AFL Rd 17 2025 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Collingwood

11th vs 1st on a Friday night. Thankfully, I can get to this one: I hate Thursday night football.
Not expecting anything of significance, not the way we're playing.
Live Long and Prosper!

I want Cowan Harry OF and at least one Campo.

No Saad.  No Acres and probably no Weeters or Chuck. 
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

Port had Butters, Farrell and Bergman delivering majority of I50 with 70% accuracy

We had Lord, Fogarty and Charlie with 48% accuracy

We are going to face Collingwood that have Pendlebury, Sidebottom, Daicos and few others that go at 70% +

It's Vaseline time.

I know everyone wants Lemmey to play, and I personally was against him playing because I dont think he is ready, but he might give Charlie some freedom if he can get his running patterns right.

Harry O Farrell is a lot more of a mobile defender, and this week could be a good week to bring him in. 

Ben Camporeale was the other who gave a good account against the North Melbourne reserves.

We will find out a bit about the youngsters in waiting tomorrow night against Port Melbourne.  It probably wont be pretty.  Port are a good VFL side usually but they are currently sitting 16th on the ladder out of 21 (we are 14th).

Cowan is another who needs more senior time.

Tired of the same old blokes running around in the ones doing F-all week after week.

Yep, he isnt playing only because of his hamstring.  Last week was his first game back in the VFL and im not sure, but I think he was limited minutes.

Yep agree. The only thing is as they are playing for a premiership they only need the 4 points so may not be interested in killing us and once the game is banked like at QT they may conserve themself.

Remember this is an organised professional outfit who does what they need to to get the job done. Us on the other hand....

Teams with that mentality do not win flags, it's a sign of arrogance, it's the coaches job to drum it out of them and they would love nothing more than to pile on the pain.

The best teams plan and plan everything to the finest detail.

Pies rested 4 of their stars for a Freo game interstate and said that was planned in their off season planning about when to give their older players a rest. And they get the 4 points.

They are 1st 2 games clear and we are done for the year.
