I suspect it will be run and gun at all costs. Lets hope they stuff it up.
Richmond finished with 8 wins and a percentage of 79.5 coming in at an unfamiliar 13th
Carlton finished with 7 wins and a percentage of 79.3 finishing 14th.
We will send out 3 (Macreadie possibly) first games and another 3 with less than 10 games experience. They have a first gamer in Butler but really a seasoned and experienced team with a few new faces, Prestia being the best. Nankervis who is being talked up, will be shown how to play first ruck by Kruezer.
We don't have an identity yet, whereas Richmond is trying to change theirs. Carlton have the chance to ruin their season in the first game by applying pressure, something that was lacking in the JLT series. If we stop the "Tiger running game" they will go back into their shells and kick backwards sideways and miss targets.
If we can get our run and link up play going, as well as first use by Cripps then we may have Hardwickes neck on a swivel.
