Post Game Passion AFL Rd 10: Carlton vs St Kilda

[Woodstock]

Cripps got off to a good start but I thought his opponent Steele was very good with 28 possies and 10 tackles and the Saints mids combined efforts
wore us down. Thought we failed again to help Cripps and the work load is wearing him down....Dow and Fisher were unsighted and Kennedy didnt have any real impact.

EB. If you had the opportunity, who would you try and snag tomorrow and during trade week to specifically help Cripps? Any stand out that you think, yep, he’s the one. Call Juddy and ready the Plane. Is it The Rabbit or someone more imposing who has a bit of Dog in him? You must have a list

Grundy

Yes, same here.

But it's always Cripps versus the rest.  Where are the other mids?  They should be ashamed of themselves.  Do half of them even turn up?

Well....
I have been saying for a few years, our culture or work ethic, particularly our mids, has been weak for a long long time. Everyone knows we were down hill skiers when Ratts was coach.
Things have never ever changed.

Will the players be satisfied with the level of effort they brought to today's contest?
The big danger is they might be, when in fact they probably need to take it to another level.
They were good for parts, but it wasn't sustained.
We've seen much better this season.

Walsh isn't a downhill skier, he's putting some of our so-called highly talented mids to shame every week

I saw this on the Club web site - Ed's clearly buying into Bolt's warm and fuzzy mediocrity is ok mantra - cos we're getting better!  :-[ :-[

Disappointing garbage from a senior player.

Our blokes, overall, were poor today. Many were very poor.

Woody ...Coniglio would give us another A grader who would draw a tag and heat off Cripps and is probably one for Matho and some Italian cuisine on the plane.
If I wanted strictly support for Cripps and what he was doing I would look at Luke Shuey who can win his own footy, and is a big time player who can win games and is very durable.

If I wanted to create more depth in the midfield and a bit of everything I would throw lots of money at the Crouch Brothers.....Matt is a class act and wins more ball than most and Brad
while not as good is more than handy and a reasonable size.

You want purely an agro mongrel type then Sam Pepper-Powell would be my choice....

Nice to dream isnt it?   re: Grundy...made it clear its Collingwood or back to SA and probably the Crows.
