I'm running a little behind, but so much has happened recently that I'm not surprised that I am behind.
Round 10: Carlton vs St Kilda
Another one that got away.
I think one of the things that did Bolton in was the fact that we couldn't beat even an injury ravaged St Kilda, who demonstrated in China just how ordinary they are at the moment. That irritated me no end. But it was a LOT better than the alternative (what we produced against the Drug Cheats).
Points of Interest:
[1] Voters returned this week. We had 14 voters, just one less than for the same round last year. That is a huge difference compared to last week, where only 6 people voted.
[2] This round 13 players deserved a mention. Again, compared to last week's pitiful effort, that is a huge step forward.
[3] Cripps was back in the votes this week, but he is definitely in a quiet patch. Hopefully the change in coach will allow him to get his form back.
[4] Sam Walsh also made a comeback of sorts, after a few ordinary weeks. He was 3rd in the votes this week, equaling his best result so far. Therein lies the future.
[5] The rating this week was also considerably better than last week: 6.69, which represents a D-. Considering how close we were, it appears that most voters were underwhelmed in our effort. Still, it is much better than F.
[6] Casboult managed one of his best vote getting displays, with 229 votes. he hasn't scored this high for a LONG TIME.
[7] Even though Daisy Thomas had been drinking two nights before the game, he still managed to be a useful player and get votes. Maybe they should all have had too much to drink?
