Pre Game Preparations: AFL 2021 R3 Carlton vs Fremantle at Marvel

[kruddler]

Fair call

My view may be skewed by the greasy conditions up in the Qld, which made him look a lot more fumbly than he used to be.

Don't discount the fact that he was in a hub for most of last year. That meant his missus was home with 4 kids (and 1 on the way). Eddie is about as big of a family man i've seen in a footy club and it was terrible for him to not have his family around.

Add to the fact he had the racism issues to deal with as well.

I'm surprised he even wanted to play on after all that, would've sucked the life right out of him and i'm not surprised his performances were a little below par because of it.
