Melbourne players were just standing up in our tackles and dishing it off.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

Petracca, Oliver, Hogan, etc., etc., are all about 187cm or taller and 85-90kg, and their small mids are rock hard like Viney.

We have to start looking after the kids as priority one, not throwing them in the deep end and seeing which ones drown!
If you want go down this survival of the fittest route, then you need to enact a very different draft strategy, you need to draft footballers not athletes. Guys like Kane Lambert and Mitch Robinson are the ones who thrive in adversity, we cut or ignore those guys.
