Rd 17 : Pre Game polite and refined discourse - Blues v Eagles
#46
Carlton

B: Sam Docherty, Sam Rowe, Kade Simpson.
HB: Zach Tuohy, Lachie Plowman, Jacob Weitering.
C: Dennis Armfield, Patrick Cripps, Sam Kerridge.
HF: Jed Lamb, Matthew Wright, Jack Silvagni.
F: Liam Sumner, Simon White, Andrew Phillips.
Foll: Matthew Kreuzer, Bryce Gibbs, Ed Curnow.
Int: Kristian Jaksch, Nick Graham, Dylan Buckley, Charlie Curnow, Mark Whiley, Jason Tutt, Liam Jones

In: Kristian Jaksch, Nick Graham, Dylan Buckley, Charlie Curnow, Mark Whiley, Jason Tutt, Liam Jones.

Out: Andrejs Everitt (Omitted), Levi Casboult (Suspension), Andrew Walker (Knee), Dale Thomas (Calf)

We will miss Daisy. He has generally played well when we have. We will miss Casboult, but we need to see of Jaksch or Jones can do the job.
I don't like White as a key forward. he has a big heart but he isn't a key forward.
I would not play Charlie Curnow. He is not fit enough yet, even though he is the future. I am happy to see him in contention, but think he needs more time to find form. He is not going to get his confidence up being outgunned.
I hope Nick Graham plays: he needs to be in the midfield.
Walker was lucky to be injured: stopped him being dropped. But then, it might be this knee injury which is making him as ineffective lately as he has been. Whatever is the case, we don't want to see him back until he is fully fit and finding some form.
The same goes for Everitt. He needs to go back and show the VFL and the club that he wants to be part of our future. he has the talent. It is time he took the game between the teeth and did something about it, even though he does not have a great record at VFL level.
Sumner and Lamb were probably lucky that others were injured. They may have futures, but neither is getting the ball enough or doing enough with it when they get it. Maybe a week or two in the VFL would do them some good.

The Weagles normally kill us in the middle, with Nic Nat being the difference. They get first use and we are in trouble. Nic Nat is not there, but even Lycett beat our ruckmen when last we met. We really need to get our midfield up and going, or our defence will be under more pressure than it can handle.

West Coast Eagles

B: Brad Sheppard, Will Schofield, Thomas Barrass.
HB: Elliot Yeo, Jeremy McGovern, Shannon Hurn.
C: Chris Masten, Matt Priddis, Jamie Cripps.
HF: Mark Hutchings, Jack Darling, Mark LeCras.
F: Josh Hill, Josh J. Kennedy, Patrick McGinnity.
Foll: Scott Lycett, Andrew Gaff, Luke Shuey.
Int: Mitchell Brown, Jack Redden, Sharrod Wellingham, Eric Mackenzie, Lewis Jetta, Sam Butler, Jackson Nelson

Apart from Nic Nat, their list couldn't get a lot better. If we are to win (or even get close) we need to beat them in the middle, so starving their forwards and we need to stop turning the ball over so much. 11 goals from turnovers last week! Cut them out and we win easily!
Live Long and Prosper!
