2018 Rd 16: Post Game Passion: Carlton vs St Kilda

[laj]

Wasn't surprised, losing Kruezer early really hurt us, however, it was the running players that ran us into the ground. Poor errors from senior players desperate to have an impact, when it's going against you, it really goes against you.

Pickett looked short of a gallop, McKay ran out of puff, the younger guys dropped off, and, SPS looked like he couldn't run out the game - certainly trailed his opponent several times.

On the positive side, Dow, O'Brien kept trying, and, there passages of play (in the third/fourth) where the young guys teamed together for some enterprising play, however, simply not enough. Another two seasons into Dow and O'Brien will see them take the next step in my opinion - possibly next year for Dow. We need two of Charlie Curnow, and, another (quicker) version of Cripps.

I disagree with some here, I think Carlton need to trade pick 1 for several top picks and get more talent. We are short still two players I think. Cripps, Charlie, Dow need another two additions in my opinion.

I think so too.
