AFL 2023 Preliminary Final Carlton vs Brisbane Post Game Prognostications

[ElwoodBlues1]

He kicked 24 goals from 20 games this year. At the same age in 2006 Betts kicked 20 goals from 21 games.

Eddie's break out year was 2009 when he kicked 38 goals.

I think Motlop has a bit more upside/variety to his game than just being a specialist forward pocket , Id equate him more to a promising Jack Martin type than say a specialist small goalkicker like Eddie was. Motlop could be run through the middle and is capable of getting 20 possies a game imo and I wouldnt be consigning him to be a stay at home small crumbing forward which I think is what Cookie is asking for. 24 goals is a very good effort given how we started the season and while I dont expect him to reach Eddies numbers in goals kicked I think he can be a more versatile player like I said and thats how I would be judging him rather than goals kicked.
