VFL 2023 Rd 5 Carlton vs Sandringham at Carlton

The game starts at 11:05, so it will be well over by the time the senior game begins at Marvel.

Nothing yet as to who will play on Sunday morning.
However, Boyd, Martin and Cottrell could all play.

It’s on soon. To watch it, Google VFL Fixtures, click on the link to the afl.com.au page and then navigate with another couple of clicks to the match centre. The watch video button appears when the time is nigh.

Only Jordan Boyd is currently listed in the team. Martin and Cottrell aren’t.

Apparently, Plowman is the only emergency playing today. Lemmey and Mirkov are out.

So, what are we to make of TdK, Kemp & LOB sitting out? Either there are a couple of withdrawals to the selected senior side or we’re trying to play ducks & drakes with the opposition over the identity of the sub.

I guess at least 2 of the emergencies would have to be held back in case there’s an injury in the warm-up.

None of the 1st choice VFL rucks playing, Sam Durdin a late withdrawal, sounds like some late AFL changes coming.

Sandy 4pts up at qtr time.

Good to see Carroll playing well. Bit of a skeleton crew in the Magoos.

Undermanned squad, but Dow and Fogarty look the best of the available options, I have to say Dow looks much better playing out of the Back Pocket.

Hard to understand why in the absence of Owies that Fogarty can't get a run in the AFL.

Tall Durds also not playing in the Magoos... I wonder who hasn't come up? Blacres?

It’s not too hard to imagine flu ripping through the VFL team. Fortunately, the VFL & AFL teams are reasonably separate.

I really do like the look Jaxon B. Deft disposal. Won't be long before he gets a call up.

Binns, Carroll, Dow, Boyd & Fogs all playing well...

Scores level, 25 minute mark of the 2nd. Our inaccuracy is costly.

Boyd has a simple flaw in his game, he gets to good positions and runs hard, but he runs straight lines which leaves him susceptible to being run down. If he could learn to make the odd baulk / quick side-step, he would create some time and space for himself.

You can see that Boyd is a little rusty, but is working his way into the game nicely...

O'Keefe has good hands and a dash of agro -- we like that -- but is pushed off the ball in contests a little too easily, once he fills out he just might be the goods.

Dom A was going well until he dropped a sitter in front of goal, letting the opposition in for a soda.
