FL Rd 13: Carlton vs Essendon
A third really disappointing game in a row. We were the better team for 3 quarters, but had no idea how to score.
Rating: D+
Votes:
Voting has been difficult of late, as so few of our players are playing dominant games. A lot of guys are going something, but not enough and not together.
[3] Adam Cerra
[2] Jacob Weitering
[1.5] Charlie Curnow
[1.5] Sam Docherty
[1] Sam Walsh
[1] Tom de Koning

[0.5] Matthew Kennedy
[0.5] Alex Cincotta
[0.5] Blake Acres
[0.5] Mitch McGovern
[0.5] Jack Martin
[0.5] Ed Curnow
Explanations:
[3] Adam Cerra: Our most effective player, even he struggled to get a centre clearance.
[2] Jacob Weitering: Thrashed his opponents. Back into something like form.
[1.5] Charlie Curnow: Normally 17 possessions for a key forward would be a brilliant game, but 2 goals 4 really hurt.
[1.5] Sam Docherty: Doc was strong, but his disposal was not what we need it to be.
[1] Sam Walsh: Never has Sam Walsh had 35 possessions that meant so little.
[1] Tom de Koning: One of Tom’s better ruck efforts. Unfortunately, we still could get a centre clearance.
[1] Adam Saad: Did his job and took his small forward to the cleaners.
[1] Brodie Kemp: A very solid game in defence. Producing some nice things.
[0.5] Matthew Kennedy: Worked his guts out but couldn’t buy a centre clearance.
[0.5] Alex Cincotta: Did his job and kicked a goal. On the improve.
[0.5] Blake Acres: Got the ball well enough but doesn’t hurt enough when he gets them.
[0.5] Mitch McGovern: Had a couple of rough patches but he did improve, and he did a decent job.
[0.5] Jack Martin: One quarter of good stuff.
[0.5] Ed Curnow: An excellent job in the first half keeping Merrett very quiet.
Honourable Mentions:
Harry McKay Not bad but didn’t make the most of his chances.
Matthew Owies: At least he was dangerous.
