If reckon if you can pick around 75% of the Round 0 starting line up at this stage you're going to be doing pretty well :D
Challange accepted

FB Saad Weitering Derksen
HB Florent Dean Young
C Ollie Cripps Elijah
HF Hayward Kemp Moir
FF Byrne McKay Ainsworth
Foll Pittonet Hewett Walsh
Int Smith Chesser Lord Evans (minus the shades) Reidy

Reasoning as follows:
I dont trust Pittonet to go in with one ruckman, if its one its Reidy
HOK appears miles off
Happy to move on from Gov & Acres
Zaccy W unlucky but the other boys (Byrne and Ainsworth) have shown plenty up fwd compared to ZW (small sample size granted)
Derksen hasn't put a foot wrong and is hungry, ditto Reidy.
Fogarty seemed to have a strapped hammy after the game.
I have this inkling young Dean has been pestering Vossy for weeks with "Gimme Charlie, I'll get it done". The boy does not lack confidence to go with his competitiveness.

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

Heavy tracks take a while to recover in the legs no matter what. If they reduced player time for some because of the conditions, then they will probably be underdone (eg Papley??)

Charlie? 6 touches, 2 goals (one joe the goose that I could have kicked) minimal involvement once the ball is not in a marking contest  and the obligatory NO TACKLES!!   There are a lot of areas to pick up on in a week!!

Gov offers more versatility than Young, can play small or tall and has far better disposal. Young is purely 'break glass in case of emergency'.

Gulden and Heeney concern me more than the traitor, Swans are half the side when Gulden is absent or under control.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

Agree..I'd add Chad Warner in with those two as well, need to contain them and then Charlie won't be a factor.

Gulden rolled his ankle in the game against GWS.  Odds are he will play, but he wont be at the peak of his powers.  Heeney and Warner are the other two we need to clamp down on, along with the lizard.  They have fewer weapons than they used to but are still dangerous.

Of their forwards, we know how this goes.  Papley is the one that will do the most damage.
