JLT 2018: Carlton vs St Kilda at Ikon on Wednesday

I realise this is very early in the story.  Given the gushing over Gibbs' game, interesting to see the other side of the deal.
Gibbs got us two picks which went on to become Kennedy and OB.  Kennedy looks a best 22 player already, OB, I'm not sure.

Paddy Dow probably did more to fill the Gibbs gap than anyone else.

Gibbs is a quality player and will not be replaced by any one player though.  You could argue him in and Paddy playing would have given us more in the short term than o brien and Kennedy.

Long term it makes sense to have gone the route we have and why it had to happen but no one player will "replace" Gibbs potential influence.

Notice no one talking about Daisy?  Obviously his game was pretty good particularly when the game was running away from us in the third quarter.
