AFL Rd 1 2023 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Richmond

[LP]

Eds inclusion must be tactical as his pre season form was ordinary.
Probably tells you a bit about Dow and Obriens future too imo given they have been left out in such an important game.
The trust in Plowman seems to have evaporated as well, the coaching career of Voss started to slide in his 2nd year at Brisbane and expectations are high for finals in 2023.  He doesn't want any passengers and you know a player like Ed will give you effort and accountability unlike a few others.

Is Ed the special case defender selected just to tag Dusty out of F50?

But looking at our team, I'd suggest we are hoping Dusty is starved of opportunity, we are setup to intercept across the HBF and not for defence at FB.
