Without Walsh and the tiges having the 2 GWS boys the mid battle will be very interesting. Game could be won or lost right there.

Nankervis, Prestia & Hopper as the primary ruck/rover combo.

Arguably the best group of mid-fwds in the comp with Martin, Bolton, Taranto, Graham & (supposedly) Cotchin.

Strong transition game as well with Rioli, Vlaustin, Pickett, Ralphsmith, Sonsie.

They’re deep, no doubt about it.

We wouldn’t want to be holding out for a seven goal final term again.

Be looking at 7 in the third and 6 in the last.

Some positive news which I wish was positive injury news for one of our players but I'll take it. Also if Hawkins doubtful for round 1 he'd have to be doubtful for round 2 against us too.

Definitely.

Got to get him through to at least the ten minute mark of the second quarter.

These are the Carlton v Richmond round 1 teams predicted by Fox sports

Quote:
CARLTON

B: Caleb Marchbank, Jacob Weitering, Lewis Young

HB: Adam Saad, Mitch McGovern, Nic Newman

C: Blake Acres, Patrick Cripps, Adam Cerra

HF: Jack Martin, Charlie Curnow, Jack Silvagni

F: Zac Fisher, Harry McKay, Jesse Motlop

FOLL: Marc Pittonet, Sam Docherty, George Hewett

I/C: Tom De Koning, Matt Kennedy, Matt Owies, Paddy Dow, Brodie Kemp

We say: Injuries to Sam Walsh and Zac Williams mean the best 22 at Carlton won’t be out on the park to start the year, but there’s still plenty of competition for spots. Oliver Hollands doesn’t look to have the frame to compete at the top level just yet and the Blues will take their time with the pick No.11. Sam Docherty is one who has been earmarked to fill the void left by Walsh’s absence, so he could get a run through the middle to start the season. Tom De Koning and Marc Pittonet may end up competing for the same spot, but Michael Voss looks set to give them both a run in the side at first.


https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-2023-predicted-round-1-lineups-sides-squads-analysis-team-news-preseason-updates-injuries-position-changes/news-story/19fc469ee1cb12ebedee3c7aa1b95638

They are predicting Marchbank, McGovern and Martin to be fit.
They have selected Owies Dow and Kemp in the 23.
Hollands and Cowan not ready for senior footy and have to wait.

No love for Plowman who has shown a bit this preseason, Corey Durdin who has a calf sprain but on fire this preseason, OBrien, and nothing about Cottrell who was also flying pre xmas but has been cautiously recovering in a moon boot for last month. Surely he must be ready to play in the praccy games.

Quote:
RICHMOND

B: Dylan Grimes, Robbie Tarrant, Nathan Broad

HB: Nick Vlastuin, Noah Balta, Dan Rioli

C: Kamdyn McIntosh, Jacob Hopper, Marlion Pickett

HF: Tim Taranto, Jack Riewoldt, Shai Bolton

F: Noah Cumberland, Tom Lynch, Maurice Rioli Jr

FOLL: Toby Nankervis, Dion Prestia, Dustin Martin

I/C: Liam Baker, Jayden Short, Trent Cotchin, Tyler Sonsie, Hugo Ralphsmith

We say: That Richmond midfield all of a sudden has plenty of depth. In fact, the whole side looks to have a fair bit of selection pressure, with Josh Gibcus sure to challenge for a return once he overcomes a hamstring concern and Ivan Soldo waiting in the wings behind Toby Nankervis and Ben Miller. Judson Clarke isn’t in here but is another who should be pushing for a spot. Jack Graham’s job getting back into the senior side hasn’t been made any easier by the arrivals, ditto Jack Ross. Hugo Ralphsmith is a likely sub to start the season.

Herald Sun Round 1 Team.

The 2 News Ltd Teams has differing opinions, like us.

CARLTON

B: N. Newman, J. Weitering, M. McGovern

HB: S. Docherty, L. Young, A. Saad

C: L. O’Brien, P. Cripps, B. Acres

HF: Z. Fisher, C. Curnow, J. Motlop

F: J. Silvagni, H. McKay, C. Durdin

Foll: M. Pittonet, A. Cerra, G. Hewett

I/C: M. Kennedy, T. De Koning, M. Owies, B. Kemp

Sub: J. Carroll


Notable absentees: S. Walsh, Z. Williams, M. Cottrell, J. Martin, P. Dow, C. Marchbank, J. Honey, L. Plowman

There are a few injury issues for the Blues to start the season, including Sam Walsh (back), Zac Williams (knee) and Matthew Cottrell (foot). Mitch McGovern and Jack Martin have also had interrupted summers. But the spine looks strong and recruit Blake Acres should instantly add plenty of run on one wing.

It will be interesting to see how Richmond respond to their ruck debacle against Brisbane in the elimination final.
