AFL Rd 10 2023 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Collingwood

[Gointocarlton]

Need more than one player on Nick, his running is off the charts. Cottrell has struggled keeping up with Josh in the past and you need a few players to work them over. I like the idea of someone who can punish Nick for not defending  and force Collingwood to change their plans.
It's the pace and ball movement of Collingwood that kills you, they always have that overlap runner and I think that's why the Crows were able to almost match them because they are young and have leg speed to keep up.
We could do with a wet day to make it more contested and slow the game up.

I tend to think they dont care if he doesn't defend, the maths says he does more good than harm. I think you need to limit the good. I'd back Cottrell in to keep up with him all day and hurt him offensively also.
