We are last in the league for overall clearances and centre square clearances...Cripps has been doing a mighty job but the rest are bludging....
11 marks inside 50..there are marks and there are marks..no use averaging well if they are 10m chip kicks sideways, backwards and towards the boundary etc etc...
Levi can take a mark(sick of talking/ hearing about his kicking) but what about the rest of the forwards.....?

WE are last, but Cripps is 1st in the league.
Any danger some of our senior blokes can pull their finger out at all? I know we lost one of the best to ever play the game in Judd, and Carrazzo is a B+F winner who also leaves a hole, but Murphy is a former AFL MVP winner and Gibbs has more than enough talent to make a difference if we could get the application out of him.
Time for the senior blokes to step up!

Apparently there are lots of elite small forwards in this years draft, we are missing one of those. Probably need lots of picks inside top 20 again and fill up the list with two-way hard running smalls

In a nutshell. That is a disgraceful stat for Furphy and Jibbs. I would say Nick Graham has a few clearances as well.

Our senior blokes are having a 'delayed' start to the season.

I'll give you a few other stats that are also pretty disgraceful.
Stats are per game (avg)
Carlton is last in the league for tackles.
Cripps is =4th in the league for tackles
Carlton is 2nd last in the league for contested possessions.
Cripps is =4th in the league for contested possessions
We are 4th in league for hitouts
We are 4th in the league for disposal efficiency
We are 8th best in Uncontested possessions
We are 8th in the league for bounces
We are 4th last in 1%ers
We are 2nd last in the league for Contested possessions
We are 2nd last in the league for Goals
We are 2nd last in the league for Goal assists
We are 2nd last in the league for Goal accuracy
Summary, we get the ball out of the ruck, but cannot get the ball out of the centre.
If we don't have the ball, or the ball is in dispute, we can't get it back
Once we have the ball, we can find a teammate in open space relatively well to run and carry.
We cannot get the ball inside 50, but when we do we go to Casboult who is =11th in the league for contested marks, and =14th in the league for marks inside 50.
Unfortunately, he is =124th in the league for goals per game.
and =277th for goal accuracy!
So in short, we are soft and we have a spud for a FF.

You would be saying wrong if you did. Graham is averaging 1.2 clearances and Gibbs is on 2.2. Ed Curnow is our second ranked player with 3.2.
Re: Rd. 5 - Pre Game Thread - Blues V Dockers - PassIt2Carrots - 04-23-2016
I made mention of this in the first two rounds.....the amount of time that Jibbs and Furphy get their hands on the ball in the centre bounces but the opposition come away with it because they fumble or in Furphy's case just drop the ball and throw themselves on the ground looking for the free rather than cop the tackle and dish it off. Just disgraceful. I repeat, we cannot progress with these two out there running the show. The remoras will look to latch on to Cripps back for a free ride, it's what they've done their whole careers bar one season each.

Okay so replace Graham with Curnow, still reads the same, pathetic from our two faux leaders. They are looking to sit back whilst others do the grunt work, as those stats would suggest.

Yeah our leaders need to show the way with tackling. Didn't Ratten have a tackling coach? We need one.
