Re: AFL Rd 6 2023 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs St Kilda
Reply #107 –
We have to accept that unless we change some of the things we are doing, we are probably 6-7th at best, and certainly not ready for the really pointy end of the season.
Here's a few leftish-field ideas to try and get our side on an upward trajectory.
(1) For a side that boasts the last two Coleman medallists, our scoring this year has been abysmal. Put Kemp as a mobile marking option in the F50 - they tried it for a while a couple of years back, and he did not look out of place. Alterrnatively, play Cripps more in F50 as that mobile target.
(2) Given # 1, play Harry as a true centre half forward, getting marks on the wing etc. That is where he has looked the most effective this year.
(3) Binns in. Maybe even give Dow a go. We are so slow, I would give anyone with leg speed a crack.
(4) Give Cincotta, Saad and McGovern (perhaps even Boyd) absolute license to run off half-back, with defense as a secondary consideration (especially when Doc is back).
(5) Get TDK and Mirkov in tandem off the bench. Pittonet is just too slow.
There's a start.
agree with what you have written except H at CHF, he isnt footy smart enough to play the CHF role. He can get up the ground and clunk a mark, thats when the trouble begins.
