This week on theReal Footy podcast,Sam McClure,Jake Niall and Caroline Wilson discuss the “drastically underperforming” Blues. Do Carlton lack depth,or is it a good system that they’re missing? Do they have the right balance? Is the midfield pace problem one they’ve created for themselves? Though the Blues recently had a review,the football program didn’t really change. And the club hasn’t really improved. Is there a coup brewing at board level?
Richmond have been dealing with a confidence issue,going back to their loss to the Western Bulldogs in April,but had a great win against Geelong on Friday night. They showed good signs against the Cats and looked as though they had returned to their premiership-winning style. But is it enough to say the Tigers are back? Can they make top four,and do they even need to?
There’s a fairness problem and an entertainment problem with the fixture given how poor three teams – North Melbourne,Hawthorn and West Coast – are playing this season. Is it just one of those things or should we be critical of some of the clubs? And which is the most vulnerable?
Sydney lost a gettable game to Fremantle in round nine. They’ve had a lot of injuries,but they can be criticised over a couple of key trades in recent years. Is it too soon to write off the Swans?
Plus,why there’s a watch on St Kilda,the Pies are flag favourites,the AFL’s soft cap problem and who has the better forward line – Adelaide or Brisbane?
