AFL Rd 21 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Collingwood

[pinot]

With Cunners, Corey Durdin, Fantasia, Zac out - door opens for Jack Martin for one of his final games for the club.

[kruddler]

The problem is we have been in very winnable position each game.
We fail to put teams to the sword. We have for about 20 years.
It’s a problem. A problem not easily overcome IMO

It's a problem, sure.

But would you rather that problem
Or
NOT being in a winnable positions and getting blown out of the water?

It can be a quick turnaround from here.

The next 3 games are  a concern in varying degrees, very hard, tough, demanding encounters. Keep our fingers crossed that we get through this block without too many further injuries. None are certain.

Daniel hoyne not worried well i am a worried our long bomb game plan is main problem

leaking too many goals is our problem.

Ill bet you whatever you like that if he plays this week, he'll be out next week with an injury. The bloke cannot be depended on and must be moved on along with Cunningham and Marchbank. We need to replace them with some reliable and durable back ups, not neccessarily superstars (although it would be nice) players who you can rely upon week to week.

I hope you’re proved wrong G2C … but I wouldn’t put money on it.

I think that we might have to add the Durdin cousins to that list.  Williams and McGovern are fragile too but they do manage to string together several games of pretty good footy.  Depth is only depth if it’s durable.

In : Boyd, Acres, McKay, Martin

Out : Young, Carroll J, Cowan, Cuningham

Also Jack Martin's 150th game.

[kruddler]

Thats pretty close to our strongest possible side IMO.

Swap Pitto and TDK.
Maybe throw in Williams.
Wouldn't change anything else

Yep.

Harry > Young
Acres > Cunningham
Boyd > Cowan
Martin > Carroll

If you only play 15mins does that count as a game?
