VFL 2021 Rd 2: Carlton vs Brisbane

[crashlander]

The game is on at 11:00 at Prince park (Ikon Oval) on Saturday.
Our team:
Backs: Cody Hirst  Ed Delany  Ryley Stoddart
Half-backs:  Cooper Stephens  Stefan Radovanovic  Tom Williamson
Centreline: Will Setterfield Lochie O'Brien  Matt Kennedy
Half-forwards:  Ben Caluzzi  Josh Honey  Matt Owies
Forwards:  Corey Durdin  Ben Crocker  Sam Ramsay
Followers:  Alex Mirkov James Parsons Paddy Dow
Interchange:  Toby Wooller Tom North Sam Philp  Matt Shannon
Emergency: Dale Marshall Aaron Gundry Lachie Swaney  Fraser Phillips

Still no numbers posted.
There is a bit more experience in the side, Durdin and Philp will be on more minutes. A couple of guys have something to prove after last week's capitulation.
But out biggest problems will again be structural: not a lot of height along the spine and only 1 ruckman who cannot yet see out a game. It does not bode well.
Brisbane still have close to a full list. We don't.

Any word on media coverage??

Only 10 Senior listed players, shows just how many injuries we have, not a tall defender between them FFS. And of those 10 playing, I only hold hope for 5 of them (Durdin, Philp, Ramsey, Owies and dare I say it Dow).

Kayo.

Does that include FOXTEL or exclusive to Kayo?

Pretty sure it's exclusive to Kayo.

The cull of tall timber last off season (BSOS, Goddard, the other tall kid always injured Macreadie) without replacing any of the 3 was a bizarre decision/non decision.

Yes... very strange. Although Parks looks like a master-stroke so if he took 1 of those spots I think we're well in front.

Oscar McDonald cannot kick so I can't see much hope there unless he plays forward.

5-1-31 to nothing our way.

Is it too late to swap them for the firsts

The big ruckman Mirkov is pretty impressive with his tap work so far.

Now Blues 7-1 to Bris 0-0
