Preview 2022 Rd 11 Carlton vs Collingwood Sunday May 29 3:20PM AEST @MCG - Final Team Post #1018

[Aphrodite]

Hearing upwards of 80k on Sunday.

The next 2 games, * & Tigers….potentially 80k.

Can’t recall any other team pulling those numbers, 3 games on the trot, ever.

How good that must be for this young list to be getting that sort of exposure.

All 3 away games.

My all time fav George Harris pic!

What can either of them offer us really?

A player or from a draft point of view somewhere between 40-50.

I just want to see a healthy Marchbank again. I was so damn excited for what he'd bring.

We all do but I think we also have doubts whether he’s body can stand up.

I've been thinking a bit lately about the old saying "progress isn't linear". I only recall hearing that phrase when progress is less than expected.

Progress is not linear for us right now. It is exponential. We have jumped a few grades suddenly. We are now truly in the hunt for 17. It is just so exciting.

Our progress will continue against the pies. I think they've performed beyond expectations this year but we will be just too good.

Our progress was massively stalled over the last 4 years.
Injuries in 18, Bolts went off the rails in 19, and then the disaster of Teague/Liddle.

Voss has done a great job of getting us back to where we should be in less than half a season.

Agree to an extent but to have the progress we've had this year is still nothing short of remarkable

 

[Choc Milk]

No changes

Carroll needs a rest in my opinion. Martin in for him

 

[Juddernaut08]

Can you smell what the Blues are Brian Cook.

People wanting O'brien out, I don't know exactly but I reckon we score from almost half his kicks into the 50. He is lethal

No, our progress wasn't stalled over those 4 years, hence why we are where we are right now

Different players and or different levels of experience/maturity

You really need to stop looking for someone to blame

I'd also say the off field magnet shuffling (board), redefining of roles etc has helped as well. No more meddling by people in places they shouldn't be meddling in.

30.8%

Ranked 3rd in the league for inside 50 kicks that result in a goal

wow! I thought so but overestimated a bit. He is a laser with that left foot

Is he tired?

Bye next week.

Of course it was stalled.
We had the talent. It's just that we performed so poorly that people (even on here) couldn't see it.

The second half of 19 when we went 6-5 with minor coaching tweaks, despite all the injuries, showed our level.
We should definitely have played finals in 20, and been top 4/challenging last year.

The second half of 2019 was the result of caretaker Teague putting Murphy and Curnow back into the midfield.

Charlie for another bag

yep chase wins at the expense of player development. Had to do it as we needed some wins but went too far to the detriment of player development.

We’re well behind where A) club would have expected since 2015 B) where player development should have been, so we have stalled no doubt with lack of required progress as football club, team & AFL/VFL standard players. We’d regressed vs progressed, especially last season.

Though this has been made up in spades, and the development appears to be off the chart, even within the season. Still more to look forward to.

Just hence. No hence why.

Murphy only went back in when Cripps was injured.
We also lost Charlie after 2 games (3 & 7 goals). We had the talent, and massively underperformed to go 1-10 in the first half of the season.

A Liddle...

 

[Aphrodite]

Um hello it's 2022 not 2019!

 

[Rustica]

It's one of the best left footers going around. When he is uncontested and on the run.. the kicks he pulls off are amazing.

I strongly disagree with this view.
When Teague was appointed he brought LOB straight back in and played him on the wing. Samo went back, because we needed his disposal out of the backline. Ed Curnow (we're talking 1 senior player) into the guts, where we had been getting smashed. And then Murphy inside when Cripps got injured.

Losing over 90% of your games is not good for development. Teague made the right calls as a caretaker. The problem was when he was appointed Senior Coach, that was a disaster for development, morale, everything. He couldn't even match the results he got as caretaker.
