Prediction Round 5, 2025: Changes vs Carlton

[TY24]

Hope Carlton replay the Owies' "f**k Carlton" clip to the players all week to motivate them.

Are you sure you're on the right board?

 

[Goroyals22]

If we still get flogged what are the "credits crew" whingers going to complain about next?

If the young guys are playing each week and you can see learnings and a plan ,who cares what the score is at the end for another 12 months

Just a reminder

I think we are getting flogged regardless

 

[Astro7]

Shake it up Mini...!

'PopGun Midfield' ...I like the sound of that.

 

[RanaNaved]

Cerra is a good one for him. Motlop too skillful for him and I cant even remember seeing Durdin, so no idea about him.

Are you just calling Motlop skillful because he's indigenous?

 

[Scotland]

As is Waterman for Long although I fear that leaves us one tall forward too many. Seems unlikely Allen goes back since Edwards

Could be an opportunity to use Allen or Edwards as a third tall. If Allen is just out of touch but fit it's a sure fire way to get the ball in his hands.

bro clearly hasn't watch much of motlop this year

 

[Proeagle]

Are you just calling Motlop skillful because he's indigenous?

No, I was picturing Motlop side stepping Duggan and then bursting away from him.

 

[Scotland]

Duggan, Cripps, Owies, Graham, Allen

Hamish Davis. Been given way too many opportunities.

 

[RanaNaved]

If we still get flogged what are the "credits crew" whingers going to complain about next?

We probably will get flogged. But every player now knows McQualter will drop you if you don't comply/perform

 

[RanaNaved]

No, I was picturing Motlop side stepping Duggan and then bursting away from him.

Are you high? It's Motlop

 

[Manbearpig77]

Great changes. Well done McQualter. Time to rebuild.

 

[Farmer Lister]

Hutch the ball hound is back in action baby, Gross Hall and Davis all staying onboard. Carlton are gonna rue the day they came up against Mini's young guns.

 

[Keys]

Assume that Cole will be the only non playing emergency since Flynn and Johnston are still in Perth. Means that Rawlinson will return to Perth if he hasn’t already

Do they use Davis as the sub again? Doesn’t seem to be any other options - maybe Hutchinson as someone pointed out earlier given he’s on his way back from injury

Or could it be Hunt

 

[lmach]

Nothing brings this board together like a few form-based omissions

 

[bzparkes]

No, I was picturing Motlop side stepping Duggan and then bursting away from him.

That's fine, because he'll drop the ball doing it, leaving Duggo to freely jog off with it.

[Doashuey]

Good moves, Owies very lucky to survive.

Cant drop em all plus his pressure has been good. Playing against his old team, worth a shot to see if he can feed them some regret.
Owies to kick 4.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Seems tall. Would have preferred Waterman in for a small and Allen down back, rather than adding Edwards, but if there’s anyone to try it against it’s the treacle slow Carlton.

 

[Doashuey]

Whats going on with Bo? Thought with Cole out he would be a natural pick. Or would love to see Grego in.

Disposal efficiency.
That has probably been our biggest issue this year, we have looked very good at times but the errant hand balls or kicks in an attacking chain where we are out have killed us..Normally resulting in a turnover with everyone out of position and an oppo goal.
Bo apparently had a shocker in the WAFL last week, looks like greased lightning with ball in hand but the turns it over. We cant bring another poor ball user into the team, especially a debutant who has never faced AFL level speed. Im sure he can tidy it up but based on last weeks WAFL, he isnt ready to come in just yet.

 

[the harry]

Have we gone too far the other way?

 

[Altum Volantes]

Duggan, Cripps, Owies, Graham, Allen

Don’t forget Liam Ryan - throw in some borderline racism and you’re all set.

 

[UseR2006]

Have we gone too far the other way?

what other way? yes we've gone too far shit.
