Post Game-Carlton v Collingwood

[LP]

If we had Casboult, Plowman and Kreuzer, we would have won!

I initially thought the very same, but....

Perhaps Kreuzer was a loss, he was having far more influence than Grundy despite Grundy winning taps.

I'm not sure the others were that much of a loss, we may actually have been better because of their absence. I had Rowe among our best as an influential player despite his lack of possessions, I doubt that would have happened if the others were out there! In some ways we got an insight into the positive effects and influence of work-rate and aggression. Would either of the two outs had the same influence!
