackle clouds the issue, it's an awful trend, dogs in name and dogs in nature.

In the olden days of rugby, the counter practise was to run off by deliberately lifting your heels high, if they get the tackle wrong you either cop them in the nuts or under the chin.

Young has been good in the VFL and might be time to try him again. Plus, he gives ruck back up playing one ruck. Motlop, Hewett, Young, Cunningham, Binns in. Out Marchbank, Pitto, Cottrell and Ollie, plus Williams, who is injured.

[WASurfer]

Hopefully Gov is right to go and comes straight back in for Marchbank.

Williams out injured and Ollie and Cotters definitely need a run in the two's to get some ball. I'd have Hewett and Kennedy both in the 22 this week and Motlop in for Williams.
