Carroll got 32 touches today
Billy Wilson got 24 today
Binns got 21 and a goal today
Durdin got 15 and a goal

All are younger and have performed to the same level as Fantasia (or better)

Carroll had 2 tackles in 19% TOG on Thursday and backed it up today
Fantasia had 2 tackles in 55% TOG on Thursday
But do they run the “right patterns” ?
Do they clog the oppositions midfield when we need to defend and present an option/get out of the way when attacking ?
I think there’s too much micro managing on what Orazio/Durdin don’t do (kick goals)

Goldy was “managed” when Witts didn’t get up for Gold  Coast; a decision that backfired with Moyle and Walter having the better of Bryan and Wright.

I don’t think Pittonet will come up so it will be an easy decision for the MC; De Koning and McKay vs Goldstein and Wright.

I’m looking forward to seeing the McKay twins do battle.  I hope tempers don’t fray.

McKay twins will go down in history as the only two players with parellel 10 yr+ careers who never played against each other

Goldstein not playing today against GC. A late change.

We must bring attention to detail this week vs the cheats, that and hard running. Watching their games I have noted that they aren't lazy by any stretch, they run hard, create space and continuously look for options. They are quite quick too which will be a worry for for us. They are always looking to spoil or get a hand on the footy to intercept, desperate if you like. We need to be on our toes.
