AFL Rd 6 2022 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Fremantle

[crashlander]

This looks to be a tough game for us, as we only play one half of football.
On the other hand, we do match up fairly well against Freo.

Cripps may return. We need him.

[kruddler]

They are still without fyfe...and cerra has changed jumpers. Surely that was their best area against us in the past, and now it's non existent and we are much improved.

- Silvagni is an excellent contributor against non-ruckman opponents - however, I think we need a better back up ruckman unless the Duckers are similarly limited.
- Newnes performed admirably (especially early) and seemed more dangerous in attack (although he missed some opportunities) than LOB has been - deserves to hold his spot.
- Cottrell was good enough and deserves to hold his spot.
- Parks was passable as our 3rd tall defender but might struggle to hold his spot if a better option is available.

- Martin and Fisher showed up at stages - Durdin and Owies had limited opportunities but consistently delivered pressure when the ball went forward (not so often in the 2nd half) - one of them might get a rest (for team balance) if we need to play a back up ruckman.
- Kennedy has gone off the ball the past 2 weeks but probably has enough credits in the bank to hold his place.

If Cripps is fit he should come in - also want to add seasoned hardened pros like Plow into the team.

From what I’ve seen, Freo are in some good form. This will be a challenge against a side that’s in a similar position to us in terms of the rebuild thing.

[Mantis]

Will not be an easy game. A win here would be a great result. None of our next four or five games are easy. It with probably come down to on field leadership.

[capcom]

Will be one tough assignment.  Here's hoping

After Freo, we play North and then the Crows over here. That's pretty easy.

[Mantis]

MAV. We haven’t had great games against the Crows or North when we expected wins in recent seasons. We find a way to mess up the games we need to lock away. I hope North and the Crows are easy games. Better still. Let’s just hope we beat Freo and take it one game at a time.

No such thing these days.  North was supposed to be easy last year, too.......
