Game Day Rnd 5 - Carlton v Bulldogs Game Day Discussion

[Coops93]

I've seen a few people mention that Charlie was surfing on Wednesday, which may have contributed to him being out today (not saying he was injured by it, but no way surfing is an ideal recovery activity coming off a knee injury, so could've made it a bit worse), can anyone corroborate this?

My point is, one player isn’t going to mean winning or losing for us. Not Charlie not anyone.

We're probably not going to win regardless of who plays, but not seeing Charlie get some momentum going this season is what's frustrating. He needs a game where he plays well and gets his confidence back. Obviously, that's not going to happen today.

Back to the good old days of a late out

It means we’ll bomb to McKay all game with five blokes hanging off him.

Just like we have all year and all of last year when Curnow was the lone target down there.


Also would be good for McKay and Curnow to play some more footy together ASAP.

About to head in with my daughter. Hopefully she’s laughing and smiling at the end of this one unlike the crying of last week.
Bout time everything went our way I reckon..
Kick accurately, rub of green with umps, no injuries!! Play with confidence, courage and intensity...and of course resoluteness!! We are surely a chance. Enjoy the day everyone.

Go Blues!!!!!!!!

i knew having 22 competent players at ground level was too much to ask for

Patrick Cripps says hello. I get your point but I’d be damn confident we’d be blown out of the park in most games without Cripps

I have a feeling we are going to win by 1000 points

way too much romance..

 

[Accidental genius]

Would also be nice if Harry decided he wanted to play football today and not be absent.

well after last weeks game it was well established that midfield-forward connection was a high priority focus for training...it will be interesting to see a sign of improvement in the regard..at the very least

 

[M_I_G]

I call BS on him getting a knock and is merely "sore" he hasn't been right sine JLT. Figured something was up when Casboult was the only emergency who didn't play yesterday.

I hear ya
Shouldn’t have played last week either

 

[JohnnyFontane90]

curnow is a better player than cas but he hasn't been that good this year (due to injury or whatever) so not sure what all the fuss is about.

because with levi in the team when the ball hits ground level it's 22 vs 21. bulldogs are very strong at ground level anyway so i honestly couldn't think of a worse player to bring into this particular game.

we're better off playing JSOS as a 3rd tall and putting kennedy in the midfield.

once again bolton thinks height scores goals despite an absolute avalanche of evidence to the contrary.

Bloody hate the late change. No disrespect to Levi but I'd rather play with 17 On the field when it hits the ground. He's just gotta jump at everything today. Not confident.

If history is anything to go by; Curnow will have a minor knee clean up this week and miss 4-6

Cas hasn't really put a foot wrong when the ball has hit the ground this year. In fact he's nailed a few beautiful kicks around the ground and set up Sam Walsh's first goal with a very composed bit of play.

He's has his limitations and has been very poor in this area in the past, but you have to acknowledge when he's been ok.

 

[PrendersBigEngine]

Watch ot for JSOS today. Will be hungry and has a point to prove. Expecting mid field minutes too. Will get under thier guard.

Yeah we can also put Jack in the ruck when MK needs a break

 

[cfc4life]

Starting to worry about Charlie. He can't get a proper run at it. Is something going on in the background.

 

[gardiner stand]

Wtf to they do at training? Someone injured every week

 

[HARKER]

We'll want to be marking everything today as otherwise we'll be run off our feet.

This game may be talked about either one team being way too tall, or way too small.

Shan you know supporters need a scapegoat, they now have 2 in Polson and Levi

 

[dumb]

casboult in probably means too tall again.
