I would think it would be Martin in for Carroll. I think he has been struggling a little bit over the past couple of weeks with the intensity of AFL football and he may be a bit knocked about. I think he is a long term prospect but he probably needs a bit of a break. I thought that Martin had recently been really trying to impact on the game a bit more than he has in the past before he got injured. He seems to have got the message that having a highlights reel is different from being an effective football. He would also give us a bit more marking up forward.
Collingwood's rucks aren't as good as when Grundy is available so DeKonning could be pretty effective in this game while our second ruck options may not be as outgunned and this could make our midfield a bit more effective. In the past the has been the midfield has been the key to Collingwood but this may not be as true now that FIGJAM isn't coaching. When they get on a roll they are frenetic but we should be able to dominate them. If we turn up to play as we have over the past two weeks then it should be a fairly comfortable win.
