Carlton vs Brisbane Practice Match

[flyboy77]

Fly I love your positively at this time of the year (even though it’s usually gone by round 6) but sorry I just don’t see it.

Doc is a star and once he get into the year I 100% agree we will be better with him in there. Betts will provide something even if for a year or two only till hopefully we get Papely but Martin I’m afraid is the same jury out boat as Kennedy, Settlefield, Dow, obrien, DeKoning, Cunningham and even fisher, Williamson and Marchbank you could add it that list if we took the blue glasses off.
Too many on here pencil these blokes in like they are certainties. Far from it imo.

None habe proven more then the odd good game her and there. All have potential. So what. Every team has these sorts we have lots but until they do what Walsh did last year and do it week in week out they are not players I lock in yet and hence why I still think we won’t trouble many sides this year except the bottom 2-3.

Hope I’m wrong but history tells me I won’t be.

Martin is elite anywhere near his best.

To put him in the same group as that lot is laughable.

Put our list next to Brisvegas' list - I'd say our list is better.

They went from 15th and 5 wins to 2nd and 16 wins overnight.

11 win improvement.

We won 7 in 2019, and lost 8 (i think) by less than 3 goals.

If we don't make the 8 it's a major fail.
