Moir and Motlop running around together inside the vfl forward 50 will be an eye to the future. Durdin too. Plus Ned Cahill

at the feet of Liam McMahon is starting to look formidable.

Last opportunity for our reserves to show something before the mid season draft next Wednesday.

"Jesse Motlop will play his first game for the 2024 campaign on Saturday morning for the Carlton Reserves, returning via the VFL against the Suns at IKON Park. "

Good.

 

[Curnowhan]

Playing Gold Coast at the top of their game with no injuries.
Carlton are not playing well and decimated by injuries
The game will depend on the fitness of Weitering and Saad are.
Gold Coast by 5 points

Who hurt you, MJ?

 

[thegreatbeast]

Cowan for Marchbank makes sense with Holman for Day

Wondering which defender apart from Willams plays a different role

Cincotta midfield? Boyd further up the ground?

Intriguing

Isn't it Walter for Day?

 

[Arr0w]

Isn't it Walter for Day?

Yeap, I missed that first up

 

[Blue Reaper]

Might have 9 defenders in this week

And we’d still play more offensively than a Lyon-coached side!

 

[timbertron]

Fogarty in is big. This team is 14-2 over the last couple of seasons when he plays.

 

[athensblue]

Good ins
Shame about mots

Cfc website has TDK playing in FP and his twin TDK in the ruck

Go blues

 

[ESKIE]

Fogarty in is big. This team is 14-2 over the last couple of seasons when he plays.

Yeap

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Good.

Wouldn’t underestimate this GC side atm.

If they can afford to drop 4 after spanking the Cats, they must be going ok.

& we’re $1.40 which is surprising.

 

[ajb72]

I love how Pitt is (finger) and not (injured). Maybe he is okay and is just giving the finger to someone.

You would think a big response from last week,swans exposed our slow midfield,suns midfield is a little one paced as well.

I’d be disappointed if we lose.

Like it. Alot quicker side.
Looking forward to how we approach this one. Quick slick ball movement is what I’m hoping to see.
Saady/boyd/cinc streaming off half back linking up through the middle

 

[Blue Reaper]

A good, balanced side. One of our best defensive setups for a while. Hoping Zac is HF. Would still like to see a POD rotating through the midfield.

Not counting Doc, we’re arguably only Cerra, Martin and Cottrell away from close to our best team.

 

[JJBagger]

Either Carroll or Cincotta sub makes sense. No obvious matchup for Cincs unfortunately, but he has potential to be a handy sub

 

[timbertron]

Will be interesting to see if they change to a more scores from turnover based game with Pittonet out. That's what happened earlier in the season. Less reliance on scores from stoppage.

 

[bigm386]

Don't like young being Emg.... but then there's not really anyone else is there?

If something was to happen to TDK Young would be our ruck lol.

 

[T2B_]

Holman has done well to still be around

 

[Lukeblueboy]

I’d make Hewitt sub and play cin as a midfield rotation

[katmanblue]

Might have 9 defenders in this week

And GC will still find a loose man in their f50

Let's see how TDK has matured vs Witts in this one. Witts usually slaughters us.

Surprised they have 4 unforced changes after their slaughter of Geelong.

Those 4 were all managed against Geelong

 

[carlton_99]

Great changes.

Looks like Cincotta sub, which is reasonable.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was Carroll or Hewett. Cincotta can take an Ainsworth/Humphrey type perhaps

Intriguing

I think Cincotta or Boyd further up the ground would do okay. Especially if Ollie starts to struggle on the wing.

 

[Blue Reaper]

With Motlop coming through the VFL, pressure will be on Fantasia to have a good game. The scene is set ….
