Re: Pre game preamble: AFL 2020 Rd 6: Carlton vs ??? Reply #30 – July 08, 2020, 05:16:17 pm Back to this Sunday's game...Just saw an awful sight that filled me with pessimism toward Sunday's outcome. I watched the boys training up north in the sun and there was Barker giving players instructions... 😭 😔 😔

Re: Pre game preamble: AFL 2020 Rd 6: Carlton vs ??? Reply #33 – July 08, 2020, 09:10:04 pm Lin Jong, Bailey Smith, Laitham Vandermeer, and Hayden Crozier all definitely or highly likely to miss, Lachie Hunter highly likely to return. Handy outs which will definitely help our cause.

That was one of the things that irritated me so much about our football under Bolts.Given their previous few weeks the Dogs have used Bontempelli as the tagger rather than trying to free him up so I would expect him to go to Cripps and maybe rotate with Macrae. Libba will get Walsh IMO and I would expect Martin to attract a tagger as well.We need to make sure we dont let players like Daniel, Lipinksi, West to slip under the radar and run around with no attention...

Re: Pre game preamble: AFL 2020 Rd 6: Carlton vs ??? Reply #40 – July 09, 2020, 06:32:34 pm And no Naughton helps too. Just saw the team lists and Fisher one of 4 potential ins alongside Kennedy, Polson and Moore....so no Jack Silvagni again. Surely Polson and Moore are miles off getting a game...unless there's an injury or two that aren't being revealed? With some half decent ball movement we should be able to take advantage with McKay, McGovern AND Casboult up forward. Might be that Betts is rested for this one.

He isn't getting enough of the ball. However, he isn't making a lot of mistakes either. But if he only gets it 12 times, he isn't providing drive.H has to be under the pump. He hasn't been doing much. Moore just might get a game because he does the negative things and helps to keep the ball in the forward line. I am not overly impressed by him as a player, but when H and the Gov are not doing the job, we would be stupid not to consider our options.It will be raining on the Gold Coast: is that a reason to bring in Kennedy? he has been playing well for the 2's. 1 Likes

Easton Wood is the intercept king and the Guv never chased or manned Wilkie last week and it cost us and Moore or Kennedy might come in to replace him.Polson....tackles well but offers little else..
