Post Game Analysis: AFL 2021 Rd 12: Carlton vs West Coast

[Micky0]

We have been beaten, confortably, but a 2nd's team and quite honestly we've been doing this for many years so it's hard to see were the improvements have come. Had to laugh when BT on the box today patronised us by saying at least we weren't being beaten by 100+ points anymore. Well Brian, maybe that had something to do with us playing a 2nd's team, no?


Onto the positives,
1. I think Dow did enough to stay in the side. Well I hope so. No point in continuing with spuds like Setterfield. He is officially cooked. Seeya later.
2. I think SOS has had another success with Stocker. Time to release him from the BP and play him on the ball. What is the point of him playing in a BP
3. Jack S was terrific today (still on one shoulder I believe). If only we could extract his heart and split it into 5 separate pieces to then be transplanted into others in the team.
4. TDK should be played more as the 1st ruck and Pitt, as serviceable as is he is, needs to be "managed".
5. Week off next week so we can all relax and enjoy our weekend.

Agree. Dow has skills, still saw him not put pressure on the opponent which is so frustrating but generally he did some smart things when he got the ball.

Really really disappointed in Murph today, it looked almost intentional his pathetic disposal time and again. He is that beat too slow now too. Done.
