Rd 5: Post Game Party!: Carlton vs. Fremantle

[jeza]

Don't forget entries in to fwd 50 were shocking. Dunstall would have struggled. That's not Jones fault and I am normally first to knock him. Had 3 shots got 2 so that's an improvement. He can't kick goals from no further than 30 out so staying deep is the ONLY position for him in snrs. Jones, Lamb, E Curnow and Levi all missed shots front on but Freo missed more.
Byrne sensational. When Sheehan gets right can see 3 mad irishmen playing defence for CFC. Thought Kruzer struggled. Not taking marks enough to be damaging. Got his hands on many up fwd for nothing.
Kerridge was great but needs to be told no more short kicks from defence as he has turned it over every game. Rowe was good but Pav is finished. If only Rowe could use the ball as his body work is ok.
Dylan looks lost. Will struggle to get back in def with Simpson owning it and now Byrne. Hope he finds form but I thought he fuoght well in last qtr, as did Phillips, Plow and Sumner. Gives much needed confidence as we tackle the scum. Even my 5 yr old girl hates Essendon...just born that way I presume :-)

Running joke... before opening my 5 y.o. smells the footy card packet and if it stinks like manure he says it's got an Essendon card inside it.

Something is off with our mids. There have been patches in certain games where they appear to have gotten it together but overall they have been really underwhelming. Repeated brain fades and some seriously basic disposals missing the mark. The worrying part is that these aren't the youngsters stuffing it up. Really hope next week is when it all comes together for them.

Defense looking the best it has looked in years with Byrne, Plowman, Weitering, Simo, 2e, Doc - just missing that last big key defender. Shame we missed young Kieran Collins last year. Gee if Glass-McCasker came good we'd be set. Sheehan can only help depth-wise.

Adding Walker and Jaksch (and maybe sneak in SOS) to the forward line would transform it I think. All of a sudden there is a different feel - bit of threat. 

Jones - just nup.
Resting ruckman down there - noooooope.
Buckley isn't a forward pocket.
