Preview Rnd 6 - Carlton v Sydney Saturday 29th April 2.10PM @ MCG - Team post #802

[BoltonsBlues]

Whats wrong with murphy

 

[Mondyboy]

Love to see Cunningham get a game. Played well today and has been consistent across the pre-season and early AFL games.

While I'm not a big fan I'd consider giving Graham a go. Played tough and hard today and actually kicked well.

If you read the Swans board right now a couple of them think we're gonna beat them. They clearly didn't watch Friday night. Having said that they are rattled and so this is an opportunity for our guys to show some heart.

Anyway, ins: Krooz, Cunningham, Graham or Smedts (not both)

Outs: Phillips, Matt Wright (who is out of form) and Simon White

Of course Murph may not play.

Suspected meniscus damage.

 

[Mondyboy]

If I ask for one thing it's that we take the game on next week. It drove me mad that we would switch the ball and then stop and look around. The whole point of the switch is to make room and space.

If we can stay within striking distance by half way through the last quarter we will be a chance.

 

[luke livingston seagull]

Phillips/Kreuzer swap a no-brainer. If Murph misses then Graham has to come in and play big midfield minutes–last chance to show he has it.
Smedts, Cuningham, Kerridge will be in the mix. Think we'll see a 1st year player or two being rested as this is a super winnable game on current form. Daisy to play VFL.

Also have a feeling Harry will have one more week in the VFL and debut against the Pies in round 7... we'll see!

 

[RUNVS]

Looking forward to the cripple vs blind man match next week.

 

[BrisbaneCFC]

After the VFL match, the same Outs, the Ins Kreuzer, Graham, Cuningham and Smedts.

Why are we needing to drop Weitering? I don't get it.

If we are that close half way through the last im calling that a win regardless of the result after the last 2 3rd quarters . But honestly cant see how we are winning this game .

If I was to pick our strongest potential team this week..

Bring in Graham for Wright. 0 goals for 3 weeks and doesn't contribute enough elsewhere.

Cuningham in for Pickett. Same as above.

Smedts for Polson. Offers a bit more at this stage.

Kruezer in for Phillips

Jacksch in for Weitering. Only due to Weitering looking ready for a break.

Possibly Jones for Macreadie as an option to play on buddy..

Plowman Rowe White
Cuningham Marchbank Simpson
Murphy Cripps williamson
Silvagni Casboult Charlie
SPS Jacksch Smedts

Kruezer Gibbs Docherty

Fisher Graham Jones Ed

Side note: how much of a gun is Williamson! Averaging 16 disposals a game for a bloke who could virtually still be playing TAC cup. If recall correctly, the only knock on him pre-draft was his low possession count? Seems to have already put that one to bed.

 

[BLUEALLTHRU]

This will be a close one and 2-4 after this.

 

[GapInIkonPark]

Guessing injured. (Rather he wasn't, but if he needs to be rested, this is the week)

 

[MitchRobinson12]

Everyone who wanted to play all the kids from the start of the season saw what happens when there are no mature/experienced players to help them out, this is why we have Kerridge, Thomas, Graham, Smedts and Palmer. 2-3 of those need to play every week for a fair chunk of this season.

The MC wanted to play them.

I was surprised that we were rolling them out so quickly, expecting more of a gap between the introduction of debutantes, but we took the chance.
Malthouse on radio yesterday felt it may not be the right way to go, but I'm not too worried any more.

I get the impression these guys can wear a beating without getting too down or flustered about it.
There will be change this week though, but at least the changes will be warranted for form.

 

[Lace_Out]

We can't let the kids cop too much of a beating though. Look at what it did to murph and gibbs etc. They sound broken when interviewed.

[Soapy V]

I hope Cuningham gets a game
Buckley in defence and Docherty on the ball
McKay would be tempting
Kruezer in for Phillips
Weitering in defence and Rowe up forward

 

[ferrisb]

Wow, we may genuinely struggle to win another game this season

Rubbish.

Reports of our season's death are greatly exaggerated.

I'm guessing they weren't planning to roll them out so quickly until the debutantes fared better than expected. The positive is some are looking a little tired rather than overwhelmed.

Gamble that didn't work out but would have one or two of Graham, Smedts, Buckley, Plamer, Kerridge have really made any difference?

There'll be a lot of talk as to what we're doing is right or wrong, but we just can't make an informed call from here.
I still think they're ballsy and for that alone; Well done.

 

[Kuttez87]

I quite like Rowe up forward, he's not going to kick many goals but he is just a brute, won't lose one on ones and gives us an out to kick long too. Weitering down back permantly

 

[HARKER]

If Rowe goes forward and Weitering back, then we've lost the plot.

Would go against everything we set out to do and want to become.

 

[james Dean]

Rubbish.

I'd be surprised if we didn't steal a game or 2 down the line, but it's difficult to see any games in which we are favourites

Do we play Essendon again?

In what possible way does this statement make sense?
