AFL Rd 9 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Melbourne

[Baggers]

For me it:

FB Nic Newman Jacob Weitering Jordan Boyd
HB Brodie Kemp Mitch McGovern Caleb Marchbank
C Blake Acres Patrick Cripps Oliver Hollands
HF Matt Cottrell Charlie Curnow David Cuningham
FF Tom De Koning Harry McKay Matt Owies
F Marc Pittonet Adam Cerra Sam Walsh
INT George Hewett Matthew Kennedy Elijah Hollands Corey Durdin
SUB Lachlan Cowan or Alex Cincotta

IN McGovern Kemp Marchbank Hollands
OUT Williams Fantasia Young Cowan or Cincotta

Completely new HB line
Ollie back in on a wing
We played the two rucks, no Harry and won that epic final.
We had Doc and Saady though.
Durdin Cunningham Elijah, consider yourselves lucky. Voss might not be as kind to you.

Like it, GTC... however... no way would I bring in Marchbank until he's regained match form in the Magoos. I'd back Cincotta and Cowan down back, but give them license to run-off their opponents.

Kemp for moi is a quandary. I love his attack and offensive game. Too good to be in the Magoos. Stubbornly refusing to try him elsewhere on the ground may be an issue.

Agree with no Young in your side. Too limited and one-dimensional. Understand including him because of his height, and he competes quite well in that regard, but he offers little else.

Ollie Hollands didn't front up for the Magoos game... if he does come in on the wing, perhaps a defensive role on Ed? Must say I prefer Acres and Cotters on the wings.
