Pre game profession of faith: AFL 2021 Rd 15: Carlton vs Adelaide

[kruddler]

So wind back to last Thurs, in your mind, what mistakes were made at the selection table?

With an inkling of hindsight (which would've been available to the selection committee)....

Playing Martin. He clearly wasn't fit.
I made a comment in the in-game thread that he could barely walk at one stage (1st or 2nd qtr) and i thought he should be subbed out. For a bloke who is super fast, agile and smooth.....he looked like a miniture version of Levi. Not good enough. He shouldn't have been picked before the bye, and i figured he was fit enough when the picked him, he was not.

I wouldn't have picked Parks.....done nothing.

I would've played Murphy (for Martin).....as least Murphy can run.


All that being said.....i wasn't simply talking about that one game. We've played underdone players all year. Levi should've been dropped about 3 weeks before he was. Williams probably shouldn't have played a few games he did.
I think plenty of people have pointed this out in Thursdays teams over the year.
Ask me again on Thursday and i'll point out what i think is wrong with it.
