Rd 22: Pre Game asking for a PP: Carlton vs Melbourne

[Lods]

Personally I think Sumner has more to offer than Boekhorst but only time will tell.

We just might surprise on Sunday. I'm not as pessimistic as many.

I think we'll see an improved effort.
It's mostly the ones we've been expected to do well in that we've played poorly.
Against some of the better sides we've performed fairly well and ran them close.

BB is a better player than Liam Sumner.

Not even close - Sumner has a much greater upside.

[Koutz]

Starting to question BB with his selections.

How does Thomas stay in and Boekhurst gets dropped?

Perhaps, but Sumner just doesn't get the ball and doesn't impact games.  Boekhorst hasn't done much since his return from injury but he has still shown a lot more than Sumner.

To be honest, they are both liabilities on current form.

If we had a proper list, neither would get a gig.

[Professer E]

How the F does Thomas continue to get a game?  Are we tanking?

Sumner>>> Boekhorst... but I agree with DJ that he doesnt get enough of the ball to be a lock in for the future

Probably too accurate. Sumner probably got a go because he has a negative side to his game. Boekhorst's is patchy at best. Boekhorst can be a very good mark, but we just don't see that often enough. Sumner doesn't get off the ground but he does have a reasonable pair of hands.

I can see more of a future in Sumner, but neither of them is close to their best form and neither of them is providing what we desperately need: run and carry and maybe even a crumbing goal.

Thomas' second half last week was good and he can hit targets, which is more than can be said for about half of our current team.
Carlton supporters in general will never accept Daisy as a Carlton player, there's just too much Collingwood history there, but he's a long way from our worst in my opinion.
I'd be surprised if we got within 6 goals tomorrow.
