The time to move them on is when the kids have 30 to 50 games under their belt.
If Daisy isn't there tonight they don't get a win and that does incredible damage to the development and confidence of the kids. For me his presence accelerates their development and we should be all for that!
Fair enough.....I reckon Daisy given he has the coaches support and he gives some more of what he gave to today for the rest of the season might prove you right.
I like Levi but he does need to convert batter than he did today but I'm still sticking with theory he makes Kruezer a better player and is useful for us....though as you say, at the right price..

He is basically accused by some sectors of feathering his nest, clinging onto his career at the expense of our youth. But it looks to me like he is working as hard as he can to bring the kids on and make himself redundant.
I'd rather have Daisy doing that than have some other, perhaps more capable, twightlight career spud who gives our kids nothing!
Like him or hate him, he's got an A Grade football brain and works his butt off!
I love this quality in a player, it overcomes, it's a unifying quality that players fall behind.

what was that free kick to gws for with 30 seconds to go....simmo had it i thought. didn't think he even took the ball out... very odd.
Then that final deliberate free at the death, WtF?!

Daisy earned his keep again. How about Gibbs flattening him when he was running out of the centre. When was the last time Gibbs flattened anyone? ;D
He squashed Robbie Gray's head like a tangerine one day. Won us the game against power. And got suspended.

Jack Silvagni needs to become our Crows Tom Lynch. Lead up hard, drop back when required, kick a couple each game and be our link person. He has all the attributes to do it.

Daisy in the right place, three critical touches in as many seconds. Basically won us the game.
away as far as could.
Re: Rd 12: Post Game Passion: Carlton vs GWS - DJC - 06-11-2017
One aspect of the game that pleased me was the defensive work of our midfielders. Our numbers behind the ball gave GWS an advantage at stoppages but, although they won the clearances, hard work from our midfielders, and especially Matty Kreuzer, stopped GWS from capitalising.
Re: Rd 12: Post Game Passion: Carlton vs GWS - LoveNavy - 06-11-2017
Wow. Just wow.
Aside from a couple of short lived lapses, our boys were sensational.
From selection to coaching, to execution. This is one to remember - one for the oldies like Kruez, and the youngsters like Plowman, and the almost forgotten like Jones.
How brilliant was the Jones boy? Big shoes to fill with Rowe out (and ASOS) going down so early. I kept thinking the floodgates would open, but the boys G & D was fierce. Thought Lamb added some class, better than Stevie J afaic.
Levi was great sound the ground, maybe we're playing him out of position too
Daisy earned every $ and no doubt enormous respect from players and coaches alike. Noticed BB giving him last instructions just before q4 started. He did not disappoint. Well done. The Blues brothers were fantastic too. Loved Charlie's strong tackle in the dying minutes. He must have been buggered, but even put in to land seconds.
Our leaders, especially big MK led by example today. What a super lesson for the youngsters. Had the conviction, confidence, commitment, and composure to out class the best. Last time they beat us by about 10 goals.
Take that. The Blues are coming.
Congratulations to all in our 1's and 2's. VERY promising signs for the club as a whole.

Our defence is shaping up very nicely, but it's not just about our back 6, as good as they are. So many times this season, in pretty much all games I have watched, I have heard the commentators say "Carlton have set up really well". Credit to all concerned.
However, both defense and attack win matches. And our defense, as good as they are, had nothing to do with the fact that Greene left his contacts at home.
At any rate, I'm very happy for the win, and very happy that we had a little luck. Plenty of better and more developed teams than us have won in very fortunate circumstances. You have to be in the contest for the luck to have any effect. So well done CFC

What a win, had a weird feeling about this game it felt like the Geelong game last year. Injury early and so on.
Charlie keep steadily keeps improving, has all the commentators drooling over him every week and even Leigh Matthews the other week. They all are worried that we have recruited the best athlete since Buddy.
Cunningham another showing great signs every week and improving a lot. Kreuz playing career best footy. Liam Jones great coaching move, closing speed and marks in defence.
Just so many positives. Footy world is worried they are starting to notice what we are building.
