Sounds like Murphy, Kreuzer and Daisy are all only 50/50 at best.

They might be named but do not be surprised if there are late changes.

Happy with that. A few mature bodies and players rewarded for good form.

Happy to see some mature bodies. Sick of seeing pimply faced adolescents getting beat up on.

Who gets first crack at Buddy.

Be too fast for Rowey.

Big ask but reckon Marchback might be in line for the big job.

Pies used a kid on him in their match and he did very well.

Start with Rowe in the first 1q, then maybe White, then Marchbank. No matter who you nominate, they will always be inadequate in some way. Almost certainly have to be double teamed for long periods.

I think Marchy might be the only one who as any sort of pace, endurance and size give it a crack. Weiters is a little slow, Rowe ditto, the only other may be Plow. This may seem crazy but might C Curnow have the tools to have a crack at Buddy (athletic, height, pace)??
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

Bit more of a reaction than I thought but the team looks a bit more solid on paper and better equipped to tackle Sydney.....Jones unlucky but you cant pick em all.
Graham needs to perform as he may not get many more chances...A.Silvagni can maybe add what James Kelly has added to Essendon in terms of experience and being able to be the General down back.
We still have a core group of kids in that team that are getting experience and its the right balance IMO....think we will be very competitive...

My concern is Rowe, white and Weitering will all lack the pace needed and buddy major strength is his pace on the lead- Marchbank while young seems a good match IMO. Buddy doesn't use his strength as much as his pace-Marchbank reads the play extremely well and is also quick.  Prefer to give the kid a chance first off it doesn't work then put one of our older guys on him.

Buddy is always dangerous but he's unstoppable if he starts well.... prefer Marchbank to get a opportunity when his cold rather then throwing the kid to the wolves once Buddy is red hot.
  
Plus if Marchbank does a good job on Buddy will be a massive confidence boast for the kid regardless of the final score.

I have no problem with any of that. But as I stated, each one of our match ups has some issues, so double teaming may be also be an option. The other issue is being too Buddy-centric. There's Reid, Tippett, Rohan, plus Buddy.  A real handful.

Happy to see Smedts get another go. Was hoping to see Cunningham. Hopefully he plays another good game in the 2s.
