2018 Rd 10: Pre Game Irritation: Carlton vs Geelong

[Thryleon]

Who cares where he was drafted at. I can list countless first round picks that fail. His draft selection should be a minor factor in whether you select a guy that has been delisted by another struggling club.  And If he would look so good at Hawthorn why did they and 16 other teams pass on him?

My point is these sorts of players take spots on a list and with such a low chance of working out why not retain players like Holman and Gowers instead of selecting hacks that 17 other clubs passed on with their very late picks. 

Mullet was delisted by the team that won the spoon last year.  Doesn't that tell us something.

Love to know how many goal Mullet and O'Shea concede from frees. Clueless, clumsy players that cost us with stupid rookie frees every week.

My point is, that I have already explained why. 



Shawny, its important, because it shows he was talented in his draft crop.  He was taken in amongst a bunch of blokes who cut us up on the weekend.  Christian Petracca, Angus Brayshaw and Jake Lever.  We spent pick 78 on him and needed outside run.  Hes given us a bit of that, and last week played pretty well.  This week, he wasnt the lone ranger in being poor. 


Holman was a handy player, we delisted a few years ago, because at the time, I am guessing he wanted to leave.  Its the only scenario that makes sense.  meanwhile, Gold Coast have picked him up when he was delisted from a spoon side. What makes him different?  Nothing.  Its the same proposition.  Hes working at the moment for Gold Coast, and ours arent quite working out as well, but ultimately have a look at the difference they make to their sides. 

Gold Coast are sitting 15th and have won 3 games.

We are sitting last and have won 1.

Gowers and his mates arent far ahead of us either.
