Rd 13: Post Game Patter: Carlton vs GC

[mateinone]

Almost no one will believe this, but 10 minutes into yesterday's game I was REALLY excited about the way Casboult started and thought I might be about to witness his best game in Navy and I was readying to come in and give him effusive praise.

Then he started to die off and then he turned it into a horror show, to the stage I really felt sorry for the big fella, cause I reckon he was giving it a red hot crack, but that ball that was cut off in the 3rd just done his head in.

I seen  someone somewhere saying that he went into the ruck in the last and turned it around for us (unless I read it wrong, it was just on my phone), which isn't true, when he did go into the ruck they got a quick clearance, a Swallow mark and a goal, then Kreuz was back in again.

Anyway, I watched his kicking over a few times yesterday and what I would like to see him try (it can't hurt) is holding the point of the ball pointed back in towards him a bit more. I think it will lead to a better drop and might well help.

Casboult came very close to costing a win last night and it doesn't need to be said here, you could tell and his teammates could tell that he knew it.
