AFL Rd 23 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs West Coast in Perth

[Baggers]

He has been the sub 4 times.

Issue with our small forwards is they just don't get enough of it.  Motlop 8-10 times a game.  Owies 8-9.  Durdin 5-7.  Fantasia 7-8.

Either by design or by ability they all have no impact offensively.    Owies to his credit is an accurate shot at goal and makes the most of his opportunities.    Unlike the rest of our forward line. 

Not so sure it's the fault of the small forwards. Our entire front half offense seems to be to 'kick it to Charlie, kick it to H,' and opposition side know that and set up accordingly and defend accordingly. Our small forwards try to get to the feet of H and Charlie, but, again, opposition defenses put plenty of time into being at the feet of H and Charlie to negate or shark it from our small forwards.

Vossy made that same error at BrisVegas... everything was about Jono B and Fev.

Tomorrow we get a look at our side with a smaller forward line and how the blokes up field respond to that. High kicks into our forward line will be picked up nicely by the Weagles defense. Will be intriguing to see our offensive strategy tomorrow arvo.
