Re: Rd 16: In Game Angst: Carlton vs Adelaide - Professer E - 07-10-2016
Stats for our rucks and forwards are damning...
Kreuzer laying heaps of tackles and that's about it.
Entire forward line horrible, NFI.
I thought our defence did well at times considering the ball movement into that zone and the %)%)ed umpiring which made life bloody hard for our blokes. Plowman showed that Jenkins is a wannabe $750 000 sheep dog.

The injury was not pre game, it was in the 1st q.

Mods, let's lock this and move over to the post game thread.

Anyway, glad that's over.
Does anybody else think our team selection may involve a little tanking ?
Nope, our VFL team got smashed again and by the reports on here the best players there in the last few weeks have been Tutt and Dick.

Just too many non contributors today. Lamb, Everett, walker, casboult.
Midfield soundly beaten courtesy of an arm chair ride through their rucks. Liked sumners game, still doesn't get enough of it but looks likely. Cripps is a non event when the ball spreads, worried.
I'd rest weitering too. Just looks cooked.

I was thinking more in terms of the two ruckmen v jones/casboult.

Our club is as low as it can get, you know that is the case when Frankston pumps your development league team.
No wonder the membership is floundering.
VFL Development League Ladder. Frankston were win-less before they bettered the NBs Devs by ten goals!

Our key forward options as of today are Casboult, Jones, Jaksch and Everitt, which speaks for itself.
Jack Silvagni's only 191cm but he's still only 18 so there's some hope, is growth hormone on the banned list?

Says lots for the last 3-4 draft periods, no wins at any level again this week, no players emerging etc

Add to that first rounders like Lucas, Watson and Bootsma and it's no wonder that our list is thin.
