AFL Rd 24: Carlton vs GWS
I must admit to be disappointed that we lost.
Team: C+
We were not that bad, just not good enough on the day.
Votes:
I found this week very difficult to give votes for.
[2] Jacob Weitering:
[2] Blake Acres
[1.5] Sam Walsh
[1.5] Charlie Curnow
[1.5] Paddy Dow
[1.5] Nic Newman
[1] Tom de Koning
[1] Adam Saad
[1] George Hewett
[0.5] David Cuningham
[0.5] Matthew Owies
[0.5] Mitch McGovern
[0.5] Zac Fisher
Explanations:
[2] Jacob Weitering: Dominated his position on the ground and kept his man to 1 goal.
[2] Blake Acres: Close to BOG when he was injured. He was dynamic; we lost a lot of momentum when he went off.
[1.5] Sam Walsh: Got a fair bit of the ball. Probably our most effective mid on the day. 4 tackles and 6 clearances.
[1.5] Charlie Curnow: When we got the ball near him, Charlie beat his man comfortably. Kicking it to a pack didn’t work.
[1.5] Paddy Dow: 8 clearances and 3 tackles to go with 21 possessions. Showing why he deserved a game.
[1.5] Nic Newman: Didn’t lose a contest and played good football.
[1] Tom de Koning: Tom tried hard in the ruck, and managed to get his hands on a fair bit of ball, but he couldn’t remotely direct his taps, few of which led to our centre clearances. Some nice clearances and a goal were good.
[1] Adam Saad: A pretty solid job in defence. Provided some nice run.
[1] George Hewett: A solid effort in the middle, but not as effective as he has been recently.
[0.5] David Cuningham: Probably the most possessions David has had all year, but his disposal was nowhere near as effective as they can be. Reasonable, but always under pressure.
[0.5] Matthew Owies: Not huge numbers, but he scored and provided a target.
[0.5] Mitch McGovern: A solid game back in defence.
[0.5] Zac Fisher: 24 possessions, but not as damaging as he has been.
Honourable Mentions:
Lachie Fogarty: Like David Cuningham, Fog had close to his best numbers for the year. However, his possessions didn’t hurt as much as they have for much of this year.
Adam Cerra: The quietest 23 possession game Adam has ever had.
Brodie Kemp: Reasonable in defence and provided a target late in the game.
Caleb Marchbank: 9 possessions for a quarter and a bit wasn’t bad. Some good intercept marks, too.
