Preview 2024 Rd 6 Carlton v GWS Saturday April 20 4:35PM (AEDT) @ Marvel Stadium

O’Keefe does seem like a more natural partner to TDK.

He does look very promising but at 19, I would rather they give him more time to build himself up in the reserves.

He is obviously in our long-term plans.

 

[GeorgieBoyBlue2]

As I said- we will see what he can do when he gets hos chance. Fact is no one knows until we know AFL is a totally different game than VFL.

True....so why is Ollie still playing then? Haven't seen him star in the VFL or be at AFL level.... Binnsy at least had been a star in the VFL. Nothing to lose by playing a kid who has busted his ass for over a year for a game with a player who has been gifted games since day dot without earning it.
Only reason for this is recruitment ego, fear of looking silly when your top 10 pick ain't up to it...
We lose nothing dropping Ollie.

 

[GeorgieBoyBlue2]

Would be devastating if true...no saad gov and williams...all of our drivers off half back.

Boyd says and Cincotta has to be the replacement...who else is there?

I love kemp. Sure the hair is going the same way but think he offers different assets to plow lol

He’s an awkward size though, he’s not big enough to be a big defender. I like how he (generally) attacks the ball, going to be interesting to see what he ends up like. Was a mid fwd when we grabbed him. Maybe just needs to work on the running/fitness and agility

Walshy was quoted a while back as saying Kemp was 195cm now.

He just needs to bulk up now...

Reckon he's getting better and better.

Would love to see him used as a swingman.

Hearing that Zac Williams will likely be a late out with soreness.

not great for my supercoach

 

[Neese]

ffs.
Go Blues

Do you really think Voss plays 'favourites'?

Go away

 

[My Hat]

Leave him in the midfield and he will be a gun. Sadly he is victim of us having Cripps Hewett Carroll that are similar and us trying to fit them all in

Agree that Kennedy's best position is midfield, but I don't think he's being pushed out by Carroll. It's more that he's filling a need that the team has elsewhere.

I'm hoping we won't end up giving Kennedy the JSOS treatment -- he sacrifices his game for the good of the club only to have (some) supporters say he has no clear role and should be dropped once the injury crisis eases.

 

[Bongo Drum]

You sure you heard the player's name correctly?

I mean "Williams" sounds very much like "Pittonet", at least to my ears... easy to mistake the two together yeah?... surely it's the ruckman that's the late out.... right?




are we cursed??

[4flagsin5yrs]

Yeah he'd be a great get if we can.

Would slot in and fill a position of need perfectly.

don't see it with him.

Would prefer the Club just focus on getting Moir insanely fit....

 

[Accidental genius]

don't see it with him.

what are your main concerns?

imo, any swan mid would be a good get.

They do a great job developing their players.

Every coach does, just like every supporter does. Human nature.

 

[TENACIOUS]

O’Keeffe an emergency, are the MC losing their minds at the chance to play 3x ruckman

Not many other healthy AFL-listed players atm unfortunately

I'd love to see O'Keeffe, but only as a late change for Pitto.

I thought it ironic that Essendon beat Adelaide last night with two ruckmen in the team.

 

[BLUEALLTHRU]

Backs against the Wall Baggers, get it done!

Either Port or Pies will do the same

Good point, we should get the first score and get Pitto to lay on the ball for the rest of the game.

Not disputing that’s what Walsh said, but no chance kemp is as tall as cripps or weitering who are listed at that height.

Dogs beat saints with 3 rucks (Darcy, Lobb & English) Might be the new norm
