Re: Post Game Participation: AFL Rd 16: Carlton vs Sydney at Metricon - Micky0 - 09-08-2020
And stuff playing him against his old team. Think he should be dropped for the rest of the season. Would prefer to have Gibbs back, at least he has footy smarts and skills, this guy is just taking the piss.

I thought Martin into the middle in the 2nd was instrumental in getting us back into the game.
Recovery led by Cripps, Martin, TDK, Walsh, Newnes, SPS, Fisher and Plowman... Weiters a rock and Doc improved as the game went on.
Owies showed glimpses. Cause for optimism.
Meat a vast improvement... as others noted, he's much better when he gets ruck duty.
TDK is a gun.
Why bother with Cuningham, the bloke just cannot exploit his own talent. Such a waste... and should not play seniors footy again.
Disappointed in Murphy... again, some nice things but same old, same old... tackles that don't stick, hangs back and can put the aggott right on the chest of an opponent. Has not only lost a yard, but also a second or two in the reflex dept.
Cottrell... YFB. Coming along nicely. That goal celebration is the stuff of billboards. Love it.
H has conquered the yips... just play on!
Fisher, always dangerous.
Simmo and Ed, every reliable.
McGovern... 23 metres gained. Just plain lazy. Must be dropped, along with Cuningham.
Again with the shizen qtr... 7 goal head start, FFS. Brilliant, character filled come back.
Will probably lose Martin to a calf (season), should drop Cuningham and McGovern if we're fair-dinkum. Gibbons, Kennedy and Edwardo back in. Ed for Cuningham, Gibbons for Martin and Kennedy for McGovern.
Walsh BOG by a country mile... 600 metres gained.

Been on the predictor. If the Dogs, Giants and Dees lose one then we have to beat Adelaide well, a close win won't likely do, and Brisbane (ouch...good luck) and we get in. We need to get the percentage to around 102%. Then we get a trip to Perth.....oh yay.
Tough ask but it's good that we are somehow still playing for a finals spot 2nd last match. Somehow keep hanging in. We should be near entrenched but hope we learn from that.

The gov stunk it up again and is badly out of form. He should be dropped for Kennedy.
Even so. He's a good player when in form. I haven't given up on him yet.

We just can't seem to get all 22 humming along and contributing. Last night showed why I have been saying McGovern needs to GTFO of our club. Ditto Cunningham. People going on about SPS's game, pfft, he can go also.
Cameron Bruce also needs to go, we need a fwd line coach that has some semblance of a clue and that can introduce a system that our "football mental" lightweights can cope with. This year is shot but for FFS, get a specialist goal kicking coach back at the club. Sav, Fev, Dunstall, someone that again has some idea of how to teach all our guys how to kick a football from a set shot.
I turned it off after they kicked the 6th as it was just too hard to watch. Taken was on, at least I know Liam Neeson shoots straight. I found out Carlton won via text so I watched the game from that point on. Showed some ticker to get back from 6.5 goals down, never should have got in that predicament in the first place. Can't help but be negative after that, sorry.

We also need at least any 2 of these....
1. Pies to lose both (GC and Port)
2. Dogs to lose one (Freo and Haw)
3. Gws to lose one game (Mel+Stk)*
4. Dees to lose one game (GWS+Ess)*
...and no big blowout wins for dogs or gws as their % will be about the same as ours.
* Note, GWS and Dees play eachother. Whoever wins that, needs to lose the last week. Whoever loses that can win the following week.

Odds aren't in our favor that's for sure. Suppose where's there's life there's hope.

Good win, but as others have said Sydney’s 7 goal start was unacceptable and really exposed our coaching preparation especially with respect to going inside 50 against the swans.
Very pleased to say that I was wrong on Plowman vs Papley. Seemed to me that we were going to get a repeat of the Jaidyn Stephenson running around Plowman but he proved me wrong. Still think we’re missing a fast small/medium defender in the Jed Bews, Rory Laird mould.
SPS to the midfield must happen.
