AFL Rd 5 2022 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Port Adelaide

[Baggers]

I'm not a critic nor a fan of Plowman. As objective as I can be, the bloke does seem to suffer from too few strings to his bow. He gives his all and in certain circumstances is reliable, but possibly too easily exposed.

Parks deserved to be picked. Still a little rough around the edges but is a competitive beast, and we love that.

Stocks probably needs another week in the Magoos... too early for recall.

What is voss seeing that most do not? 

Perhaps we need to remember that Vossy & Co. have only been there 5 minutes and still need time to learn about certain blokes. He's certainly giving them every opportunity. If Fisher has 'peaked'... he's on borrowed time.

We've one of the longest injury lists in the comp. Once these blokes are up and about, our game day 23 may look very different: Stocker, Honey, Motlop, McGovern, Kemp, Marchbank (if he gets past glassman syndrome), Cuningham (IF he continues on from where he left off and makes a full recovery from that knee), Carroll and Philp.

Ed C might be nearing the end. Mirkov is a diamond in the rough. Willo needs to make another step up.

My fingers are crossed for Young and Omac. A versatile tall defender may well end up being an end of season priority.

The coach's box battle on Sunday may well be intriguing.

Though undoubtedly very talented, Cerra needs to put more ticker into his game. And to say that Martin needs to lift (big time) is an understatement.
