AFL Rd 17 2024 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs GWS

[kruddler]

It wasn't a what if, it actually happened.

You own posts expose the hypocrisy of your position, we all know our depth is weakest in KPP options. Like when just yesterday you question why we didn't go for Ben McKay, not that he'd be much use if he wasn't in the 22 on the day.

OK, lets explain 7 years of comments and 1 post for all the slow kids out there. (Psst.....thats you )

We do NOT have a capable KPD behind Weitering. This has been an ongoing discussion for years.
We have shoehorned players into that position with Kemp, McGovern and Marchbank. Young is KPD size, but is devoid of all confidence.

So since we continue to ignore this via trade and via draft because "Their simply isn't any KP talent available" and someone like Ben McKay pops up and we do absolutely nothing about it, then that is mismanagement. I called people out on it, as did others.

So if and when your #1 guy goes down in a match, you don't need to shoehorn a 2nd ruck to cover him, you have a capable #2 to step up into that role and not ask too much from a 'KPD' who many think should be a winger or midfielder.
"Who says that?"

You do...

Must admit haven't seen him play this season, the HBF game I refer to might have been 2019 or 2020.

Wing makes sense because I recall him having good run, but turned like the Titanic, suited to positions that he can keep the ball in front of him.

Would he play HBF/Wing for us and release Kemp into the midfield rotations?

...and that took all of 30 seconds to find. I'm sure there is plenty more i can find as well.
Thank you for proving my point for me. We don't have a genuine 2nd KPD, we have shoehorned players into that role.

What is it that you were saying about a single point of failure?? Weitering has been and always will be that single point until we can find someone who can genuinly perform on the gun players.


So how about we deal with reality and stop trying to play the 'what if' game AFTER the fact.
