Round 10 team v Sydney
Backs:	Brodie Kemp	Jacob Weitering	Alex Cincotta
Half-backs:	Caleb Marchbank	Mitch McGovern	Nic Newman
Centreline:	Zac Williams	Patrick Cripps	Blake Acres
Half-forwards:	Ollie Hollands	Tom De Koning	Elijah Hollands
Forwards:	Harry McKay	Charlie Curnow	Matthew Owies

We will do well on a smaller ground

Durdin actually did some great team acts, but will come under pressure with players returning

Cerra is a loss, but Hewett is a reasonable replacement

TBH, I have more faith in George these days, Cerra's disposal lets him down more than occasionally and injuries aside for both players, George is more consistent

 

[Ezayyak]

If Carlton ever finds an elite small forward we will not only win one flag but multiple

Reckon Motlop learned to kick the big goals towards the end of last year. The Gold Coast game, the semi final. And they have been snaps. Owies is beginning to finally use his spatial awareness to create goals not just kick them (which he is as reliable as anyone in our team.)

But yes, if we had one elite small forward our forward line would be psychotic.

 

[Lukeblueboy]

So, are mots and saady any chance to play in this one?

 

[Robertio]

Swans can’t run in waves if they are constantly belted in the stoppages. Make every tackle hurt with ferocious pressure.

Spot on that's how we win.

 

[Show_Me_The_Money]

Binns could only take Ollies spot. Think they will persevere with Ollie, but I could be wrong.
Corey will be replaced by Motts in a couple of weeks, until then he plays imo.
Jack Carroll is the one they bring in for Cerra, like for like and keep team balance.

Hewett for Cerra I think. Carroll can be the sub.

 

[AB_Blue]

Williams Sub

Hewitt into the 22 for Cerra

If Pitto is out then one of Binns/Cunners/Carroll in

You must have been living under a rock the first 4 weeks of the season then

First 4 weeks weaker opposition and Saad, Mcgovern played to help us score from transition

 

[Beyond Blue]

I mentioned it a few weeks back. Do whatever we can to ask the question about Shai Bolton

He’s contracted so would cost a fortune both in terms of salary and trade capital. We couldn’t possibly get him.

 

[T2B_]

What actually happened to Pitto's hand? Wouldn't surprise me if flog Gawn stamped on it, but surely not

I bleed Blue ?

 

[I bleed Blue]

I bleed Blue ?

Just thought calling Gawn a flog is pretty stiff

Seems like a very good guy.

Off field, no arguments. On it, I think he's prone to tanties and less than stellar behavior, but just IMO.

Yep

 

[F_therest]

Williams & Hewett for Cerra & Pittonet and Cuningham or Carroll as sub gives us more run

I'd go Hewett for Cerra, Williams for Cowan and Cunners for Pitto if he's injured.

More like for like except a runner in cunners for Pitto. Think there's a fair chance Pitto plays though.

Hope not, Dow wasn’t given a fair go by the MC or half the supporters

I'd go Hewett for Cerra, Williams for Cowan and Cunners for Pitto if he's injured.

I wouldn’t drop Cowan. He’s the future and doing his job at the moment. Experience is vital

 

[bigm386]

Carroll comes in for Cerra. Binns for Pittonet.

Huh?

He played 70+ games for us and can't get into a bottom 6 midfield at the Saints. What is a fair go exactly?

Opportunity was there, wasn't taken.

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

If Williams is right to go, he'll be straight back in. I'd actually be half tempted to give Cincotta a run in the midfield this week if Zach takes a spot at half back.

He played in the guts in the North VFL game a few weeks back, and was easily our best player (along with Pitto funnily enough) - his burst out of stoppages was impressive, like a raging bull.

Having said that, I think we'll just bring Georgie back from the pine into the 22 to replace Cez. I'd actually like to see DC as the sub this week - thought he was serviceable in the magoos yesterday, but can come in either a forward or an extra running mid late in the game.

Outs: Pitto, Cerra (inj)
Ins: Williams, Cunners

Cincotta followed Pickett into 1 if not a couple of centre/bounces from memory, certainly something that could be explored more of when needed…

 

[Blue_Fusion]

This is a game where Pitto's deficiencies shouldn't really be a factor. Smaller ground, contested... right up his ally.

 

[Ticky009]

Heads up Blues Fans: Bar some scattered seating we have a sell out at the SCG.

If you plan to attend and do not have your ticket then get thee hence to nab the few remaining.

Fair go to Dow, he has been injured.

He will definitely get a game there.

Hewitt into the 22 for Cerra

Come one, George has been at Carlton a few years now, learn to spell his name

Absolutely love Jorge, he's become one of my faves

Hey Ticky009

 

[SOS Rules]

The smaller ground will suit our game style. If we are defending a lead we should be able to shut the game down easier. We need to win clearance and contested ball and keep piling the pressure on their defence. Not sure about their ability to contain Charles and H. They will have a height advantage in their forward line. Ruck battle will be interesting.

We can definitely do this if we crack in for the majority of the game. Let's do it.
