Re: AFL Rd 24 2023 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs GWS

If we do look at playing GWS twice I’d put someone on Toby Greene who will niggle the crap out of him in this first one. Given his track record he will loose his cool and not be playing in the second. He is their real leader and talisman. Nic Newman is the man for the job
Toby seems to have pulled his head in since becoming the skipper. Anger management?
I’d be surprised if Newy can keep him as quiet as he did last time but he should definitely get the first crack.
We had a very different defence when we played them earlier in the season with Young, Cowan and McGovern in the team. I think that we played a midfielder (Cerra or Hewett) in defence to allow Docherty to play in the midfield.
I prefer our current defensive set up … and it’s the most miserly in the competition. That includes Marchbank ahead of McGovern. Gov is flashier but Marchy is more reliable.
