Preview Rnd 6 - Carlton v Hawthorn Sunday April 28th 3.20PM @ UTAS - Team Post #1331

[Space Cadet]

Haha after all that!
Didn't someone say Charlie didn't train?

 

[Mr_Plow]

Like many, I would have liked to have seen Cuningham get a run, but my God, with Charlie named, we're already much better (on paper, at least) than last week.

Yes, still reasonably confident we can beat the Hawks with a few positioning shuffles.

 

[TBellicious]

Curnow, McKay, McGovern, Casboult & Silvagni in the same forward line.

Interested to see how this pans out

 

[Bokan]

Cuningham late in for Charlie if he doesn't get up? Surely?

 

[Big Red is back]

selection a mess.. we will have to win despite the selection. Really does defy belief to go in this slow and top heavy.

 

[Macca43]

Really not a fan of the change, going 4 talls has never really worked for us in the past and can't see it working now.

REally hoping he is a late out for Cuningham. The fact the blues website has the phrase "Should Curnow play" gives me some hope.

 

[Mondyboy]

The only difference between this team and the Gold Coast game is Lobbe out / Krooz in.

Looking forward to seeing the hawks waltz out of our forward line again.

At least we got one week of a balanced side

[Arr0w]

But wasn't it supposed to be Kennedy for Polson?

I'm confused.

I would have preferred Kennedy, but Curnow is a better selection than Cuners

What's your position on the changes? Or do you think this is bay 13?

 

[cfc4life]

Surely Charlie or one of the other FOUR key forwards are a late out.

 

[Arr0w]

How many games has Kennedy played in the last 5 weeks?

Cuningham played 3 really good games in the pre-season - Kennedy didn't play 1. Cuningham played a good game in round 1. Kennedy has played a could of oridnary game sin the VFL and 1 good one against a very ordinary side.

So yes I would take Cuningham over Kennedy on form. As well as all the other reasons I have outlined.

Where is your positive arugment for Kennedy?

Teams are out Macca, move on

 

[GoBlues!]

Can't see Polson's ceiling ever being that high.

Enough with the short jokes Mr Plow..

 

[Laphroaig]

Like many, I would have liked to have seen Cuningham get a run, but my God, with Charlie named, we're already much better (on paper, at least) than last week.

Structure is going to be a challenge.

Take an already top heavy forward line side and bring in a tall forward for a small.

Unless, of course, we are being bullshitted..........

 

[HBF]

Curnow named for Polson. We were all wrong.

I'm ded.

Wow thats a tall team.
Probs be a late change.

don't underestimate how big that difference is though.

 

[HBF]

Cuners to come into final team when Curnow doesn’t get up....messing with the Hawkers surely...

Yep I like this.

 

[BIuebagger]

4 talls ...... please no, not again ...
Unless Charlie isn't right and is a late change or is playing somewhere more up the ground, that is not the right way to go here.

Of course Stratton and Shiels return when we play them. Just our luck.

 

[Soapy V]

Hope to see

B: Dale Thomas, Liam Jones, Caleb Marchbank
HB: Nic Newman, Jacob Weitering, Lachie Plowman

FOLL: Matthew Kreuzer, Sam Petrevski-Seton, Paddy Dow
C: Charlie Curnow, Patrick Cripps, Sam Walsh

HF: Zac Fisher, Levi Casboult, Ed Curnow
F: Marc Murphy, Harry McKay, Mitch McGovern


I/C: Kade Simpson, Jack Silvagni, Lochie O’Brien, Michael Gibbons


That's a very good looking side

Blues by 22 points

 

[Mondyboy]

don't underestimate how big that difference is though.

I don’t. I hope we see Charlie on a wing though.

[setantypants]

Massive forwardline is stupid, but I hope I'm proven wrong.

 

[El Topo]

not enough talls

 

[Laphroaig]

I would have preferred Kennedy, but Curnow is a better selection than Cuners

What's your position on the changes? Or do you think this is bay 13?

Try reading my position, stated two posts above, that structure is going to be a challenge. And keep your tawdry insults to yourself.

 

[Mondyboy]

Wow thats a tall team.
Probs be a late change.

Which would probably end up being Polson for Curnow. Unless they took Cuners with them and left Polson back. We will know when the NB teams get finalised.
