Jim Park Voting: Rd 12: Carlton vs St. Kilda

[crashlander]

Team: F
Our worst game for a long time, and, in a number of ways, our worst game of the year. Before today we have been beaten, but we hadn’t been out-thought before. Our structural weaknesses were on show.

Votes:
We had huge amounts of ball, but we were very ineffective in using it. Statistics are misleading, as every single one of ours had considerable possessions, even some effectiveness in patches.

[1] Plowman Good effort
[0.5] Gibbs Tried hard, but lacked his usual effectiveness.

Lamb: Some positive patches.
Walker: A few late goals.
