Re: AFL Rd 9 2022 Post Game Permutations Carlton vs GWS

Mirkov is a big unit himself and while inexperienced would made Pruess work a bit harder to match those extra cms and that
might help TDK both having a rest and wearing Pruess down a bit.
Didnt really like seeing Cripps rucking even though he was very competitive vs the GWS second stringers and Mirkov could have
taken that load off Cripps, Jack etc.
I think we are putting a fair load of work on TDK too and given our luck with injury I hope we are not working him too hard when we have a ruckman all be it inexperienced in the reserves who could alleviate that.
Hickey for the Swans will be another workout for TDK and I hope I dont see TDK and Cripps doing all the work again especially with Jack filling in for Harry down forward and probably not rucking as much.
I walked past him at the G, and a big unit isn't what I thought of when I saw Mirkov.
