VFL 2023 Rd 4 Carlton vs Richmond at Carlton

This week the 2's play on Friday night at 19:05 at Ikon Park against Richmond.
Our emergency players should be available, as the senior game will be over. Not sure that is the case for Richmond.
Live Long and Prosper!

I must admit, I don't know why we schedule so many night games for us. We have played our worst football at night in the last couple of years.
Mirkov, for example, whom we depend on to get first use of the ball, has played this worst games at night. {His best games have been on nice, sunny days on dry surfaces.)

I'd rather our VFL players play at night.  Could help them transition into night time footy for the ones.

Although there's a hell of a difference between a night game at Princes Park and playing under lights at the MCG, Docklands or the major interstate grounds.

Wish I could say otherwise, but... Dominic A doesn't look like it. Sadly.

Cincotta giving plenty of drive should be close to a call up.
Dows form deserves recognition for some AFL time.
Kemp is a better intercept player than Plowman.
Wouldn't mind seeing Fogarty recalled in the forward line.

Cincotta 34 disposals, Dow 27. Bins was OK, Durds Solid, Our Ruckman are all in hospital with leather poisoning.
I was a low scoring affair with lots of behinds in the second half. Blues win by 9 pts.

I thought Kemp was very good again.
Akui had some good moments.
Dow was good as usual. He got sandwiched in q4. Looked like head involved to me. Hopefully not and he's ok.
LoB kicked a nice late running goal. Ronke is very handy.
Coming together is the beginning.
Keeping together is progress.
Working together is success.

sadly he would likely be going better in another clubs system.

I dont know how the pies do it.  Every player they bring in seems to be even at worst a vanilla flavoured contributor that makes good decisions and is a good athlete/competitor.  We haven't turned a prospect into a player since zach tuohy.
