Preview 2022 Round 8 Carlton vs Adelaide Sunday 8th May 4:40PM @ Marvel Stadium - Team Update - Post #689

[Brackets]

This is the second game Boyd has been named in the starting 22. Pretty average for it to draw criticism.

 

[Arr0w]

Cottrell sub

Makes sense another runner

Hmm Mckay and now Plow struck with illness.

Let's hope there isn't a virus going around the players.

Seems like something is spreading around the league... most of our emergencies are playing tonight, so hoping that means we aren't expecting any further late changes.

 

[Jeremias]

Plow a big out. Thank Judd we managed to overturn the Young suspension.

Boyd gets another opportunity. I haven't seen it yet with him but the coaching staff love him so he must do a lot right. Happy to back him and the MC in on this one.

Yeah just saw bombers have 5 players late out for tonight's game...

Voss is looking more at his positives and less at his in-game mistakes. Goes hard at every contest is a fast runner needs to acclimatise to the pace of AFL as all blokes who are desperate to make it do. When the pressure is really on go slower to go faster - the really good players have this naturally. If he stops giving away frees and starts being just a tad smarter he will be a good worker.

Sydney losing today is very handy. Opens up the top 4.

 

[katmanblue]

On the Dow discussion, any chance you guys could move it to the Dow thread?

Maybe keep this thread from being detailed?

Circular arguments are getting rather old.

They'll pick him when they pick him.

Also a very nice kick.

Is Kreuzer playing yet?

He'd wanna be, if we are still sponsoring him.

Expected to win, must win for top 4, top 8, chance of finals etc. Been burnt so many, many times.
Very nervous about this one.

We win tomorrow we're top 4 end of the round if Melbourne beat StKilda (else 5th). This makes me worry as the pressure of being in this type of position does not bode well for the post 2002 Blues.

I agree, Boyd has a good attitude, has a real crack at contest, but he's making mistakes and not ready now.

I feel the "OLD" Carlton of the last 5 years we would drop this game.

But not this mob now and with the Captain in Beast mode we'll roll this mob by 6 goals.

Marchbank dominating the 2s.
14 disposals before half time.

 

[dragonsblues]

Very big game for us tomorrow. We need the points and percentage.

Win and the saints lose to Melbourne, we’re 4th.

Lose and we’re only a game ahead of Richmond and Collingwood who have a better percentage

There seems to be alot of these so called virus's going around all clubs.

 

[Juddrockz]

I just hope Harry plays and isnt a late out. We need this win!

 

[Michael Jezz]

Blows my mind that people are willing/wanting a number of positional changes to get Dow in the side to "see what he can do"

I get it, people want to see an early draft pick play/make it at senior level, despite the messaging being clear that he needs to work on aspects of his game

Personally, I would rather see the group build continuity and continue to win, rather than experiment on the hope it could work and or be better for the team as a whole

After Dow's last Qtr against Frankston, he does not deserve to play AFL anytime soon.

 

[morningbrown]

Plow out makes me very nervous about Rachele

We’ve lost every game over the past three years where there was chance to consolidate our position on the ladder - huge danger game - we really need to turn up.

 

[Garters]

On the Dow discussion… pretty sure vossy mentioned in his last presser that Dow may potentially have to find another string to his bow to play in the ones. Probably our 5th best inside mid but if he can add goals in open play to his repertoire then he’ll come into the team sooner rather than later. Kennedy isn’t a lock in the 1s. That’s the spot Dow should be going after.

Kennedy is clearly a lock in best 22. Has been since 2H of last season.
