AFL Rd 23 2026 Pre Game Predictions Carlton vs Bulldogs at Marvel

Draw or better and we are playing finals.

Otherwise needs saints and giants to lose one of their next 2.


Big question for mine is....
Do we bring in Weitering?
Who goes out?

Think it will be Weitering for Young.
English is almost a certainty not to play so Young's relief ruck work won't be needed to the same extent.
I'd move Derksen to the forward line (with the option to move him back if required)

Most likely although Young doesn't deserve to be dropped.

No, he doesn't.
I'm not sure anybody does.
"Unchanged" seemed to work pretty well for us.

I guess the thing is that if we do make it to the wildcard round we would want Weitering there, so best get him back in sooner rather than later.

IMHO, weitering was hardly as dominant as made out.


He had two very poor efforts too which resulted in goals to the saints on Sunday.

1.  He assumed a ball was going to carry over for a throw in, just to have a saints player shark it from behind him.

2.  Another one where he turned it over in defense. 

There was another one where he went the short option to ollie hollands who got caught holding the ball and it was more ollie being indecisive on the next kick than anything else.

Even so, i didnt think he played particularly well against a saints team that wasn't flushed with tall talent.



The Doggies arent overly tall, and our balance is as good as ever.  Not sure we need weiters back this week, and would rather play charleson than weiters.
