VFL Rd 5 2026 Carlton vs Tasmania in Hobart

Saturday night at 19:05 in Hobart.
Couldn't be further away from the seniors.
Not sure what our team will look like, but I strongly doubt that any of the Senior's emergencies will play.

I'd say there will be a pretty strong VFL contingent playing this week.
Live Long and Prosper!

Our line-up:

B:   41 Matt Duffy   47 Wade Derksen   42 Adam Saad
HB:  28 Harry Charleson   37 Jordan Boyd   34 Rob Monahan
C:   31 Campbell Chesser   15 Billy Wilson   13 Blake Acres
HF:   8 Lachie Fogarty   29 George Hewett   70 Darcy Hogg
F:   45 Flynn Young   40 Hudson O'Keeffe   30 Jack Ison
R:   56 Flynn Riley   50 Darcy Tucker   46 Matthew Cottrell
Int:   61 Dane Harvey   51 Jaiden Magor   64 Archie Stevens   65 Jed Rule   75 Liam Farrar   58 Jack Sammartino   59 Cooper Vickery   62 Oliver Warburton   68 Taj Logan   57 Alwyn Davey   74 Logan Prout   77 Will Cookson
EM:   73 Tom Stapleton

[1] 15 AFL Blues named, but only 12 will probably be going to Tassie. All three Emergencies will probably travel. Hence the last bench and the Emergency.
[2] Height: Fair dinkum, we don't have much. But why didn't Derksen play last week if he isn't in the seniors? To be honest, I have no idea. If I remember, Stapleton is a ruckman. He'll probably debut.
Debuts potentially to Magor, Rule and Alwyn Davey. First game for the year for stalwarts Archie Stevens, Cooper Vickery and Oliver Warburton.

None of our senior Emergencies are playing,as expected.
In fact, Cottrell has come in for a late replace for Ollie Hollands.

I can't see Stapleton on the team sheet, which makes our team dependent on one ruck, Flynn Riley. :(
He is doing OK so far, but I have no idea who is going to replace him when he needs a rest.

As usual, we can't kick straight:
Carlton: 0 - 4 - 4
Tassie: 1 - 2 - 8

Charleson and Wilson with 10 possessions each, at this point.
Live Long and Prosper!

Quarter Time:
Carlton: 0 - 4 - 4
Tassie: 1 - 3 - 9

Wilson with 11 possessions, Charleson with 10.
Riley doing well in the ruck.

Who is going to kick the goals?

Not great viewing.
Nobody standing up as yet.

Tassie are 3-0 but this is the first afl listed team they have played against, so shows the gap between the 'classes'.

We're winning most of the important stats, but can't make Tassie pay. Not the first time this has happened: we really need some young KP types.

Dominating play, but for no result. We have 5 of the top possessions getters on the ground.

Magor is looking ok. Seems to be a good user of the ball. Set up our 2nd goal with a good kick inside 50.

We're winning now 16-11. Billy Wilson already has 17 touches.

I liked the boot throwing contest at 1/4 time. Goodonya Tassie!

Love Billy Wilson's game so far.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

Reckon that last one was touched, ah well, they are due some luck

Ripped off then, the replay clearly shows touched, a deflection, but they were awarded a goal.

Do not understand how a goal umpire less than 3m away can miss that, you'd hear the flick on such a deflection.

The game is a bit to and fro, but on disposal proficiency some of the VFL listed are showing up our AFL listed.
