AFL Rd 9 2025 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs St, Kilda

Friday 9th May at 19:40 at the MCG against the 'Aints.
At least it isn't a Thursday night: I can't realistically get to them.
Live Long and Prosper!

Well, St Kilda won by 10 goals and we lost by 10 goals, so it is going to be interesting viewing on Friday night.
I don't think we've won a night game this year as yet.

Silvagni is a chance to return, Cottrell has ankle issues and will miss about a month.
So, who do we bring in? Pitto was good last week, and Tom doesn't tend to do well against bulls like Marshall.
Silvagni coming into defence is a certainty if he is fit enough. Not sure he will be, just a week after hand surgery, but that is another tale.
Who replaces Cottrell? Boyd played decently last week. Binns?

Doc has 12 possessions last week and looked well off the pace. Do we replace him? If so, with whom? I would be bringing in Frank the Tank: he might have had a few tackles last week, but he couldn't hit the side of a barn, from inside.

It will be very interesting to see how we line up this week.

Might  be as simple as as SOS for Young. Coll resting De Goey, Pendlebury, Mihocek and Maynard lol. Imagine what would happen to us if we rested Cripps, Hewett, Saad and Harry or Charlie. We'd get smashed by 120 points.
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

Silvagni has to play. A broken hand can be carried. Tape it into a club if he needs to.

I haven't seen how the 2's have gone recently, but Lucas Campo is who i'd use to replace Cottrell unless his form has been terrible.

Not sure why Boyd is on the naughty list, but i'd bring him in for Docherty or Cowan and use the other as sub.

I’d keep Moo in the team, he’s got it, he just needs some continuity
Let’s go BIG !

Lucas has been pretty average. His disposal hasn't been great. Same with Ben.
They're works in progress.
I reckon we should give Binns another crack.
I wouldn't be surprised if Evans got a run. He was OK in the VFL.

Boyd seems to be out of favour, so he must be doing something wrong in an area that he's been asked to work on.
Will they go with two rucks?
Pittonet is match ready. O'Keefe is putting himself forward for selection and can kick a goal.

Hopefully Silvagni is good to go.

Boyd's disposal by foot has been as bad as some of the worst kicks by Doc and McGovern  ::)
It's still the Gulf of Mexico, Don Old!
